How long after an endoscopy can you get pregnant?

Patient's question:

A few weeks ago, I had some stomach discomfort, so I went to the hospital for an endoscopy. However, my husband and I have been trying to conceive, so I wanted to ask how long after the endoscopy we can get pregnant and if it will affect the child. What kind of help do you need: How long after the endoscopy can we get pregnant?

Doctor's answer:

Women undergoing an endoscopy for the stomach does not interfere with conception, so as long as the body is in good condition and there are no discomforts, they can prepare for pregnancy. Starting from the preparation phase, they should take small doses of folic acid tablets orally until three months of pregnancy to prevent neural tube defects in the fetus. At the same time, it is important to ensure a relaxed mood, maintain good deep sleep, engage in appropriate exercise, avoid contact with chemicals, and prevent contact with pets.
