Muscle rub safe for pregnancy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
For definite check -: With your ob, but i don't think so. Any topical med when applied, does get absorbed into the body but in a very very small amounts. May be applying it not more than twice ; in small amount would be helpful. But check with your OB for the specific cream you intend to use. Good luck.
