Patient's question:
Because my friend said that metronidazole tablets soaked in hot water and the steam directed at the vagina may have a certain effect on vaginitis, so I have been doing this for these days. However, these days are the ovulation period, so there has been sexual intercourse. Will this have an impact? If I get pregnant, will it affect the baby?Doctor's answer:
Metronidazole is primarily used for the treatment of trichomoniasis vaginitis, and it can easily cause fetal malformations. Generally, a fetus at two weeks of pregnancy shows two extreme reactions to the drug: one without any effect, and the other prone to miscarriage.For topical medication, such as fumigation and rinsing, it is difficult to make a definitive determination in this case.
The above is my advice on this issue. I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
