Answer: Apply a mix of coconut oil, almond oil, olive oil and castor oil in equal measure. Use this twice a day. It will provide relief. As your skin is stretching it's getting dry due to wch you are experiencing itchiness.
Other than this keep yourself hydrated, add foods wch are rich in omega 3 and natural oils this will maintain the elasticity of the skin.
If itchiness persists then you can get your liver checked as sometimes due to liver infection one might feel itchiness all over body.
take care.

Question: hi i m 15 weeks pregnant. i m facing a itching on my vaginal portion. what should i do?
Answer: Because there's an increase in vaginal discharge during pregnancy, it can cause irritation of the skin of the vulva. So it could just be because of your discharge, or it could be a sign of an infection like a yeast infection, UTI etc.
You can find some relief with baking soda baths (soaking in it a bit). Or you can use over the counter products like Vagisil. You can also look more into how to change the pH with diet and the like. I read that yogurt will helps. Keep that area dry & clean, use proper undies & maintain hygiene. Use mild products on skin & wear loose clothes & let it breathe.
If things get worse pls consult ur doc
