Not this specifically, but my skin conditions (general eczema and scalp psoriasis) both pretty much cleared up in pregnancy and while I was breastfeeding. Unfortunately they're back worse than ever now.

Oh ok,so there is a chance of it to be actually better during pregnancy. I developed vulvar eczma at the ver end of my last pregnancy and it flared up so badly in weeks after I had my baby. It took the doctors over 6 months to refer me to vulvar clinic where I got my diagnosis. It took my body over 2 years to settle down eczma with some flare ups in between. I'm pregnant again and scared it will come back with vengeance x
