How to Handle Illness During Pregnancy

Patient's question:

Cold, no treatment has been given, the help I want: Now that I am pregnant, what method should I use to treat it

Doctor's answer:

Generally speaking, filterable viruses can pass through the mother's placenta and directly enter the fetus's body. Therefore, if a mother becomes infected with a filterable virus, the fetus will also be exposed to the virus. Since colds are caused by filterable virus infections, the baby will also catch a cold along with the mother. However, the specific effects of colds on the fetus are not yet fully understood, and the causal relationship between the filterable virus that causes colds and fetal abnormalities has not been definitively confirmed. Therefore, there is no need to overworry. Like rubella, the early stages of pregnancy are a time of rapid cell division and are also a critical period for the formation of fetal organs, so special attention should be paid.
