Mammogram and TTC?
Hi guys!
Quick question. I had to have an emergency mammogram today. We are ttc and I found a scary frozen pea sized lump that scared the crap out of me!!!!
My ob sent me for a scan immediately
That was at 2pm today
AND...of course....today I get my positive OPK 😱
We have not had any sex in several days 4+ and when we did, there was no deposit. Lol
So right now, I知 very confident I知 not pregnant
But I知 unsure if it痴 safe to try tonight? Having had a mammogram this afternoon? Radiation and ttc?
Any feedback?
Many thanks!!!!

It would not affect you at all. I think it is an excellent idea to get a mammogram before one TTC.

It's better to look back on life and say: "I can't believe I did that" than to look back and say "I wish I did that".

I'd love to answer your question but I really don't know! DH is exposed to radiation daily at work so I asked him how much he's exposed to on a daily basis but it's less than what you'd get from a mammogram (0.004 millisieverts vs 0.4). I did read that it's a much lower dose than say a chest x-ray and that modern mammograms use very little radiation.

Really very unlikely that one little old mammogram could do anything to affect a sway.

2 weeks before. Keep in mind that many people think they actually sway blue and WANT to be on them for their sway. OPK are fallible. We use them because it's the best technology we have, but...
