I had to get a chest xray done last week for a bad cough and only after that I realised I might be pregnant. Now im a little worried, will the xray even show anything related to that? Pls share if anyone knows.
No, chest x-ray won't show a baby, unless you swallowed one, haha! Please do a normal urine kit test, and if you are pregnant, tell the radiologist immediately because x-rays are avoided during pregnancy.
Actually no, yaar! Chest x-ray can't detect pregnancy, you need a urine test or blood test for that. Also, if you suspect you are pregnant, avoid x-rays as radiation isn't safe.
No dear, a chest x-ray doesn't show pregnancy. After my C-section, I had to undergo some tests, and doctors are very careful about radiation, so please tell your doctor if there's any chance you are pregnant before getting any x-ray.
