Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: Doctor, my last menstrual period was on November 4th. I took a pregnancy test on the 3rd of this month and it came back positive. Over the past two or three days, I've sometimes felt a slight pain in the middle of my lower abdomen. Could this have any negative effects? Also, during pregnancy, can I use an electric heater to stay warm?Doctor's answer:
Hello: Generally during pregnancy, it is essential to pay attention to the details of daily life to avoid affecting the growth and development of the fetus. As winter is approaching and the weather is getting cold, heating should be taken care of to avoid any impact on the fetus. It is recommended to use electric heaters appropriately, but the distance from the pregnant woman should be at least two meters, and direct blowing should be avoided. At the same time, maintain indoor humidity to prevent excessive dryness that may cause a sore throat.
