What should I do if I feel abdominal pain twice after taking medicine?

Patient's question:

My wife took a test before taking Qi and Blood capsules and found she wasn't pregnant. After taking them for about 10 days, she recently took another test and found she was pregnant. For two nights, while taking a nap, she felt pain in her abdomen twice. Now that she has been pregnant for over 20 days, what should she do? Will it affect the child? How long is it appropriate to go to the hospital for a thorough check-up?

Doctor's answer:

Blood and capsules are the prescription of Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction, with the main function of invigorating blood and resolving stasis. It primarily affects the implantation of the fertilized egg and early pregnancy. Currently, there is no evidence of it causing fetal malformation. It is recommended to wait and see for now, rest as much as possible, and seek medical attention immediately if abdominal pain or vaginal bleeding occurs again. If there are no symptoms of abdominal pain or vaginal bleeding, it is advised to have a B examination around the 50th day of pregnancy. Wishing you happiness.
