Dermatoses of pregnancy
Specialty Dermatology, obstetrics

Dermatoses of pregnancy are the inflammatory skin diseases that are specific to women while they are pregnant. [1] While some use the term 'polymorphic eruption of pregnancy' to cover these, [2] this term is a synonym used in the UK for Pruritic urticarial papules and plaques of pregnancy, [3] which is the commonest of these skin conditions. [1]

Skin diseases seen during pregnancy include: [1] [4] [5] [6]
