Pregnancy Dandruff?!

[AbbiL0u]

Hope you’re all okay! I am 15 weeks, and have had dandruff for the whole of my pregnancy. It isn’t something I’ve struggled with before, and originally put down to burning my scalp on holiday in February. It seems to be getting worse and worse - is this a pregnancy symptom for anyone else?! Does anyone have any tips if so, I’ve read not to use anti-dandruff shampoo when pregnant 😩

@AbbiL0u I am 37 weeks and have had this on and of through my pregnancy 🤦‍♀️🙄 sometimes it has been really bad

Never had it with my 1st, but I put it down to being so sick the whole pregnancy and my body maybe not getting enough vitamins/ minerals as it should. My hair has also been very dry and in terrible condition, 1st pregnancy my hair grew like crazy and was in such good condition!

I haven't got pregnancy dandruff but have had dandruff all my life. I made the mistake of using anti dandruff shampoos, I did this for years. I used a friends coconut shampoo and the dandruff literally disappeared!

I've started using coconut shampoo, if moistures my scalp and keeps the dandruff at bay.
