Im having a small painful issue down there and the chemist suggested lignocaine gel. But im 4 months pregnant so i didnt buy it yet. Wanted to check with others before applying anything.
These local gels are used in many situations but the safe call really depends on why and how much. Better to let your doctor or dentist decide for your case. Dont apply it on your own assumption.
Any gel or numbing thing, please run it by your gynac first. Even if its commonly used, your doctor knows your stage and history. I never used anything in pregnancy without that one confirmation.
I would not use any medicated gel without asking. A quick call clears these doubts and saves you from worrying later. Doctor advice is genuinely the best here.
