In recent years, the incidence of leukemia is extremely high, causing leukemia factors are more, may be many people will ask whether radiation will have an impact on pregnant mothers, the answer is yes. With the progress of society, the development of the times, now a variety of electronic products and electrical appliances have entered our lives, to bring us convenience at the same time, but also on our body to bring certain effects. Especially for pregnant women, if often exposed to strong radiation electronic products and appliances, it is likely to cause some harm to the fetus.
What is radiation?
Radiation is a general term for all substances that can cause ionization of matter. Including cosmic rays, X-rays and radiation from radioactive substances, radionuclides in the earth's crust and radon in the soil. Artificial radiation has been widely used in various industrial fields, especially medical equipment, nuclear energy and scientific research, is one of the important sources of ionizing radiation. The radiation generated during the work of common household appliances such as high-voltage lines, Wi-Fi, cell phones, TVs, computers and microwave ovens, on the other hand, is non-ionizing radiation.
Many electronic products electrical products contain a certain amount of radiation, such as computers, TVs, cell phones, etc. There are also different types and types of radiation, the most common of which are electrical radiation, nuclear radiation. Radiation on human health is very big, long-term exposure to radiation will lead to a lot of diseases in the body, pregnant women are affected by radiation, may lead to fetal deformities, fetal development abnormalities and so on.
Pregnant mothers are exposed to radiation, will it increase the risk of leukemia in the baby?
When it comes to leukemia everyone is no stranger to it, leukemia is a malignant tumor with a very high incidence in recent years, and one of the cancers we commonly call cancer. Leukemia in children's malignant tumors in the incidence of extremely high, leukemia in addition to genetic factors, but also may be due to some behavior during pregnancy lead to hidden, thus increasing the risk of leukemia.
Radiation is a way of transmitting energy that penetrates the human body and can be harmful to it. Some studies have shown that radiation is indeed closely linked to leukemia, and that pregnant mothers who are exposed to high doses of radiation are at increased risk of developing leukemia in their babies.
Pregnant mothers affected by radiation, the light pregnant women appear diarrhea, vomiting, fever and other symptoms, serious cases, may lead to miscarriage. Especially in the early stages of pregnancy, the fetus at this time has not yet fully developed and stabilized, frequent exposure to radiation is not conducive to the development and growth of the fetus.
While studies have shown that radiation increases the risk of leukemia in babies, it is possible to avoid and reduce the risk of leukemia if it is well protected and controlled. Therefore, it is important for pregnant women to be more cautious and minimize their exposure to electronics or electrical products during pregnancy.
