Glycolic Acid The Ordinary During Pregnancy
On the use of The Ordinary glycolic acid products during pregnancy
During pregnancy, it is necessary to be cautious about the use of medicinal substances. The advantages and disadvantages of the glycolic acid products produced by The Ordinary need to be studied in detail.

Glycolic acid belongs to the class of fruit acids. Its function in skin care can exfoliate the cuticles, make the skin delicate and smooth, promote metabolism, and brighten the skin with light spots. However, women during pregnancy have different physical conditions than usual.

From a physiological point of view, the skin is more sensitive during pregnancy, and the barrier function may change. The exfoliation of glycolic acid may make the skin more susceptible to irritation, causing redness, swelling, itching and other discomfort, which adds to the psychological and physical burden of pregnant women. And there may be changes in the skin's absorption capacity during pregnancy. It is unknown whether glycolic acid may affect the fetus through the placenta after percutaneous absorption. Although there is no conclusive study to show that it must be harmful to the fetus, it is necessary to prevent it for the health of the mother and baby.

According to medical advice, many doctors advocate that skin care during pregnancy should be gentle and safe. If it is not necessary, do not easily use products containing glycolic acid that are irritating to a certain extent. If skin problems are serious and need to be improved with skin care products, consult a doctor first and follow the doctor's advice.

In short, the risk of using The Ordinary glycolic acid products during pregnancy is unpredictable. For the safety of the fetus and the pregnant woman herself, you should be cautious and should not use it rashly.
