Is it safe to use a body fat analysis scale during pregnancy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not if it is DXA: DXA in used to evaluate body composition and includes X-rays and thus you can not do body composition during pregnancy unless there are very extenuating circumstances. There may be other types of imaging like MRI that are safe.
