Patient's question:
My mother is undergoing the third phase of chemotherapy for breast cancer, and there are three more phases to follow. I am two months pregnant. I heard that chemotherapy patients may emit some kind of radiation, but I'm not sure if that's true. Could you please tell me if pregnant women can be close to patients who have undergone pelvic cancer chemotherapy?Doctor's answer:
Pelvic cancer patients, after undergoing chemotherapy in the hospital and returning home for recovery, are not contagious and can live with pregnant women. Due to the many side effects of chemotherapy, it is recommended that patients pay close attention to rest, maintain a balanced diet, and avoid excessive psychological stress. Maintaining a positive mindset is greatly beneficial for cancer treatment.
