Hello

First thing i would like to advice you is to avoid self medication specially since you are trying to get pregnant!
cifran is not supposed to be used in pregnancy!
Cifran can cause gastritis and hence you were having the pain. I would recommend that you meet your doctor, who will examine you and help you further. Thanks
