When skin allergies occur, they do not affect the normal chances of pregnancy, but they do have some impact on the fetus after pregnancy. This is because skin allergies are reactions to certain allergens, and the response to allergens varies from person to person. Some individuals might have a higher sensitivity, while others may show little to no symptoms.
Beyond the impacts these allergic reactions have on the body, there is also the use of medicinal solutions for treatment during allergic episodes. It is advised to identify the allergen causing the skin allergy before trying to conceive, and to avoid it as much as possible while planning for pregnancy.
