Nocturnal Itchiness

Nocturnal Itchiness

WHY IS OUR SKIN MORE PRONE TO ITCHINESS AT NIGHT?

Bedtime itchy skin aka nocturnal itching is actually a thing! You are not alone. Nothing is worse than the urge to itch and scratch your skin in the middle of the night. This isn't random, there are underlying conditions that cause this. Learn them:

1. The skin’s ability to retain water is low at night. Our body’s large surface area allows water to pass through the skin’s layer and evaporate, thus, dehydrating it.

2. Our body temperature and blood flow naturally increase at night to keep the body warm. The increase in heat against the surface of the skin causes itchiness.

3. The production of inflammation reducing hormones i.e. cortisol is at its lowest at night, whereas certain itch inducing hormones  are released in higher quantities.
