Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Can pregnant women use topical medications?Doctor's answer:
This depends on the specific medication and its ingredients. For example, medications containing musk should not be used, and Betadine (a brand name) is also not recommended. Therefore, whether it's for internal or external use, it's best to proceed under the guidance of a doctor.The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects the patient's physical health but can also lead to further complications. Therefore, it's advisable to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a routine check-up. Once the cause is identified, symptomatic treatment should be administered. Additionally, it's important to pay attention to personal hygiene and maintain cleanliness in the vaginal area.
