Abstract
Allergic diseases arising in pregnancy may pose a challenge. Skin test results may be influenced by hormonal factors and fetal risk due to the skin testing procedure cannot be excluded. Also, several anti-allergic drugs are not licensed or are even contraindicated in pregnancy. This paper reviews diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in pregnant women.
