Patient's question:
A pregnant woman has a cold; can she take cold tea? If she's less than a month pregnant and drinks winter melon soup, will it cause a miscarriage? I heard that pregnant women can also take Isatis root; how often should they take it? My classmate took it once or twice a day, and she miscarried after being pregnant for more than two months. Was it Isatis root that caused it?Doctor's answer:
Honeysuckle is harmless, but don't take it if you have a cold, as it can make your cold worse! Also, if a pregnant woman gets a cold, just drink more water and let yourself sweat more and urinate more! Also, you can drink more ginger tea to dispel cold, which helps you recover from a cold faster. Pregnant women with common colds should pay attention to rest, drink more water, and avoid crowded places. If you have symptoms such as fever, coughing up phlegm, and body aches, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly.
