    Topical salicylic acid use in early prengnacy
    I am exactly 7 weeks pregnant. I have been using a topical astringent on my face that includes 2% salicylic acid up unitl yesterday. I applied it to my face using a cotton swab every morning and every night followed by a facial moisturizer. Yesterday I read online that using salicylic acid in pregnancy can cause birth defects but some places says it is fine. Could it already have done damage and caused birth defects? Thanks for taking the time to answer.
