What is pollen allergy?
It should be noted that there are many French people who are allergic to pollens. Indeed, no less than 25% of the French population suffers from this type of allergy. It should be noted that symptoms can appear at three different times during the year:
- At the end of winter: it is tree pollen.
- In the spring: it's grass pollen.
- At the end of summer and at the end of autumn: these are the pollens of grasses and ragweed.
When a person suffers from pollen allergy, it should be noted that the symptoms observed may be different. Note also that when you go to see a doctor, it should be noted that the diagnosis can be difficult to make. Indeed, the symptoms can also be common to other pathologies. So just because you have certain symptoms doesn't necessarily mean it's related to a particular allergy.
What are the symptoms of a pollen allergy?
Here are the different symptoms you can have if you suffer from a pollen allergy:
- Hay fever or allergic rhinitis: this can therefore lead to itching, runny, stuffy nose or even sneezing.
- Asthma: wheezing, coughing, difficulty breathing or chest tightness.
- Conjunctivitis: itching, redness or tearing.
- Cough.
Of course, you can have several of these symptoms, but also only one. Note also that the period in which you have these symptoms is important.
What are the main allergenic pollens?
It is important to take into account that different pollens can be allergenic. These can be found in different places in France, if necessary. Here is a list of these:
- Grasses.
- Birch and parietaria: found mainly in the North of France.
- Cypress, rheumatism, juniper, but also other species of the same family: these are found mainly in the south of France.

Of course, it is often difficult to know which pollen you are allergic to: it will depend on the period when you have the symptoms, but also the region where you live, if applicable.
