Yes. Bawal ang x-ray para sa mga buntis. Lalo na s first trimester ng pregnancy. If this is a medical examination for pre-employment, you may want to ask your employer for some special consideration. The next thing you can try is a chest UTZ but it is more expensive and hindi kahat ng makikita sa xray ay makikita din dito but it's the next imaging na pwede mapagawa sa buntis
