Did you find out you were pregnant while getting an intravenous infusion? Is it harmful to the child?

Patient's question:

I got my period on November 25th. My period stopped on the 1st. I had a fever on the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th and received acyclovir and metronidazole intravenously. On the 28th, I used a pregnancy test but it was negative. On the 31st, I went to the hospital and a urine test confirmed I was pregnant. Will this affect my baby?

Doctor's answer:

Based on the information you provided, it is estimated that your menstrual period on November 25th was on day 345 of medication. Currently, if you are pregnant, it should not pose significant problems for the baby. If you are still concerned, it is recommended to undergo thorough prenatal examinations after confirming pregnancy, take folic acid promptly in the early stages of pregnancy, maintain a positive mood, diversify your diet during pregnancy, and maintain a balanced diet. Try to avoid extremely cold, spicy, and irritating foods as much as possible. The above advice is for the question "Does IV drip affect the baby?" and is hoped to be helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
