In pregnancy, also often the mother remains reluctant in getting exposed to biological medicines for her concern to the growing fetus. In such conditions, Ayurveda, the traditional health care system from India is often looked as a safe alternative to offer symptom resolution and safe continuation of pregnancy without the discomforts of urticaria. This case report is an illustration in this regard.
