Proper body conditioning before pregnancy can create the most favorable growth environment for the baby, which can effectively reduce the chance of the baby being sick at birth. For example, couples with acute measles or dermatitis should actively seek treatment before pregnancy to avoid giving birth to an allergic baby.
Common discomforts during pregnancy can be treated with Chinese medicine, such as pregnancy vomiting, abdominal pain, fetal leakage, unpredictable fetal movements, bleeding during pregnancy, colds during pregnancy, cough and itchy skin.
