Patient's question:
A month ago, I had an abortion surgery. A month later, now I have confirmed that I am pregnant! In the meantime, I took cold medicine. Can the baby be kept? Can it be healthy? Will it harm the mother?Doctor's answer:
Currently, based on the situation you described, the use of medication during pregnancy interferes with the fetal growth and development. However, the extent of the harm cannot be accurately determined for you. You can undergo a Down syndrome screening between the 16th and 20th weeks of pregnancy to rule out any intellectual issues with the fetus. If there are any abnormalities, a detailed 4D ultrasound examination between the 22nd and 26th weeks of pregnancy can be performed to rule out fetal malformations. If there are no abnormal conditions, there should be no problem.
