I got pregnant while taking Chinese medicine.

Some Chinese herbal medicines contain ingredients such as flavonoids, which have certain toxic side effects. There are many types of Chinese herbal medicines, and a prescription may contain hundreds of Chinese herbal medicines. Therefore, there is no definite standard for the effects of Chinese herbal medicines on pregnant mothers and fetuses. If several types of Chinese herbal medicines are used together, the side effects are more complicated, which often affects the growth and development of the fetus, especially in the first three months of pregnancy. It is basically the same as drugs, and can easily cause fetal malformations, premature babies, miscarriages or stillbirths, so it cannot be ignored. Therefore, pregnant women must be careful when taking Chinese herbal medicines during pregnancy, and they must consult a doctor before taking Chinese herbal medicines.

Chinese herbal medicines that are not suitable for consumption during pregnancy can be roughly divided into three categories:

Medicines that are definitely contraindicated for people with high blood pressure: Croton, Pharbitis seeds, Mylabris, lead powder, liquid mercury, Euphorbia, Sanguisorba officinalis, Achyranthes bidentata, Pokeweed, and giant centipede, etc.

Drugs that should be avoided as much as possible for blood poisoning: Lute Technology, Aconitum, Raw Rhubarb, Sodium Sulfate, Gelsemium elegans, Daphne daphne, Trillium, Raw Arisaema, Trumpet Creeper, Liu Jinu, Verbena, Gleditsia sinensis, Raw Notopterygium wilfordii, Chinese medicine pangolin, Belamcanda chinensis, Realgar, Borax, etc.

Supplementary medicines for prevention of independent use: Angelica root, rose, peach kernel, pollen, rhubarb, turmeric, fructus aurantii, betel nut, magnolia bark, Sichuan pepper, bitter leucophylla, bezoar pill, akebia, feldspar, etc.

Judging from the characteristics of medicines, all medicines that are famous for their smooth, aggressive, purgative, spicy, highly toxic, and hot effects are within the scope of taboos.

If you get pregnant while taking Chinese herbal medicine for irregular menstruation, you should first find out the first day of your last menstrual period. Second, clarify the time to take Chinese herbal medicine for regulating irregular menstruation. Third, are there any medicinal ingredients in the Chinese herbal medicines for irregular menstruation that are prohibited from use during pregnancy? If within 5 weeks of pregnancy, in other words within 35 days of pregnancy, when some drugs that are prohibited or used with caution during pregnancy are used, we can consider taking it easy, and taking it easy means waiting for natural replacement. If the drug has a harmful effect on the test tube embryo, it will cause miscarriage. Because nature has an efficiency of survival of the fittest, if it is not affected, you can get pregnant again. This is the meaning of taking things as they come.
