I was on some steroid medicine for a skin issue before i found out i was pregnant, now im 6 weeks and really worried it may have harmed the baby. planning to ask my gynac but anyone been through this?
Ayyo, steroids are very strong medications, so please do not take any without asking your doctor first. My mother always said to be very careful with medicines during pregnancy. Please consult your gynac to see if it is safe for you.
When I was pregnant, I was prescribed safe steroids for a brief medical issue, and my baby is now a healthy, active toddler. But this is completely a doctor's call, so please don't take anything without their advice.
Steroids are definitely not something you can just pop like candy, especially now when you're a human incubator, haha! Please call your doctor's clinic and ask them if your current prescription is safe to continue.
After going through a miscarriage, I became extremely cautious about every single pill. Steroids can sometimes have severe effects unless they are strictly prescribed by a specialist. Please check with your doctor before taking even one dose.
Yes, certain steroids can impact the baby, while some are actually prescribed by doctors for lung development. It totally depends on the type and dosage. Please make sure you check with your obstetrician before taking anything.
Listen, never take any steroids or heavy medicines on your own during pregnancy, it is not safe. Some steroids are okay if prescribed by your gynac for specific reasons, but self-medicating is a big NO. Call your doctor immediately.
Oh my god, please don't take any steroids without asking your doctor, it can be really risky! I used to panic even before taking a normal paracetamol. Talk to your gynac right away to be absolutely safe.
