Is usg harmful during pregnancy?

Question

My gynac has asked for one more scan and this will be my 3rd one. Thoda darr lag raha hai ki itni baar ultrasound karna baby ke liye theek hai ya not. Are these scans really safe for the baby? anyone?

Daakshayani Pradhan · Answer

It is completely safe as it uses sound waves, not radiation. Just schedule them as per your doctor's timeline so you don't waste time on extra unnecessary scans.

Who told you this? Ultrasound is 100% safe and very important to check baby's growth, so please do all scans on time.

Aga, ultrasound standard procedure hai, ho na! Absolutely safe for the baby, so don't listen to random people's talks.

My toddler is 2 now and we had so many scans because of a low lying placenta. Trust me, it does not harm the baby at all.

Arnavi Desai · Answer

Not at all harmful! I had severe vomiting and had to get multiple scans to check on the baby, and my little one is perfectly healthy.

I asked the senior radiologist at my hospital about this, and they confirmed USG is completely safe and uses non-ionizing technology. You can ask your doctor for reassurance too.
