Patient's question:
Hello! I recently found out that I'm pregnant, about a month along. However, during this period, I've had some itching in my wrist and have been using a topical cream called "Pityriasis Alba" for a while. I'm not sure if it has had any effect on the fetus in my stomach! Please ask if this fetus can still be kept. Please reply! UrgentDoctor's answer:
External medications are considered to have minimal impact on the fetus. It is recommended to relax and wait, observing regularly and undergoing prenatal check-ups. In the early stages of pregnancy, it is advisable to maintain a calm mood, eat light and easily digestible foods, wear loose clothing, and ensure sufficient sleep. Folic acid tablets should be taken orally within the first three months of pregnancy. In your case, there is no need to worry too much, as Daipiting ointment is an external medication that will not have a significant impact on the fetus. However, please be sure to avoid using any medications randomly during pregnancy.
