Radiation sources are everywhere around us. As a special group of pregnant women, how do we correctly judge radiation knowledge?
Let’s start with the radiation sources hidden around us. We\’ll line them up. Expectant mothers will not be too panic after understanding this!
X-ray radiation index:
X-rays are electromagnetic waves with very short wavelength and strong penetrating ability. If you are exposed to too many X-rays, you may have a radiation reaction or even some degree of radiation damage.
However, if the X-ray dose is within the allowable range, the effect is usually small. For pregnant mothers, excessive exposure to X-rays can lead to severe fetal malformation, miscarriage and stillbirth in early pregnancy. Generally speaking, X-rays have relatively little impact on the fetus when irradiating the chest or limbs. The closer to the due date, the smaller the impact.
Hair dryer radiation index:
When it comes to radiation from home appliances, people tend to ignore the smaller hair dryer, but it is the \”king of radiation\”. Hair dryers are indeed high-radiation household appliances, especially when they are turned on and off, the radiation is the largest, and the higher the power, the greater the radiation. Because it is used close to the head, it mainly causes dysfunction of the central nervous system and mental system, mainly manifesting as dizziness, fatigue, memory loss, loss of appetite, insomnia, forgetfulness and other sub-health symptoms.
Microwave oven radiation indicators:
Although microwave radiation is the first household appliance, it is often ignored and has a greater impact on pregnant mothers. Note when using: Do not place the microwave oven in the bedroom. Do not stand next to the microwave when it is open. Pregnant mothers should not use microwave ovens to cook food, because cooking food requires close contact with the microwave oven for a long time, and the radiation received is the greatest.
Computer monitor and host radiation indicators:
The computer monitor and host are the two parts of the computer that radiate the most radiation. It is one of the appliances that expectant mothers talk about the most and pay attention to. Basically, talking about \”brain\” changes the color. The extent of the impact of computer radiation on the fetus has not yet been determined, but everyone can rest assured that exposure can be minimized.
Mobile phone radiation index:
When the mobile phone is in working condition, the mobile phone will emit radio waves to the transmitting base station. Any kind of radio waves will be absorbed by the human body to a greater or lesser extent, thereby changing human tissue and possibly affecting the health of the human body. Although the radiation from mobile phones is not high, it is closely related to people. It is a common tool that pregnant mothers never leave their hands. Improper use may have adverse consequences. When the mobile phone signal is first connected, it is in the maximum output power state, and the radiation of the mobile phone is the largest, so the mobile phone should be kept away from the head at the moment of connection. When the signal is bad, radiation increases.
