Can Electric Shock Cause Miscarriage?
Question: I had a Frozen embyro transfer 2 hours ago and just now touched the back of an open TV my husband was working on and received a shock. The shock was to my finger but I felt it in my chest as well. Can this hurt the embryo or implantation
Brief Answer:
It can damage indirectly by causing to much stress
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear and thanks for your query.
First -Congratulations and wish you a good motherhood while you have had an embryo transfer.
Second - It's not the shock to your finger that can cause any abortion but stress you may have.
Hence please be calm, be hydrated and take a walk .
Best Regards
