Patient's question:
The country has relaxed the two-child policy, and I'm also 40 years old. My family all advises me to have a second child, as more family members would make the house livelier. However, at my age, I don't know if my body can carry a pregnancy normally! Following the advice of my doctor friend, I underwent a detailed examination! How should the values of the pregnancy test be normal?Doctor's answer:
Generally, during the period of delayed menstruation, if the hCG level is greater than 20, it is still possible to be pregnant. It is recommended to pay attention to the scheduling of sexual activity, or to focus on enhancing nutrition and monitoring secretions. If the test shows positive, it is still advised to eat more vegetables and fruits, and to pay attention to taking folic acid. In the early stages, it is important to actively increase physical activity while also being mindful of implementing measures to support fetal health. The above can serve as a reference.
