Does using condoms during pregnancy affect the baby?

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Could you please tell me if using condoms during pregnancy affects the baby?

Doctor's answer:

Using condoms for sexual activity after pregnancy is acceptable and will not cause any issues. It is recommended to maintain a balanced diet, consume fresh vegetables and fruits, drink plenty of water, avoid spicy foods, get adequate rest, supplement with multiple vitamins to enhance immunity, and promote early recovery.
Your condition may be caused by qi deficiency and blood failure to coagulate, leading to bleeding. This is often due to prolonged illness, exhaustion, or spleen deficiency, which results in qi deficiency. When qi is deficient, it cannot properly regulate blood flow, causing blood to escape from blood vessels. Alternatively, chronic blood loss may deplete qi, leading to qi deficiency that fails to hold blood.
It is recommended to use a large dose of astragalus root decoction to invigorate qi and stop bleeding.
