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. Is it normal to have abdominal pain in the early stages of pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, this situation is generally unlikely to cause pain. It is recommended to wait and see for now and avoid taking medication blindly, which may delay the condition. If necessary, you can consider a detailed examination.Folic acid is especially important for pregnant women. If a pregnant woman lacks folic acid during the first three months of pregnancy, it can lead to neural tube defects in the fetus, increasing the risk of anencephaly and encephalocele. Additionally, if pregnant women regularly supplement with folic acid, it can prevent low birth weight, premature birth, and congenital deformities such as cleft lip (hare lip) in newborns.
