After successful conception, every woman's hormone secretion in the body will change. In addition, as the fetus grows, the abdominal muscles will undergo continuous cell breakage due to being pulled and stretched, resulting in unsightly stretch marks. So, how long should women use to prevent stretch marks during pregnancy?
In fact, for women, if they want to prevent the appearance of stretch marks, they should make corresponding preparations before pregnancy. If they have not done this before pregnancy, they should adopt some methods in the early stages of pregnancy to control the appearance of stretch marks in a timely manner.
Before pregnancy, women should not only eat more foods rich in collagen and protein to increase skin elasticity and vitality, but also do more physical exercise, such as fitness exercises and abdominal muscle exercises, which can effectively enhance the tension of abdominal muscles and reduce the chance of collagen fiber breakage in the abdomen after pregnancy.
Throughout the entire stage of pregnancy, in addition to maintaining good dietary habits and eating more foods such as pig trotters and fish skins to increase skin elasticity, pregnant women should also control their weight. Because if weight increases too quickly, it can easily lead to weakened skin repair ability and an increase in stretch marks during pregnancy.
Around three months of pregnancy, women can use olive oil and apply it daily to their abdomen and thighs for appropriate circular massage, which can also effectively prevent stretch marks during pregnancy.
