Will Lysol Disinfectant Have Any Adverse Affect On A 8 Week Pregnant Lady?

Hello, I am 8 weeks pregnant, and living with a roommate who refuses to quite her use of Lysol aersol disinfectant/air freshener spray. She uses it mostly in her room which is right next to mine. Is it possible this product could come through the heating vent, and affect my pregnancy? I am guessing she also uses it in the bathroom as well, where I shower, brush my teeth, etc... I am wondering if this could have any kind of negative effect?

hi dear
I m concerned with ur worry
definitely Lysol is disinfectant and can cause some kind of harm but not that much significant, benefits of it outweighs the risks means if we don't use it , germs will grow nd cause more than the ingredients of Lysol

so don't worry and try to avoid the area for 1 to 2 hrs after spray
