Many pregnant women find that they need to attract mosquitoes more than usual, and there is actually a certain reason for this. This is because pregnant women have a high exhalation volume and a relatively high abdominal temperature, which attracts mosquitoes with more substances emitted by the body, causing certain difficulties in daily life. So, what mosquito prevention measures can pregnant women use?
1. From a health perspective, it is recommended to install screen windows or use electric mosquito swatters, as well as physical methods such as mosquito nets and mosquito lamps to drive away mosquitoes during this critical period. It is also relatively healthy to use cooling oil or wind oil powder in the bedroom.
2. In contrast, electric mosquito coils have less pollution. Traditional mosquito coils produce harmful substances during combustion and volatilization, which is very detrimental to pregnant women. At the same time, it can also cause indoor air pollution, and prolonged exposure will naturally have adverse effects.
3. It is recommended to open the window for ventilation before going to bed. After closing the window, the air conditioning can be adjusted appropriately for meetings. This will lower the temperature, and mosquitoes will automatically choose other spaces.
However, we remind everyone not to use flower dew after being bitten by mosquitoes, as flower dew contains traditional Chinese medicine ingredients such as musk and mint, which can have more serious consequences for the uterus during pregnancy. Pregnant women using it may increase the risk of miscarriage. I would like to remind everyone to choose physical mosquito repellent methods from a healthy perspective, as this is more beneficial for the development of the fetus.
