Topical corticosteroids in pregnancy ‘have no impact on birth weight’

Use of topical corticosteroids does not appear to increase the risk of newborns being small for gestational age (SGA) or having low birth weight, according to a large cohort study.
Researchers examined Danish medical birth registry data covering more than 11 million pregnancies between 1997 and 2016.
