What are the hazards of CT to pregnant women

In life, many pregnant women need to undergo CT scans every time they have a prenatal check-up. The purpose of CT scans is to better see the child's development status and to better determine whether the fetus is fully developed. However, in fact, everyone does not know that CT scans are particularly harmful to pregnant women. Let us learn about it together.

During the first 8 weeks of pregnancy, the baby's organs are developing and forming. The X-rays used in CT scans can easily cause developmental deformities, stillbirth, incomplete or poor development of organs, etc. Therefore, from the perspective of eugenics, exposure to radiation in early pregnancy can have many uncertainties on the future development of the fetus.

However, this situation is not absolute. It also involves many factors such as radiation dose, absorbed dose and individual sensitivity differences.

I think it is best for you to avoid tension and anxiety (because emotional factors can also affect the baby's development, right!), please make adjustments in all aspects during pregnancy, and follow the doctor's pregnancy check-ups, so that you can understand the baby's development in time.

In the above article, we learned about the harm of CT to the human body. In fact, the harm to the body is particularly great for both pregnant women and normal people. Everyone needs to pay more attention in life and try not to be exposed to the radiation brought by CT.
