Nano silver safe before conception?
I was prescribed nano silver gel by the gynaec and I used it a few days before my ovulation. I recently came to know after my ovulation that nano silver is teratogenic and can cause birth defects. What should I do, is it safe to use nano silver gel while trying to get pregnant? Or should I go to a different doctor and ensure I don't get pregnant this time?
