Accepted Answer

Perhaps Not: T
The manufacturer advises against using this product during pregnancy.

Avoid use if pregnant or breast feeding unless prescribed by your doctor.

It is generally recommended to use water based lubricants during pregnancy that do not contain, glycerin, parabens, or fragrances.  There are no studies on these products, but these characteristics may be safe.

I know of: no reason to avoid these preparations since the effect they have is "local"...My own RULE however is that you obtain clearance from your OBSTETRICIAN before using!
Hope this is helpful!

Question 5

is it safe to use ky his and hers lubricant during pregnancy? the box says avoid use if pregnant or breastfeeding unless prescribed by doctor. i have preeclampsia and just want to be safe.

Accepted Answer

Avoid use: I would advise to avoid any of that use, so many medications/ supplements/ products might have effects that have not been substantiated by research yet, so it is safer to avoid use of these products

Question 6

is sex safe in pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Normally yes: As long as there are no risk factors for preterm birth, placental problems, or bleeding, sex is safe in pregnancy.

Question 7

is lithium safe in pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

No.: Lithium is not safe during pregnancy. For one thing, it can cause cardiac/ heart defects in the baby ( epstiens anomoly). Lithium has a narrow margin of safety ; therfore, the fluid shifts that occur during pregancy may effect lithium levels, putting both the mother and baby at risk. If a woman is on prescribed medications and becomes pregnant, she should notify her doctor immediately.

Question 8

are nosedrops safe in pregnancy ?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Nose drops are ok  it is localized medication not affecting pregnancy.

Question 9

is nauzene safe during pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Yes: It's basically just sugar and aspartame (nutrasweet).  As long as you don't have phenyketonuria, you can take it.  I am not a fan of aspartame anytime, and i think it's especially important to avoid as many artificial chemicals during pregnancy as possible, so i wouldn't recommend nauzene. There are other nausea treatments that i'd use first (try ginger tea).

Question 10

is brinjal during pregnancy safe?

Accepted Answer

Yes: By Brinjal, do you mean Eggplant? Only in the Indian cultures Brinjal is suggested to be avoided during pregnancy (Ayurveda) A normal eggplant has lots of vitamin A, dietary fiber iron. These are essential nutrients that are needed during pregnancy. It is believed that eggplants contain large amounts of phytohormones that may cause contractions so  use your judgement. Moderation is key.
