A member asked:
I read a male fetus is a risk factor for amniotic fluid embolism. is this true and why ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Where did you read it? What would you do differently if you were carrying a male child? Amniotic fluid embolism is a rare occurrence and a risk factor is c-section. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs.
