How Can Intestinal Worm Be Treated?
i had a worm crawl out of my bum and i saw it wriggling. it was a tiny white worm. i went to the dr and did a stool sample but it came back negative. why would this be? could i still have pinworm? I am 11 weeks pregnant so its not as easy as just taking medication to treat it if i think i have it.

Hi, I think you can take albendazole tablet after 12 weeks of pregnancy for deworming. You can discuss regarding this with your doctor. There is no harm in that after 1st trimester. It can be a pin worm infection.
