What is the impact of using an electric heating pad before and during pregnancy on the fetus?

Patient's question:

Similarly, does the magnetic field of an electric blanket affect the development of a partner's sperm?

Doctor's answer:

This current, though small, may pose potential risks to the fetus in the developmental stage due to the electric blanket being closely positioned under the pregnant woman. Pregnant women who use electric blankets during the first three months of pregnancy have a relatively high rate of natural miscarriage. The correct usage is to preheat for half an hour before use, turn off the switch before going to bed, and unplug the power cord. Generally, doctors recommend that women with signs of eugenetic risks should rest in bed and avoid sexual activity. Additionally, patients should also pay attention to a comfortable environment, which is beneficial for rest. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
