Patient's question:
What should I do if I get pregnant unexpectedly? Which factors during early pregnancy can lead to a miscarriage?Doctor's answer:
There are many causes of early pregnancy miscarriage, but specific causes related to the fetus and placenta suggest avoiding heavy physical labor, especially holding your breath, lifting heavy objects, straining during bowel movements, or activities that increase intra-abdominal pressure, which can lead to miscarriage. Avoid excessive warmth and over-nourishment. During the early stages of pregnancy, avoid exposure to X-rays, ultrasound, radioactive isotopes, and absolutely avoid using such equipment for abdominal examinations to prevent fetal malformations and miscarriage. Pregnant women should avoid visiting areas with infectious diseases such as influenza, typhoid, pneumonia, and should also avoid crowded public places to reduce the risk of infection. Do not smoke actively or passively; avoid contact with pets; and avoid inhaling coal gas.
