How early in pregnancy is appropriate for women to wear radiation protection clothing?

　　As the frequency of exposure to household appliances, office computers, and copy machines increases, radiation protection for pregnant women has become a key issue for health care during pregnancy.

　　Some radiation-proof flowers and plants and radiation-proof clothes have become essential supplies for almost every office pregnant mother. Although most people don't know whether pregnant women wearing radiation-proof clothing are effective, more than 90% of pregnant mothers feel that they feel more at ease after wearing them.

　　However, when is the best time to wear radiation protection clothing? Do I need to wear it right after I get pregnant, or do I start wearing it after a few months of pregnancy? According to experts, fetus While staying in the mother's womb, there is mother's Uterus and skin Therefore, generally speaking, after the fetus develops, as long as the pregnant woman is not exposed to radiation for a long time or is exposed to high-intensity radiation for a short period of time, the impact of radiation on the fetus will not be too great.

　　However, when the fetus is only two to three weeks old, it is only an embryo with a few cells. The damage or death of any cell may cause the death or malformation of the fetus. So it is really important to know when to wear radiation protection clothing. During the first two months of pregnancy, the fetus is extremely vulnerable to the effects of radiation. Even if no abnormality is found when the fetus is born, he will suffer from cancer more likely than others. Therefore, you must wear radiation protection clothing at this time.

　　Let's take a look at what experts say about the impact of electromagnetic wave radiation on the fetus during pregnancy.

　　6 weeks ago

　　The highest sensitivity, even small doses of radiation may cause malformations in fetal functional development

　　0~3 months

　　The fetus is still in the embryonic stage, and the fetal membranes and placenta are being formed. Electromagnetic radiation will damage the DNA of embryonic cells, cause abnormalities in the fertilized egg, and cause mutations in genetic genes and chromosomes, which may cause miscarriage or fetal malformations in pregnant women.

　　4~5 months

　　The fetus is in the period of brain formation, which is also the early stage of fetal development. Electromagnetic radiation can directly affect the quantity and quality of fetal thyroxine production. At the same time, the divalent iron in the blood is easily magnetized, reducing blood flow and causing fetal nutritional deficiencies and cerebral hypoxia. This affects the speed of zinc and calcium absorption, which can easily lead to fetal mental retardation, brain hypoxia, low energy and dementia.

　　6~10 months

　　When the fetus is in the growth stage, the magnetized amount of divalent iron in the blood of pregnant women and fetuses increases, and the cardiac blood volume decreases, which affects blood circulation and microcirculation, causing overall malnutrition and hypoxia in the fetus. At the same time, it is easy to lose the vitality of variable-price trace elements, thus destroying the activity of fetal biological enzymes. The fetus's absorption of trace elements is blocked, which directly affects the fetal immune function and causes postnatal complications. baby Frail and sickly.

　　How long should pregnant women wear radiation protection clothing during pregnancy? From this point of view, radiation-proof clothing needs to be worn throughout pregnancy, and pregnant mothers who are prepared can start wearing radiation-proof clothing before pregnancy. Be prepared for early protection and early benefits, making pregnancy safer and more secure.

　　Can I still use a computer during pregnancy?

　　During my pregnancy, I used the computer to work and update my blog every day. I worked in front of the computer for four to five hours or more every day. It turns out that computers do not affect the baby in the belly. However, because of using the computer, I did feel some discomfort in the later stages of pregnancy - when I woke up every morning, my fingers would be a little sore, and I needed to massage my hands to soothe the finger muscles. The doctor said that this is caused by the more active fingers on the keyboard, which increases the burden on blood circulation. If you can avoid using the computer before going to bed, this discomfort will not be so obvious.

　　The reason for using computers as little as possible during pregnancy is not the radiation problem of computers. Every electrical appliance emits radiation, and computers are certainly no exception. However, the radiation from home computers is no higher than that of ordinary household appliances, so there is no need to worry. Doctors do not recommend that pregnant women use computers for a long time because sitting in a sitting position for a long time can easily cause fatigue and aggravate swollen feet. Therefore, even if you need to use a computer for a long time, you should get up and move around every 30 to 40 minutes.

　　Can I still use a microwave during pregnancy?

　　I tried to use the microwave as little as possible during my pregnancy. On the one hand, be careful about radiation, but on the other hand, there is really no need to use a microwave oven - meals heated in a microwave oven or convenience foods processed in a microwave oven are not suitable for pregnant women. Occasionally when I need to use the microwave oven, I will immediately run to the side of the microwave oven about two meters away after pressing the start button, instead of facing the microwave oven head-on. If you are also worried about radiation from the microwave oven, you can use the microwave oven the same way as I did.

　　However, there is currently no clear evidence that microwave radiation may cause birth defects. It is true that compared to home appliances such as TVs and refrigerators, the radiation value of microwave ovens is relatively high, but this does not mean that you will be harmed. Because the microwave oven only works when the sealing door is closed, you will not be exposed to a lot of radiation. Of course, this premise is that the microwave oven you use is a qualified product. If the microwave oven you are using is very old, there may be a risk of microfiltration leakage, so please try not to use it. In addition, you can also try stuffing a piece of paper into the gap in the microwave door. If the paper can be pulled out, it means that the seal of the microwave oven is not tight and there is a safety hazard.

