Hi,
Thanks for your question.
Itching during pregnancy is not that simple. It may be a sign of IHCP ( intra hepatic cholestasis of pregnancy).This condition is associated with adverse fetal outcome. Baby also need to be delivered at an early stage.
Please check your liver functions, & report this to your Gynecologist. Itching is controlled by Anti-histamines & Ursodeoxycholic acid. You may also need Vitamin-K tablets to save you from some potential complications. Discuss this with your doctor to get a prescription.
Wish you all the best.
Take care.
