Can Procto-glyvenol Affect The Fetus?
Hi, I m trying to conceive and I think this month I might be pregnant. I have hemorroids and I was given Procto-Glyvenol to treat them, twice a day. I ve been using it for a week now. Just now it occured to me it may affect the developing baby. Is Procto-Glyvenol gonna affect my baby s development? My period is due this monday, so if I m fregnant I ll be around 4 weeks.

Hi,
It is not safe to take procto-glyvenol during pregnancy. Since the safety of proctoglyvenol during pregnancy is not being established hence it is not advisable to use during pregnancy. Ask your doctor to prescribe a hemorrhoid cream or rectal suppository that is safe to use during pregnancy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali
