Why are women who are pregnant at more of a risk for cherry angiomas?

Though the reason for their origin is unknown, cherry angiomas are often seen among people who are pregnant. Studies show that hormones and high prolactin levels (a hormone made by your pituitary gland) may be a factor in their development on your skin during pregnancy. Often, cherry angiomas will involute (reduce in size or disappear on their own) after delivery.
