Brief Answer:
dry skin

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

It is very common for the skin to get dry in pregnancy which occurs due to hormonal changes.

She can apply any good moisturiser either aloevera based or calamine based.

Also, ask her to apply Luliconazole cream at night in the itchy areas this prevents or treats fungal infections which are common again.

Regards,
