Patient's question:
I am currently two and a half months pregnant. I use my phone every day. Although I use headphones when answering calls, the headphone cord is only so long, and the phone is still relatively close to me. Could this affect the fetus?Doctor's answer:
??????Embryonic and fetal tissues are particularly susceptible to radiation damage. If exposed to electromagnetic radiation during the embryonic development stage, it may lead to miscarriage; if exposed during the organ formation stage, developing organs may become malformed; and if exposed during the development of the central nervous system of the fetus, it may result in intellectual disabilities in the infant. The first three months of pregnancy, which is the early stage, carry significantly greater risks from radiation exposure compared to the middle and late stages of pregnancy. It is recommended that you stay away from your beloved smartphone during the first three months of pregnancy to ensure the healthy development of your baby.
