Patient's question:
Doctor,Today is the last day of my period, and I got my hair colored today. I'm planning to have a baby this month. Could coloring my hair now affect my chances of getting pregnant this month? Will it be harmful to the fetus? I want to have a healthy baby.
Doctor's answer:
Hello: Currently, hair dyeing will not affect getting pregnant this month, and it is harmless to the fetus. In this case, it is necessary to strictly perform prenatal examinations. The Down syndrome screening should be done between weeks 14-19 of pregnancy, and the 4D color Doppler ultrasound for fetal anomaly screening should be performed between weeks 22-26. If necessary, amniocentesis and umbilical cord blood analysis should be conducted between weeks 16-20 to clearly determine the baby's development inside the uterus. It is recommended to keep the baby and undergo regular prenatal check-ups. If any abnormalities are found in the baby, pregnancy should be terminated promptly.
