Spine CT is a non-invasive imaging method used to evaluate the structure and pathology of the spine. Generally speaking, spine CT examination will not have a direct impact on fertility. Therefore, generally speaking, pregnancy preparation can be started immediately after spine CT examination.
However, if you have used a contrast agent that is potentially dangerous to the embryo during your spine CT examination, you may need to wait for a while until the contrast agent is completely eliminated from the body. The specific waiting time needs to be determined based on the doctor\’s advice. In addition, if you find any spinal problems or diseases during your spine CT examination, it is recommended to further discuss it with your doctor before preparing for pregnancy and proceed with treatment or rehabilitation according to your doctor\’s recommendations.