　　Can using an electric blanket cause miscarriage?

　　Electric blankets, like microwave ovens, are considered products that should never be used during pregnancy. There have also been some reports of miscarriages caused by the use of electric blankets. Therefore, many people blame radiation for the miscarriage caused by electric blankets. In fact, the main cause of miscarriage caused by electric blankets is improper use.

　　The reason why electric blankets are likely to cause miscarriage is that electric blankets can cause the pregnant woman's body temperature to be too high, and the baby's body temperature will also rise accordingly. When the baby's body temperature is too high, it can cause nerve tube malformation or other problems and cause miscarriage.

　　When the house is not heated enough in winter, the extremely cold indoor environment is not conducive to pregnant women. healthy , you still need to use an electric blanket at this time, but you must pay attention to the temperature setting, as long as your body feels warm.

　　But for safety reasons, the first three months of pregnancy is an important period for the baby's neurological development, and you should try to avoid using electric blankets during this time.

　　Does TV also emit radiation?

　　Any kind of home appliances have radiation, but you can watch TV programs with confidence. However, if you sit or lie down for a long time watching TV, you will feel Eye Fatigue, headache, brain swelling, and poor blood circulation in the limbs. For pregnant women, don’t do anything for too long and learn to do it in moderation. Because maintaining one movement for too long will make you feel tired, you should also be careful not to take a walk in the fresh air for too long, because fatigue is the biggest harm to pregnant women.

　　Does B-ultrasound examination harm the health of the fetus?

　　It is generally believed that it is safe to undergo less than 10 B-ultrasound examinations during the entire pregnancy. In fact, the number of B-ultrasound examinations in the prenatal examination plan formulated by domestic hospitals for pregnant women does not exceed 10 times. Most doctors believe that it is very necessary to have two B-ultrasound prenatal examinations during the entire pregnancy. One is at around 20 weeks. At this time, you can already check the details of the baby's body, and even count the baby's fingers and toes to understand whether the basic development of the fetus is normal; the other is at 36 weeks to understand the fetal position and predict the fetal weight to determine the final method of delivery. In addition, several B-ultrasound examinations during pregnancy are also necessary and important. The first time is between 6 and 10 weeks. The examination of fetal buds and fetal heart rate can make you feel more at ease about your pregnancy. At 12 to 13 weeks, because domestic hospitals will require pregnant women to start filing examinations at this stage, they will also do a comprehensive examination including B-ultrasound to understand the condition of the pregnant woman. For pregnant women over 35 years old, this B-ultrasound examination is necessary because the precise number of weeks of pregnancy is required for subsequent blood screening for Down syndrome.

　　Therefore, although there is no clear conclusion yet on whether B-ultrasound examination will have adverse effects on the baby, in fact, there is no proof that B-ultrasound examination is directly related to birth defects, and B-ultrasound examination is irreplaceable for the safety of pregnancy, so it is still recommended that you perform necessary B-ultrasound examination according to the doctor's advice.

　　Moreover, every examination can leave a rare souvenir photo for the baby. This is a memory that our generation lacks!

　　Can I use a mobile phone during pregnancy?

　　Living in this era of convenience, you simply cannot live without some items, such as your mobile phone.

　　The debate over cell phone radiation has never stopped. Some scientists believe that mobile phones can cause radiation to the human body; but some experts believe that non-ionizing radiation from mobile phones will not harm pregnant women and fetuses. At least, there is currently no evidence that cell phone radiation is dangerous to human health. But mobile phones are a new thing after all, and many of their impacts have yet to be tested by time. At present, there is no way for us to live without mobile phones, so we might as well try to learn some ways to reduce mobile phone radiation:

　　Shorten the call time; try not to use your mobile phone in areas with weak signals, because the stronger the signal, the less energy the mobile phone requires and the smaller the radiation; texting has much less radiation than making calls; do not put your mobile phone in your pocket.

　　Under no circumstances should you use a cell phone while driving.

　　Can I use a hair dryer during pregnancy?

　　I used a hair dryer all the time during my pregnancy. Although it is mentioned in many online forums for expectant mothers that hair dryers should be used as little as possible during pregnancy to avoid harming the baby, more expectant mothers are panicked about this: "Huh? I use it every day and I'm 36 weeks pregnant! ”

　　Every home appliance contains radiation, and hair dryers are certainly no exception. However, based on what is currently known, there is no conclusive evidence of the impact of its radiation on pregnant women. Therefore, if you need it, you can use a hair dryer with confidence. Wet hair can easily cause headaches and other uncomfortable symptoms. Of course, you can also use a drying cap, which can also make your hair dry as quickly as possible.

　　99enthusiastic doctor Warm reminder Women should get more rest during pregnancy, stay away from bad environments, eat more green foods to prevent radiation, be careful about using electrical appliances, and pregnant mothers can learn more.
