Patient's question:
On October 6th, I had my period, which lasted for about 5 days. My period is usually delayed by 2-3 days each time. In October, I had multiple sexual encounters with my boyfriend without any form of contraception. Until today, my period has still not arrived. These days, I've been experiencing lower abdominal discomfort, excessive vaginal discharge, and my underwear has been wet all day. I keep feeling like my period is about to start, but it's still not coming. At the beginning of this month, my breasts started to feel tender, and now it's clearly noticeable that they have enlarged. I've been experiencing frequent urination, feeling like I need to urinate often, but after doing so, it feels like there's still more. Lately, I've been feeling like I can't wake up properly, and my whole body is aching. I don't know if I'm "pregnant." I'm also afraid to go to the hospital. My boyfriend says if I am pregnant, we will get married.Doctor's answer:
Hello: It is highly likely that you are pregnant! When using a computer, electromagnetic radiation can exist around it, including X-rays, ultraviolet light, visible light, infrared light, and extremely high-frequency, high-frequency, medium-frequency, and extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields, as well as electrostatic fields. However, the intensity of their emissions is very weak and far below the current health standards set by China and international standards. A decade of tracking surveys have shown that the electromagnetic radiation emitted by computers is very small and is safe for the human body, including pregnant women, as well as for sperm, eggs, zygotes, embryos, and fetuses. In real life, the occurrence of miscarriages or the birth of malformed fetuses among computer operators is a rare phenomenon and should not be used to "condemn" computers. To this day, foreign experts have not provided scientific evidence that computers can affect fetuses. Therefore, he advises expectant fathers and mothers that there is no need to be overly frightened by computers and that normal computer use before and during pregnancy will not affect your little baby.(1) The radiation emitted by computers is far below the international standards, posing no threat to adults.
(2) During the first three months of pregnancy, when the fetus is in a sensitive period of cell division and organ differentiation, radiation protection is necessary:
1. Keep at least one meter away from the computer.
2. Wear protective clothing.
3. Take a shower and change clothes after finishing work.
