Patient's question:
At 31 days pregnant, my platelet count is 76. The doctor prescribed Shengxuening tablets. Since the fetus is in a critical period of development right now, I'm worried that taking this medication might affect the baby's development?Doctor's answer:
The medication you mentioned, Shengxuening, is effective for boosting qi and nourishing the body, making it suitable for individuals with iron-deficiency anemia and deficiency of both qi and blood.Once you become pregnant, it is best to adjust your diet appropriately. If you have low platelet counts, it should not be a major issue. You can eat plenty of vegetables, drink jujube soup, and consume yam porridge or rice porridge, which are good for your stomach.
Please pay attention to any fever, nausea, or vomiting. Considering you are currently pregnant, this should be safe for the baby, so you can rest assured.
