I just got pregnant and have a headache. What's going on?

Patient's question:

I am 27 years old. In the past few days, I have had brown discharge from my lower body and don't know what it could be. I suspect I might be pregnant. Could you please explain: What could be the reason for headaches during early pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

In the early stages of pregnancy, it is important not to use medications indiscriminately, as this is one of the main reasons for fetal developmental abnormalities. However, it does not mean that medications should be absolutely avoided during pregnancy. A small number of people can recover from a cold without medication, but it may lead to the worsening of the condition, potentially resulting in acute bronchitis or other diseases, at which point medical treatment may be necessary.
For your situation, it is still recommended to visit a hospital for a check-up. In such cases, some medications may be prescribed, and this will not affect the fetal growth and development.
