Can pregnant women use headphones, and does it affect the fetus?

Under normal circumstances, pregnant women can use headphones, which generally do not affect the fetus. Specific details are as follows:

Pregnant women wearing headphones usually does not directly affect the fetus. Sound reaches the fetus through bone conduction via the maternal body tissues, rather than through the ears. Therefore, the sound produced by headphones does not directly reach the fetal ears. It is important to avoid setting the volume too high when using headphones. Excessively loud sounds may cause strong vibrations, leading to discomfort or damage to the pregnant woman's ears. Prolonged headphone use may also place strain on the muscles of the head and neck; therefore, it is recommended to take regular breaks, move around, and avoid wearing headphones continuously for extended periods.

In summary, moderate use of headphones typically does not have a direct impact on the fetus. If any discomfort occurs, it is advisable to seek medical attention at a hospital promptly to avoid delaying treatment.
