I am 25 years old female. I had a chest x ray on september 17th and I found out I was pregnant on september 26th knowing that my last menstrual cycle was on august 27th. My doctor said I am less than month pregnant using the ultrasound. My question is can the x ray be harmful to the embryo? I'm very worried please answer my question. Thank you.
