Hello, Im 18 And Had A CT Scan On July

Hello, Im 18 and had a CT scan on July 16th and they found not much other then I was about to release an egg as apart of normal ovulation. I am now pregnant and believe that this was around the time I conceived. Is the baby okay even after the CT scan?

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
CT scan contains lot of harmful radiations. It could cause radiation effects on developing fetus.
It is not possible at this stage weather it has caused any effects or not.
You will come to know only during anomaly scan done during 20 weeks along with double or triple markers.
So relax now and eat healthy food. Drink good quantity of water.
Hopefully, it shouldn't have caused any harm.
Wish you all the best.
