Can pregnant women come into contact with chemotherapy patients?

It is very important for pregnant women to take good care of their bodies during pregnancy. In daily life, they must be aware of some precautions. Generally speaking, when pregnant, contact with cancer patients who are undergoing chemotherapy will not affect their health. Of course, it should also be noted that if the cancer patient has some infectious diseases, they should not be contacted at this time to avoid infection.

Pregnant women should avoid contact with these types of people

1. People who love smoking

Almost every family has someone who smokes, and even outside, you can often see many people smoking. Although pregnant mothers do not smoke, they will be affected by secondhand smoke due to the influence of other people's smoking. A survey shows that the harm of secondhand smoke is greater than direct smoking. Pregnant mothers should never come into contact with smokers after becoming pregnant. When going out, try to go to non-smoking areas and be sure to take protective measures when smokers pass by.

Long-term exposure to secondhand smoke can cause sudden fetal death or low weight, and damage the pregnant mother's body functions. Therefore, if there is someone who loves to smoke at home, you must not smoke at home. If possible, try not to smoke and create a smoke-free environment for the pregnant mother. During pregnancy, you should avoid people who smoke. If you were often exposed to secondhand smoke before pregnancy, or if you have smoked before, you can eat more fruits and vegetables, drink more water, urinate more, exercise more and sweat more to excrete harmful substances such as nicotine from your body.

2. People with infectious diseases

After a woman becomes pregnant, her immune function will drop significantly, making her very susceptible to virus invasion. If a friend around you is sick or even hospitalized after you become pregnant, do not visit them for the sake of face. It would be bad if you accidentally get infected with the virus. Because there is an extra fetus in the belly, if the pregnant mother takes medicine, it will indirectly affect the fetus. If the wrong medicine is taken, it may even cause fetal malformation. This is no joke. If someone in the family is sick, pregnant mothers should not force themselves to take care of the child. Their bodies are weak and they need to be taken care of. If they force themselves too much, their bodies will not get a good rest and they will be easily infected with infectious viruses.

Family members should also consider the pregnant mother more. If you have a cold or fever, it is best not to have contact with the pregnant mother. Contact is inevitable at home. You must be careful when talking or sneezing. These small actions will provide opportunities for viral infection.

A woman's body is very fragile after pregnancy. Family members must pay attention to the living environment of the pregnant mother and try their best to create a good environment for the pregnant mother to protect the fetus, especially to avoid contact between the two types of people mentioned above and the pregnant mother.
