How to deal with high serum protein in pregnant women

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 also feel extremely cold and afraid of the cold. What should I do if a pregnant woman has high serum protein levels?

Doctor's answer:

Hello. Elevated serum copper generally has a slight impact on the development of the baby's brain and cornea, but it doesn't necessarily mean it will cause illness (at 7 months of pregnancy, the child's organs have already developed and are just waiting to mature, so it's usually not a major issue); regarding the serum copper levels, you can follow up with monitoring tests. As long as there is no contraception during sexual intercourse, pregnancy is possible, as some semen may enter the vagina. Your situation still has the possibility of pregnancy; you can use a pregnancy test strip about 15 days after sexual intercourse.
