Many women of childbearing age, because some minor illness took medicine, or the unit organized physical examination, to take X-rays, after the date of menstruation should come to find their [big aunt] delayed. Go to the hospital for examination, was told that the unexpected pregnancy. This is really a pleasant and frightening news! Why are they afraid? It is because there will be a big problem bothering them: after taking medicine or taking X-rays in the early stage of pregnancy, can the baby still have it?
X-rays or medicine taken in the first trimester of pregnancy will either lead to miscarriage or have no effect at all.
Go to the hospital and ask the doctor. If he meets an irresponsible doctor, he may suggest aborting the baby without even thinking about it. If you meet a doctor who is responsible, He usually wants to check the drug instructions, However, Chinese drug instructions usually only indicate [forbidden] or [cautious]. These warnings do not mean that pregnant mothers will definitely deform their fetuses after taking these drugs, but sometimes doctors may directly advise pregnant mothers who have taken such warning drugs to abort their babies in order to protect themselves. Is this really right?
In fact, a large number of clinical evidences abroad show that in the first trimester of pregnancy (note: here, it refers specifically to the 4 weeks before pregnancy, that is, within 28 days from the first day of the last menstruation), medication or X-ray irradiation have only two effects on the baby in the belly: the first result is that the baby has received all adverse effects and spontaneous abortion; The second result is that the baby is not adversely affected and naturally grows normally.
This is currently the internationally recognized theory of “all or none” in the first trimester of pregnancy. In other words, medication or X-ray before the 4th week of pregnancy will not lead to the feared result of giving birth to deformed babies.
Because in the early pregnancy stage (i.e. Before the 4th week of pregnancy), Sperm and egg have just joined together, Is busy camping in the womb. At this time, The fertilized egg undergoes simple cell division, An increase in the same number of cells is achieved, But they haven’t differentiated into different cells yet, No tissue or organ differentiation, Since there is no differentiation of organs, it is not to mention the formation of deformities on organs, so it will not give birth to the deformed babies that people are worried about. In addition, embryos have a self-correcting function in the process of cell division. If the cell division is smooth, the fetus will grow healthily. If the cell division is not smooth, the baby will be eliminated naturally.
Many people, including some medical personnel, Do not necessarily understand this truth, As soon as I heard that I took medicine or took X-rays in the early stage of pregnancy, It is suggested to abort the embryo, which has resulted in many human tragedies. Many pregnant mothers, in order to be on the safe side, follow the doctor’s advice to abort the fetus. In fact, what is aborted is a healthy fetus. Some people can recover after aborting the fetus and can conceive the baby again, but some people are very unlucky and are likely to be unable to conceive any more.
It should be emphasized that, The situation here is that before the 4th week of pregnancy, Taking medicine or taking X-rays during an unwanted pregnancy, If the embryo had not been aborted, You can consider keeping the baby according to the [all or none] theory. However, for couples planning to conceive and preparing for pregnancy, In order to avoid spontaneous abortion caused by taking medicine or taking X-rays, you should do a pregnancy test before taking medicine or taking X-rays each time to confirm that you are not pregnant and then take X-rays. Also, to be on the safe side, pregnancy should be avoided within 3 months after taking X-rays, including both men and women.
Emergency contraceptives will not cause fetal malformation.
Everyone will encounter disappointments of one kind or another in their life. Take the birth of children as an example. Some people want babies and look forward to getting pregnant all day long. Sometimes they even have to take medicine to treat infertility. For a long time, the babies will not come. And some people don’t want a baby, it happened that taking the emergency contraceptive pill can’t stop the baby from coming to you. Clinically, there are often women who take the emergency contraceptive pill after the event, and the result is still pregnant. Can the baby want it?
Before answering this question, First of all, understand that what is an emergency contraceptive pill. The main ingredient of the emergency contraceptive pill is progesterone levonorgestrel ( Such as the well-known Yuting). This kind of medicine mainly plays a contraceptive role by inhibiting ovarian ovulation, preventing sperm from combining with eggs, and preventing fertilized eggs from implanting in the uterus. Its usage is to take one tablet (0.75 mg) as soon as possible within 72 hours after the house, and take the second tablet 12 hours later. Or take two tablets (1.5 mg) together. At present, there are already 1.5 mg emergency contraceptives on the market. For example, Jin Yuting, take them once. If vomiting occurs within two hours after taking them, you should take them immediately.
People who are pregnant after taking Yuting often suspect that they may have taken fake drugs. How can they be pregnant after taking drugs?
In fact, the contraceptive success rate of such drugs is not 100%, But at about 80%, So after women take these drugs, There is still a 20% chance of pregnancy. If the drugs taken fail to successfully inhibit ovarian ovulation, prevent the combination of sperm and egg, and prevent the implantation of fertilized eggs in the uterus, then according to the above-mentioned theory of early pregnancy [all or none], the baby conceived in this case can be completely retained if there is no abortion.
This theory sends us a message: If it weren’t for explicitly taking drugs banned during pregnancy, Don’t make a decision to terminate the pregnancy easily, Let nature take its course, Let’s wait and see. Because even if we worry about what, It can also be eliminated by medical abnormality detection methods later. The current obstetric detection technology is quite mature. Can monitor fetal development through B-ultrasound, amniocentesis and various detection methods. In case what problems occur in fetal development, it is still too late to terminate pregnancy. Do not easily sentence a life to death.
