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 advise on how to ensure a healthier and cuter baby during pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Hello, generally, an early pregnancy test can be done around day 35 of a missed period, or a blood HCG test can be taken 10 days after intercourse to confirm pregnancy. After conception, it is important to rest and maintain proper nutrition, avoiding spicy and irritating foods. Regular prenatal check-ups, such as ultrasound for fetal anomaly screening and Down syndrome screening, should be performed.In your case, it may be due to qi and blood deficiency. Supplementation should focus on boosting qi, generating blood, tonifying qi and blood, and balancing qi and blood. It is recommended to use Shengquan Dabu Ointment for treatment. Additionally, consuming foods like pork liver and spinach, which are beneficial for replenishing qi and blood, can be helpful.
