Patient's question:
I got pregnant around September 2nd, but without knowing it, I inserted Daktarin vaginally for 3 days on September 14th, which is about two weeks after conception. I don't know if it will affect the baby. Thank you.Doctor's answer:
Before the third week of pregnancy, medication is generally considered to pose no significant problems. If the embryo is affected by drugs during this period, it may lead to implantation failure or early miscarriage. From weeks 4 to 7, it is a critical period for the formation of the fetus's central nervous system, heart, digestive organs, limbs, and other structures. If a teratogenic drug (a drug that can cause congenital abnormalities such as morphological deformities) is taken during this time, the likelihood of it affecting the fetus is significantly higher than at other stages.
