Patient's question:
I am 27 years old, female. Recently, I have been taking traditional Chinese medicine to treat pelvic inflammatory disease, but I found that I actually got pregnant. Please ask if the child can be kept while being pregnant with pelvic inflammatory disease.Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, the side effects of traditional Chinese medicine are relatively small and should not significantly interfere with fetal growth and development. However, it is still recommended that you visit the hospital for some relevant and thorough examinations to determine whether the child can still be carried to term. It is now necessary to pay attention to the fact that this medication should no longer be taken, while also taking care to rest. In case of any abnormalities, seek medical attention promptly. Patients should cultivate the habit of regular daily routines, adhere to treatment, maintain a light diet, and engage in aerobic exercise to boost their immunity and reduce the risk of illness.
