Use of salicylic acid (beta-hydroxy acid) during pregnancy?From: Abigail (anonymous@obgyn.net)Tue, 21 Aug 2001 09:14:44 -0500 (CDT)
Is it safe to use salicylic acid, otherwise known as beta-hydroxy acid, on the skin during pregnancy? It is an ingredient often found in facial lotions and cleansers? Also, what about facial lotions that contain retinol? I know that is a derivative of vitamin A, and too much A during pregnancy is not recommeded. I guess my main question is: can things we put on our skin endanger our pregnancies? I tried a search prior to posting this, but it did not return any matches. Thank you for your time!
