Patient's question:
Is the radiation only present when the phone is in use for calls or receiving calls, or is there also radiation when the phone is normally on?I often keep my phone in my pocket. Does this have any effect on the fetus?
Doctor's answer:
The radiation from mobile phones is very low. Generally, it has no significant impact on the fetus. Additionally, you don't frequently use a computer, so there shouldn't be a problem.Mothers-to-be should use dedicated headphones and microphones to answer calls, minimize call duration, and prefer using programmable phones. It is recommended to undergo regular prenatal check-ups, count fetal movements at fixed times while lying on your left side to improve uterine-placental blood circulation. Get sufficient sleep of 8-9 hours daily, maintain a balanced diet, take appropriate iron and calcium supplements, and avoid sexual activity.
