While pregnant women may often feel bloated and exhausted, friends and family members tend to think they look as beautiful as ever. “You’re glowing,” is uttered so often towards pregnant women, that “pregnancy glow” has long been included in the list of interesting pregnancy symptoms. Caused by a mixture of hormonal changes and increased blood flow affecting the oil levels and the brightness of women’s complexions, many pregnant women are blessed with dewy, rosy cheeks and a naturally slightly flushed look. Dr. Anna Targonskaya, an OB-GYN and medical advisor, wrote a piece on pregnancy glow for Flo Health explaining that it can even extend beyond facial features. She mentioned that “longer, shinier hair and stronger, faster-growing nails are [side effects] of pregnancy that many women enjoy” as well. There are no set rules on when or for how long the coveted “glow” will last, but Targonskaya wrote that “most women tend to be extra radiant during the second trimester as the changes in their body become more intense”.
