How long after a female has a chest X-ray can she become pregnant?

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried it might affect fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness.
How long should a woman wait after having a chest X-ray before she can get pregnant?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, generally, an early pregnancy test can be done around day 35 of a missed period, or a blood HCG test can be performed 10 days after intercourse to confirm pregnancy. After becoming pregnant, it is important to rest and maintain proper nutrition, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. Regular prenatal check-ups, such as ultrasound for fetal anomaly screening and Down syndrome screening, should be conducted. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects a woman's health but can also lead to further gynecological issues. Therefore, it is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a check-up, identify the cause, and receive targeted treatment. Additionally, pay close attention to personal hygiene and keep the vaginal area clean.
