Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
Can a pregnant woman use Paraben containing products? How much Paraben is bad for fetal growth? What are Paraben free skin care products?
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Paraben is usually the preservative in most of the cosmetics. When used topically, there is no risk of systemic absorption. It does not affect the fetal growth and can be used in pregnancy. We could guide you much precisely if you mentioned the creams which you intend to use.
