My nose stays blocked all the time and I used to use this spray before pregnancy. Now im 10 weeks and scared to use anything without checking. Planning to ask my gynac, but has anyone used it safely?
Nasal sprays can contain steroids, so please check with your gynac before using fluticasone. It is never safe to self-medicate during pregnancy. Let your doctor prescribe a safe alternative for your cold.
At my hospital, the doctors gave us a strict list of safe medications and warned us against using any over-the-counter sprays. Please call your hospital's helpline or your doctor to confirm if fluticasone is safe for you. It's always best to get direct professional advice.
I completely understand how frustrating a blocked nose can be, especially when you are already struggling to sleep. But please don't use the spray until your gynac confirms it is safe. Our anxiety makes us want quick relief, but doctor's advice is the safest.
My mother suggested simple steam with a drop of eucalyptus oil for nasal block, which is very safe ghar pe remedy. But if you want to use a specific spray like fluticasone, please trust your doctor and ask them first. Don't use medical sprays without gynac's permission.
Please avoid using any nasal spray without asking your doctor first. It is always better to be safe during pregnancy, so just drop a quick text to your gynac.
I totally understand how uncomfortable you must be feeling right now with a blocked nose. But for the sake of your precious baby, please call your doctor before using any nasal sprays. Stay strong, dear, this phase will pass soon.
After going through IVF, I became so protective and never used any medicine without checking. Even for simple nasal sprays, please consult your doctor first to ensure it's completely safe for your little one. Wishing you a very safe journey.
