Patient's question:
I was not feeling well before, and I have been taking traditional Chinese medicine. Now I've found out I'm pregnant, and it's been about a month. During this time, I've continued to take the traditional Chinese medicine. Will taking traditional Chinese medicine interfere with the pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, it is necessary to be aware of the ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine, what illness is being treated with the medicine, and generally there is no major issue. It is recommended to pay attention to rest and warmth prevention during pregnancy, maintain cleanliness and dryness of the external genitalia, undergo regular prenatal examinations, enhance nutrition, and in addition, pay attention to your own dietary health. You can go for walks more often during the day to ensure the child stays healthy, and always monitor your own health status.
