is there any problem when we take x-ray with 3 months pregnancy?

Answer 1

There is absolutely no reason not to have an extremity xray as the 'beam' is well localised and the radiographer should screen the abdomen with a lead apron. Pelvic and abdominal films should be avoided if possible, as the forst respondent states, unless absolutely necessary.
Do not be frightened by scare-mongers who have no basis for their opinions.
If you are worried, speak to your referring doctor or the radiographer.

Answer 2

depends on the type of X-ray you need and exactly how much radiation you're going to be exposed to. The greater your exposure to radiation, the greater the risk to your baby. Most diagnostic X-rays (dental X-rays, for example) do not expose the fetus to high enough levels of radiation to cause a problem. While fetal exposure over 10 rads (the unit of measurement for absorbed radiation) has been shown to increase the risks for learning disabilities and eye abnormalities, you needn't worry. It's rare for a diagnostic X-ray to exceed 5 rads.

For example, the amount of radiation that a baby gets from a mother's dental X-ray is only 0.01 millirad. Since a rad is equal to 1,000 millirads, one would have to have 100,000 dental X-rays for the baby to receive just one rad. Other estimated fetal doses are 60 millirads for a chest X-ray, 290 millirads for an abdominal X-ray, and 800 millirads for a computerised tomographic (CT) scan. For perspective, during the normal course of pregnancy your baby is exposed to about 100 millirads of natural radiation from the sun and earth.

Although the risk from diagnostic X-rays is low, experts often recommend that women postpone getting unnecessary X-rays until after giving birth. However, if your doctor feels X-rays are needed for your particular medical situation, it may ease your mind to know that the amount of radiation your baby will receive will most likely be well within the safe range. On the day of the test, make sure the radiographer knows that you are pregnant so she can properly shield your abdomen

Answer 3

I've read a lot in magazines lately about that-they say that if the benefit outweighs the risk, then it's fine to have dental X-rays or X-rays not of your abdominal area. Just ask that they cover you with the lead apron or even two if it makes you feel better even if the X-ray is of your hand.

Answer 4

X-Ray's aren't really safe anytime during pregnancy, especially during the first three months when your baby is most venerable.

Answer 5

Radiological exams during preganancy are better avoided..
If it is un avoidable, a protective shield may be provided ..during the radiological exam..
But 3m pregnancy..I dont think that any sensible doctor will advise for x rays..

Answer 6

avoid it if possible.

it's not devastating to a fetus, but they are more sensitive than post-term babies and adults

if it's necessary, or an emergency, they have precautions they take with pregnant mothers, but most doctors already know this and won't send you for one while you're pregnant unless you need it.

Answer 7

No, its not safe. Dont do it.
