Patient's question:
What should I do about an unexpected pregnancy? The harm is relatively small. Is it effective to eat carrots after 20 hours?Doctor's answer:
Carrots are rich in beta-carotene, various vitamins, and other nutrients beneficial to the human body. If women consume excessive amounts of carrots, the large intake of beta-carotene may cause menstrual disorders and inhibit the normal ovulation function of the ovaries. Carrots can aid in contraception. Excessive beta-carotene can affect the synthesis of progesterone in the ovaries, leading to reduced secretion, and in some cases, it may even cause amenorrhea, anovulation, or menstrual irregularities. Therefore, if you are planning to get pregnant, it is best to avoid eating carrots for now and resume after the pregnancy is confirmed.
