Do pelvic x-rays in children affect fertility

Occasional pelvic x-rays in children are relatively low in radiation exposure and usually do not have a major effect on the bones or reproductive system, nor do they affect reproductive function.
However, if they receive frequent pelvic x-rays, their bodies are frequently exposed to radiation, which may cause damage to cells and can affect the development of tissues and organs. Children grow more rapidly and frequent x-ray exposure may even induce genetic mutations.
After receiving pelvic x-ray irradiation, children can drink more water and eat more vegetables and fruits to promote metabolism and discharge of radioactive substances. When receiving pelvic X-ray irradiation, children need to be careful to cover their reproductive organs to prevent radiation damage.
If pelvic X-ray is needed, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time for detailed advice on the specific precautions to be taken in order to prevent any effect on fertility.
