Im in my second trimester and having bad acidity issues, doctor mentioned endoscopy might be needed to check. Now im scared because im pregnant. Has anyone gone through this while expecting?
This is really one for your doctors to decide, please dont go by random opinions for something like this. They usually do it only if truly needed and they take precautions. Talk to both your gynac and the specialist together, they'll weigh it for your case.
Honestly for any procedure during pregnancy, dont take internet's word, take your doctor's. They do these things carefully and only when needed. Ask them directly about safety and the timing.
From what I understand it can be done when necessary, but the decision really depends on why it's needed and which trimester you're in. This isnt something to guess about, your doctors will assess the risk versus benefit and tell you properly.
My husband's a doctor and these are usually only advised when really required, and the team plans it keeping the pregnancy in mind. So dont panic, but definitely have a clear chat with your specialist about why and how. Don't decide on your own.
