It is generally recommended that the body temperature does not exceed 38.5 degrees and it is best not to use antipyretics. Therefore, pregnant women with a fever of 38 degrees can first take physical methods to cool down, such as warm water wiping the body, cold compress, hot bath, etc., and drink plenty of water during fever. If the body temperature rises to 38.5 degrees or above, you can take some drugs or antipyretics that help sweat.
