Patient's question:
Does excessive consumption of phenolphthalein cause infertility?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to the symptoms you described, it will not affect pregnancy, but it will affect intestinal health. Taking too many phenolphthalein tablets can cause diarrhea, leading to dehydration and electrolyte imbalance. It is recommended that you stop taking the medication before trying to conceive. This medication is primarily used to treat habitual constipation. It is recommended to eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, drink more water, develop a habit of regular bowel movements, and consume light, easily digestible, and nutritious foods. Avoid spicy, irritating seafood, and cold foods. Rest and do not overexert yourself.
