Patient's question:
In the hospital, a thorough examination revealed a small cyst in the left ovary. The doctor said it's okay to leave it for now and to come back for a detailed check-up in three or four months. Also, sometimes I have some abdominal pain, is this caused by the cyst? Before getting pregnant, I had symptoms of anemia, sometimes feeling dizzy, and lacking energy all over. The anemia was present before pregnancy, while the cyst was discovered only after getting pregnant.Doctor's answer:
In your case, you should be taking folic acid. Generally, 0.4mg of folic acid is sufficient. Based on your description, your anemia can be treated during pregnancy. It is recommended to eat more jujubes, chicken, fish, meat, eggs, dairy products, and shrimp. Also, drink brown sugar water regularly. To put it simply, as long as the food is high in nutritional value, you can consume it. If necessary, you can take Compound Ejiao Jiang, which can correct your anemia. Taking 0.4mg of folic acid is enough, and there's no need to be overly meticulous.
