9310208 tn?1410859285 I use dishsoap on counters, vinegar water and dshsoap mixture on floors, water alone on mirrors, green or natural toilet bowl cleaner that has low odor, and antibacterial cleaning wipes that I wear gloves with in the bathroom that don't smell too strong. Vinegar on counter and cutting board when sanitizing. Vinegar and baking soda paste mixture in oven and let it sit before scrubbing. I never have used many chemicals to clean (except the bathroom). I felt it was still pretty sanitary.
Avatar n tn If nothing else, the problem we have with Multiple Chemical Sensitivities alone would fall in this area. Ammonia and other cleaners can certainly cause health issues to those who are sensitive or work with these substances on a daily basis. A good idea would be to protect the skin and dawn a mask when using any type of chemical.
Avatar f tn As long as the room is well ventilated and ur not using cleaners with really REALLY strong fumes you should be fine. I'm 40 weeks and 1 day and last week I deep cleaned my kitchen. I just had a window open and a fan running in there.
338963 tn?1253660822 I know that there came a point in my pregnancy at the beginning and at the end that the very SMELL of ammonia or bleach made me vomit. So I just stopped cleaning and made my hubby do it!
398501 tn?1334702273 Maybe you could buy Natural Instincts (it is ammonia-free) and have your SIL put it on for you at her house. That way you get color, though it is NOT permanent, it is inexpensive and it doesn't have the ammonia that is so worrisome.
Avatar f tn Try vinegar. It cleans and deodorizes well. Also cleaning with vodka is a good, but expensive alternative.
Avatar m tn I was wondering if anyone else here thinks or knows they are sensitive to clorox and other cleaners when it comes to their hearts ryhthyms. I know I feel a couple of times I have had some series onsets of some type of arrythmias minutes after breathing the fumes even if it was suttle and not long. How about any other fragrances?
Avatar f tn It is completely safe to paint during pregnancy as long as it is with water based paints and not oil based and most paint are water based. Primers are usually the ones that are oil based. She can ask he DR about it and they will tell her the same thing. I am sure she is fine.
Avatar f tn Wear gloves! You'd be surprised how much of the chemicals will soak in through your hands, especially now that you're pregnant. I didn't once and my hands had a horrible scent for 2 days. Personally, I avoid chlorine. I use vinegar based cleaners most of the time because they aren't as hard on me as other cleaners.
7827642 tn?1396958758 I would wait until you hit your second trimester. Also, when you do it, try to get something without the ammonia and NO bleach. I used the new Olia that is oil based. There's no smell and it works great.
1475202 tn?1536270977 It is the same type of ammonia that you find in cleaners. Ever cleaned out the litter box, it smells like ammonia. This is because the body produces it and its is the job of the liver to filtter this from the blood stream and eject it out of the body.
Avatar m tn I now lived in 3 different appartment and there always appeared this pink scum around sinks. First I thought it was caused by Haematococcus pluvialis because I took an Astaxanthin supplement back then. Then I found out that supposedly a bacteria called Serratia marcescens can cause this pink slime. Now I read that the pink slime can also be caused by a yeast called Rhodotorula mucilaginosa.
Avatar f tn The fumes won't hurt you either. I dye my hair, but I don't use ammonia dyes (they're worse for your hair anyway). If you do use ammonia based dyes the ammonia can make you feel sick because it's such a strong smell. I work in chicken houses, and there is a strong ammonia smell sometimes and my doctor said it's fine as long as the smell doesn't make me sick.
598816 tn?1219542566 I guess I have adverse reactions to ammonia products and pretty much any household cleaner with chemicals in it. Toxic mold can also create problems. My sister had recurring bronchitis and ear infections, as well did her 2 kids, several years ago when she rented a house that had a mold issue in their basement (they got out of it and immeddiately stopped having colds, infections, etc.). Another thing that I have heard that can cause problems is high CO (carbon monoxide) levels.
Avatar n tn I seriously doubt anyone here can offer you any advice regarding this person’s health based on the info you provided. I’ve personally seen people in late stage liver disease continue for many years; this is information his doctor is going to have to provide based on physical examination, lab results, etc.
5036298 tn?1362646927 Not to say that is causing your current issues, but just generally speaking. Ammonia based products especially are very caustic, and I would imagine you are probably working with a few products that contain ammonia. It sounds as though you also may have some GERD (reflux) issues going on (just my opinion). Anxiety can sometimes cause GI issues, and vice versa. I would recommend talking with your doctor about that.
Avatar f tn There is no research found that dying your hair while pregnant causes harm to the fetus. I dyed my hair with ammonia free hair dye and my son is completely fine. My best friend dyed her hair for her wedding photos while pregnant and her daughter is now 6 months and completely fine. It is safe.
Avatar m tn treating precipitating factors, such as sepsis and electrolyte disturbances; initiating therapy based on the ammonia hypothesis; and managing severe hepatic encephalopathy in the intensive care unit (ICU), if possible. This article will review several treatment modalities available for hepatic encephalopathy, with particular emphasis on rifaximin dosed twice/day..... Conclusion Lactulose remains the first-line agent for both acute episodic and persistent hepatic encephalopathy.

Avatar m tn I hope you didn mix it with other cleaners,even vinager,if you did it will give a chlorine gas and is very dangerous,if you just inhaled the clorox itself you should be ok.
Avatar f tn A problem my friend with Hep C and i have encountered is that consumption of animal protein caused an ammonia buildup. I would wake up to the constant smell of ammonia everywhere i went. Since i am mostly vegetarian, and only break this rule with fish a few times a month, i was careful to note that the ammonia smell only occurred after eating fish. My physician tested me and found that i definitely had an ammonia buildup and i should stop eating animal protein.
