If u can get: It over the counter it's unlikely to cause miscarriages or birth defects. The amount required to enter your blood stream and get to the baby would have to be high, likely. It should e fine, i'm not aware of any issues.

It would be good if you would discuss this with your Gynecologist who knows your medical history and can make recommendations. If you are not confident with your Doctor please see another for a second opinion.
