how to fix the SSL error in python when I try to install a library?

Question

I'm facing this error for a while! I'm using python 3.7.3 and pip version 19.0.3.

When I try to install any python library this error appears:

Retrying (Retry(total=1, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None, status=None)) after connection broken by 'SSLError(SS
LCertVerificationError(1, '[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certif
icate (_ssl.c:1056)'))': /simple/fpdf/

I already try add this command:

--trusted-host pypi.python.org --trusted-host files.pythonhosted.org --trusted-host pypi.org

but it isn't working! How can I solve this error? Here is the error image error

You need to upgrade the pip and then it will install new certificate :

python -m pip install --upgrade pip
