Im in my second trimester and my nose is so blocked, cant sleep properly at night. I have an old nasal spray at home but scared to use it without asking. will check with my gynac but wanted to hear from u all first.
Plain saline sprays are generally considered safe, but the medicated decongestant ones you should clear with your doctor first. Dont just pick one off the shelf. A quick call to your gynac sorts it out.
Please dont use any nasal spray without asking your gynac, some are not advised in pregnancy. When I was blocked up badly she told me which saline option was safe. Steam and saline rinses are usually the safer first step.
For a blocked nose I used steam inhalation and a saline spray, which my doctor said was fine. The medicated decongestant sprays I avoided unless she okayed. Always check the type with your gynac na.
