Patient's question:
I'm pregnant, but I don't know if I can keep the child. My last menstrual period was on November 14th, and it has already ended for seven days. That is, it started on the 21st (implying a safe period), which could mean delivery. However, on the 27th, I felt uncomfortable and went to the gynecology department of the hospital for a routine treatment. The treatment included: cleaning, inhalation, light therapy, and medication. They also took a vaginal discharge sample and did a vaginal ultrasound. Since the 30th, I haven't had any sexual activity. That is, I got pregnant between the 21st and the 29th. So, can I keep this child?Doctor's answer:
The last menstrual period was on November 14th and lasted until November 27th, which is the 13th day of the missed period. The ovulation day is generally 14 days before the next menstrual period. What is the length of your menstrual cycle? It is generally believed that within the first three weeks of pregnancy, the effect of the medication on the child is either entirely disruptive, leading to a natural miscarriage, or with no significant interference. From a timing perspective, it should not be a major issue. If you really want this child, focus on early pregnancy and closely monitor the situation. If symptoms of threatened miscarriage reappear later, it is recommended not to attempt to prevent it. If there are no symptoms of threatened miscarriage, it is generally not a serious problem, and you can focus on early pregnancy.
