Patient's question:
Doctor, hello: I took emergency contraception on December 24th after my period, and then took Black Chicken White Phoenix Pills and cold medicine on January 7th and 8th. My periods are very regular, always on the 18th of each month. So, if I got pregnant after taking these medications during my fertile period, would it be safe to have the child? I'm very nervous because I plan to get pregnant in August this year and I'm in a hurry. Please, doctor, reply as soon as possible!!!First follow-up question: You said it should be okay, could you explain why in more detail?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on your description, if you are in the ovulation period and have taken cold medicine and stomach medicine, it is generally not recommended to conceive. If you do, as long as you have not taken any medication after ovulation, the potential impact is likely minimal. However, it is still advisable to undergo regular prenatal check-ups. Generally, doctors recommend that women with signs of genetic risks for healthy offspring should pay attention to keeping warm and avoid cold exposure. Additionally, patients should also focus on maintaining a comfortable environment, which is beneficial for rest. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
