Abstract:
Pemphigoid gestationis is a rare autoimmune skin disorder emerging exclusively during pregnancy. Topical and oral glucocorticoids as well as oral antihistamines are the standard medications administered during pregnancy, aiming to relieve pruritus and to suppress extensive blister formation. Obstetricians should be able to recognize and treat this rare clinical condition accordingly.
