Is it safe to bleach your body and face during pregnancy?

It’s absolutely safe to bleach your face, hands, legs, underarms and back during pregnancy. Nonetheless, bleaching the belly region isn’t advocated. External application of bleach inhibits the likelihood of it permeating in the blood stream and decreases the chance of birth defects. Hydrogen peroxide within the bleach is broken down readily and isn’t consumed rapidly from the body. It is possible to, though,, pick bleach with natural ingredients, like turmeric, to prevent queasiness or nausea in the scent of the activator.

Few things to think about before and while bleaching your body
♥ The skin becomes more sensitive during pregnancy. So a patch test on a small place before you bleach your face or body to check for discomfort or allergy is preferred.

♥ Take a shower or rinse your body with cold water. This may help shrink the pores and minimise the possibility of bleach seeping deep in your skin.

♥ Sit in a well-ventilated place to prevent inhaling the fumes as well as the strong scent of the bleach.

♥ Don’t keep the bleach in your skin for quite a long time.

♥ You also need to avoid bleaching your skin too frequently during pregnancy. Using bleach monthly isn’t dangerous.
