Hi Does Anyone Has ICP Before?

Question

Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP), also known as obstetric cholestasis, cholestasis of pregnancy. Something got to do with liver and bile issue, during pregnancy. Had no rash itch on only palm and sole. I read, bby could be born premature or worse, stillborn! Any share of experience and survival? Tq

Pls get checked immediately. My whole body was itching. I thought it was due to hormonal imbalance. Upon doing a blood test. Doctor found I had ICP and has to do an emergency C-section at 37 weeks. The thing abt ICP is, it won't affect the mum.. It will affect the baby. Like u mention chances of premature and worse case stillborn is High

yes, it's true that the symptoms varies. For me it was severe itch at night. From head to feet (sole) till I can't sleep.
