[quote=Anonymous]Up until pregnancy I have had a mild case of Rosacea that comes and goes and generally responded to prescription metrogel when needed. Well not the pregnancy hormones have kicked in (9 weeks) and my face is a mess. I wake up with my cheeks fully inflamed and little postules all over my cheeks. everything is irritating to my skin. I already have given up caffiene, alcohol, spicy foods (all common triggers). I don't want to use metrogel as from everyting I have read its not necessarily proven to be safe during pregnancy esepcially for extended use. I can't get in to see my dermatologist for another 6 weeks. I can only imagine what my face will look like by then! Anyone have any other suggested meds or home remedies that have helped them? I can't even use soap on my face right now its so irritated.[/quote]
