Whoever told you that steroid nasal sprays cannot be used for the long term? A cohort study by the Swedish Government on 40000 women studied the use of both inhaled and nasal spray steroid use through pregnancy and lactation over 20 years subsequently on both the mothers and their children to conclusively prove that these medicines are the only safe medicines to be administered for allergy and asthma on pregnant or lactating mothers on long term usage!
