Celina Jaitly Speaks Out on Rare Pregnancy Liver Condition
Celina Jaitly, a Bollywood actress, talked about a liver issue called cholestasis that she had during her twin pregnancies.
This condition can make a pregnant woman feel very itchy and can cause problems for her baby.

She wants other pregnant women to know about it and get checked if they have itching.
Early detection can help mothers and babies stay safe.
