🚫 X-Rays During Pregnancy: Know the Risks! 🤰
Not all scans are harmful. Ultrasound and MRI are safe as they don’t use radiation.
But scans like X-ray, CT, DEXA, or Mammogram involve radiation that can alter a baby’s DNA, leading to birth defects or malformations.
👩⚕️ If you’re pregnant, always inform your doctor before any scan, and try to avoid X-rays. Your safety and your baby’s come first. ❤️
