Can pregnant women use topical creams that are labeled as "use with caution"?

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried it might affect fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Can pregnant women use ointments that require caution?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, ointments containing hormones should not be used. It is recommended to choose the appropriate medication treatment method based on your symptoms and follow the doctor's advice.
Hello, during pregnancy, it is best not to take supplements indiscriminately to avoid adverse reactions. For women who become pregnant, it is recommended to take folic acid supplements daily during the first three months of pregnancy to prevent most neural tube defects in the fetus. Sexual activity should be avoided during the first three months of pregnancy to prevent miscarriage. After pregnancy, pay attention to a balanced diet and consume more nutritious vegetables and fruits.
