Can I fly if I am pregnant?

So far, there are no medical reports about the adverse effects of security inspection on pregnant women and fetuses. At the same time, the radiation value of the security instrument is actually very low, and the impact on the body is close to zero. Therefore, when pregnant women pass the security inspection machine, it will not affect the baby in the abdomen. In addition, some common radiation in life, such as computer radiation and microwave radiation, have little influence on pregnant women and fetuses, so pregnant mothers need not worry too much.

Precautions for pregnant women flying

1, security must be checked, this is not negotiable. But pregnant mothers can ask for manual security check.

2. The domestic security door is only used for metal detection, and its strength is generally not high. It has no effect on the fetus.

It doesn't matter if it's short distance. The air pressure in the cockpit is low and the seats are narrow. When take-off and landing are bumpy, you may get tachycardia. Not suitable for long-distance flight, but it has little impact. There are plenty of people flying with big bellies.

4, special attention: If you fly to the eastern United States, I suggest you take the west coast to transfer. The route from China to the eastern United States will cross the Arctic Circle. Flying high in the Arctic for several hours is equivalent to taking several chest X-rays. Flight attendants who want to get pregnant will apply in advance to avoid this route.
