Pulmonary embolism in pregnancy can occur due to increased blood clotting risk, especially in the legs, which can dislodge and travel to the lungs.

Diagnosis involves tests like a CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) and blood tests.

Yes, pulmonary embolism can be life-threatening, especially if the blood clot is large or causes significant obstruction in the lungs.

An ECG may show signs like heart strain but is not specific for diagnosing pulmonary embolism; imaging tests are needed for confirmation.

While it can help rule out other lung conditions, a normal chest X-ray doesn't exclude PE. Further imaging tests are often needed.

Your doctor will determine the appropriate activity level during recovery.

There isn't a specific diet for PE. A balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains supports overall health.
