Article Synopsis
- Pemphigoid gestationis (PG) is a rare autoimmune skin condition that appears during pregnancy, often causing itchy blisters due to the immune system attacking a specific protein in the skin.
- This report details three unique cases of PG, highlighting different symptoms, treatments, and delivery methods: a 32-year-old woman treated with oral prednisone, a 37-year-old woman who improved with topical steroids, and a 35-year-old woman who required an emergency cesarean section due to fetal concerns.
- The cases indicate that PG can vary greatly in its presentation and impact on pregnancy, emphasizing the need for early diagnosis and tailored treatment plans to ensure the best results for mothers and babies.
