Abstract in brief

Pruritus in pregnancy is a common and often burdensome symptom that can indicate pregnancy-specific skin conditions like atopic eruption, polymorphic eruption, pemphigoid gestationis, or intrahepatic cholestasis, or may occur independently by chance.
Despite its high prevalence, healthcare providers often underestimate pruritus, and there is limited data on safe and effective treatments for this symptom during pregnancy.
Effective management requires understanding the epidemiology, possible causes, clinical features, and diagnostic methods of pregnancy-related skin conditions, along with a careful consideration of treatment risks and benefits for both mother and fetus.
