i have used them in previous pregnancies and miscarried 2 when using them and had 3 m/c when not.
i used them as i get recurrent bacterial vaginosis and sperm seems to set it off
It’s wise to avoid potential contact with any chemicals during pregnancy.
Spermicides are chemicals that immobilise and kill sperm, so they aren’t exactly biologically friendly.
They also cause disruption to the normal balance of bacteria and PH levels within the vagina, and during pregnancy this can more readily result in the introduction of infection.
A pregnant cervix is also a lot more sensitive than normal and can easily be irritated by the chemicals, and an irritated cervix is not what you need when you’re pregnant, as the cervix needs to remain closed and as trauma free as possible to ensure the progress of the pregnancy.
This is not to say they WILL cause a problem, but it’s best to avoid the possibility.
Recurrent ‘Bacterial Vaginosis’ can be very traumatic to live with. Sometimes after taking all the creams, potions and antibiotics the problem still comes back time after time. After suffering with recurrent bacterial vaginosis (BV) for nearly 3 years I eventually found a totally natural cure. The claim was to be clear of bacterial vaginosis in 3 days. Imagine my delight when I found the claims to be totally true. If you have bacterial vaginosis for the first time or have had recurrent bacterial vaginosis for some time this is something you really should consider looking at Bacterial Vaginosis Help – The 3 Day Cure
i dont think so but this may be one for the doctor to answer! good luck : )

No, as i far as i know the spermicide is within the condom not on the outside and is designed to kill off just sperm. Once an egg is fertilised it shouldn’t be effected by a spermicide.

As far as I know, no. But I’d ask a doctor.. they know best!
