Flagyl If Pregnant

Hi! Last dec i had a bacterial vaginosis, my ob gyne checked my records and found out that the medications i took is not for BV. So she decided to let me take falgyl now in my fourth month of pregnancy (my second trimister). Now that i am taking it i often feel a lower left abdominal pain. Is it because of the medicine i took? or it is just a round ligament pain? Thank you

I took 12 flagyl tablets and I didn't know that I was pregnant but I was suspecting it because my breasts were itching. I took the first test and it was negative and I took the second one and it was positive. The reason why I took flagyl is because my uterus was very sore, so I was wondering if it would hurt my unborn child? ## Hello, Sliroro! How are you? Congratulations on the pregnancy! The U.S. FDA lists this antibiotic as being safe for use in pregnant women. Its typical side effects are listed as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, diarrhea and stomach pain. Is there anything else I can help with?

I was diagnosed of having BV and my OB prescribed Flagyl to take for 7 days. I had my period last July 13-18 and started the medicine at 07/21/17 until 07/28/17. I supposed to have my period again by 08/12/17 but until now my period is not showing up. I got a heavy discharge for few days and now I am suffering for lower abdominal cramps. Is this a side effect of Flagyl or am I pregnant? please advise. ## Most antibiotics can cause your cycle to be longer than normal, according to FDA reports, but the only way to be certain is by having yourself checked for pregnancy. Have you experienced any other symptoms, such as nausea, breast tenderness, and weight changes? ## yes, I gained 2 kilos already. last time i check was three weeks ago. i am not experiencing nausea but constipation, my brea...

Hi, I had a yeast and bacterial infection and was told by my doctor to take flagyl comp for 10 days. I don't know if it will affect my period because it has never been missed before. My period came two days after it was delayed, but with much pain and it didn't flow well either. I don't know if I might be pregnant? ## Antibiotics can cause you to experience a longer cycle, in other words a delay to the start of your period, according to NIH reports. Other side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea. Are you on any other medications? Did you try a pregnancy test? ## My menstrual cycle is on the 2nd of May but I am having pains without any flow. Can Flagyl help my period flow regularly?

If it's only been a week, why didn't you still get Plan B, when you had the chance? While it is most effective if taken during the first 72 hours (3 days), you can take it up to 5 days after ...

I took the pills necause my stomach was upset. ## Hello, Gosh! How are you? Sorry about the way you're feeling.

I've never taken methadone or any other drug except marijuana in my life. I'm 17 weeks pregnant and my doctor had me on Flagyl 500mg one tab twice daily for two week. And today they said I tested positive for Methadone. And threatened to call DHS on me. I've been completely open and honest with my doctors, 100% how I used to smoke pot before this pregnancy and moving to an illegal state. I even told him when my sister's boyfriend thought it was hilarious to give me a spliff (a cigarette with marijuana in it) after knowing I quit. But today he informed me I had a preliminary positive. And he'd be sending it out for further testing. Idk what exactly to expect. I'm 17 weeks pregnant, had one positive test for THC. And now this. And he claims Flagyl can NOT cause fal...
