#360 Some Clarity To The Confusion of Rashes In Pregnancy

#360 Some Clarity To The Confusion of Rashes In Pregnancy

Skin disorders exclusive to pregnant women have always been puzzling to Blyss & Dr. Stu. How do we know one from the other? Today we look at the dermatoses of pregnancy and differentiate the physiologic from the pathologic.

You'll hear us dissect the five major types of rashes that can puzzle even seasoned healthcare professionals, the challenges of medical information access, and personal accounts of birth timing, premature labor, and the vital role of clear clinical documentation. We also delve into the nuances of supporting births in the community, examining the value of trust and adaptability when changes arise, such as a different midwife attending a birth, and discussing the impact of Group B Streptococcus (GBS) testing on hospital transfers and treatment.

We also take a critical eye to medical misinformation spread by healthcare professionals on social media and the exasperating experiences with insurance companies, using personal anecdotes to highlight the issues. We also examine a range of skin and hair changes during pregnancy, and take a thought-provoking look at how control over medical literature might shape our understanding of autoimmune diseases and their potential environmental triggers.

Blyss shares a birthkeeper dilemma while Dr. Stu does his civic duty.

Key highlights:

  • Medical misinformation and insurance frustrations
  • How skin conditions affect pregnancy
  • Many rashes are annoying but not harmful
  • What can be done for relief from pregnancy rashes?
  • Exploring medical literature and information control
