Can pregnant women use nasal drops?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Can pregnant women use nasal drops?

Doctor's answer:

It is recommended that you do not use it, because nasal drops contain many antibiotic ingredients, which can have a certain stimulating effect on the body. At the same time, since the nasal cavity and throat are connected, sometimes the medicine can easily enter the throat and then into the digestive system, being absorbed by the body. Then, when the mother's nutrients are supplied, they are also provided to the fetus. The general calculation method is: if the fetus moves continuously in the abdomen, it counts as one time; if it stops moving and then moves again, it counts as the second time. Count the fetal movements three times a day: at 9-10 a.m., 3-4 p.m., and 9-10 p.m. Generally, if there are more than three movements, if the fetal movements are less than twice per hour, count for another hour continuously.
However, as long as the fetal movements are regular, rhythmic, and show little variation, it proves that the fetus is developing normally.
