My wife is over nine months pregnant and has caught a cold. How should we handle this?

Answer: You can take traditional Chinese medicine; most cold remedies are safe during pregnancy. An experienced TCM practitioner can tailor the treatment based on syndrome differentiation, so there’s no problem treating the cold. Don’t blindly believe that all medications are harmful to the fetus—this notion is incorrect. For example, Jingjie, Fangfeng, Qianghuo, and Duhuo are not only effective cold remedies but are also widely recognized as fetal-preserving medicines.
