Abstract 

Miscellaneous groups of dermatoses are associated with pregnancy and affected by gestation, but they do not coincide with any known classifications. They are inflammatory in nature and include psoriasis, acne, hidradenitis suppurativa, atopic dermatitis, and erythema multiforme. Such dermatoses can either improve or worsen during pregnancy. This review focuses on the changes that can occur during the pregnant state.
