In Pregnancy
Many conditions are different in the context of
pregnancy, while some arise only during or shortly
after pregnancy.
Particular care must be taken with investigations
(for example, to avoid radiation exposure to the
fetus) and treatment (to avoid the use of drugs which
harm the fetus).
These issues are highlighted by ‘In Pregnancy’ boxes.
