A member asked:
What if your pregnant and don't know it but your taking metronidazole vaginal cream?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Likely no risk: 5 days of Metronidazole cream will likely not cause any harm. Less of the cream is absorbed into the bloodstream, so the risk is more theoretical than real. Just let your OB know, but i don't think it warrants much if any worry.

You'll be fine: Metronidazole vaginal cream is actually treatment of choice for BV while pregnant. No worries!
