Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes the method of measuring the pulse, but although there are still few people studying traditional Chinese medicine nowadays, most women go to the hospital for examination or use test strips for testing during pregnancy. Can taking a pulse accurately detect pregnancy?
It is not particularly accurate to detect pregnancy by taking a pulse, especially when a woman is just pregnant. Only when a woman is two or three months pregnant can she use experienced traditional Chinese medicine to understand her pulse. If she is not particularly experienced, she cannot detect it.
Nowadays, most women can use test strips to detect pregnancy regardless of the duration, but traditional Chinese medicine cannot measure the pulse when a woman is just pregnant. So it is best for women to use test strips or go to the hospital for B-ultrasound testing during pregnancy, but B-ultrasound also requires women to be at least 35 days pregnant before it can be detected.
Generally, women only show signs of pregnancy when they are 4-5 months pregnant, so medical methods can only be used for testing when they have no idea. In addition, women will not experience menstruation after pregnancy, which is also the best criterion for judging pregnancy. Some women also have menstrual irregularities, but it is also abnormal if they have not had their period for a long time.
