PFT (Spirometry) in early pregnancy

2026-02-27 14:00:52
As I have been having perennial allergic rhinitis for almost 10 years now, I was talking montair-lc and duonase to manage the symptoms regularly. As my gynaec said those medicines are contra indicated, I had been to a pulmonologist. He ordered a PFT to look at lung function. He prescribed foracort and fluticasone inhalers as safe. I have been having a bit of chest pain and throat irritation after the PFT test. Is PFT safe in pregnancy?
