Treatment for appendicitis is immediate surgery. Laparoscopy, with smaller incisions, is used in some situations, but laparoscopy may be more difficult to perform during pregnancy because of the enlarged uterus. Serious complications can arise when an infected appendix ruptures. Most physicians believe it's better to operate and remove a normal appendix than to risk infection of the abdominal cavity if the infected appendix ruptures. Many women express concerns over the safety of microwave ovens.
Microwave ovens are helpful to busy people who prepare meals.
However, we don't know if there is danger to you if you use a microwave oven during pregnancy. More research is needed. Initial research indicates tissues developing in the body, which would include the human fetus, may be particularly sensitive to the effects of microwaves. A microwave oven heats tissues from the inside. Follow the directions provided with your microwave oven.
