Why does amniocentesis lead to miscarriage? There are 3 reasons

During pregnancy, we need to perform amniocentesis, but sometimes miscarriage may occur. This is mainly affected by factors such as abnormal fetal development, intrauterine infection, and short pregnancy period. Therefore, we must avoid these matters in time. For the health of the child, we must pay attention to some details of changes in the body.

Amniocentesis is a test we do before childbirth. It mainly obtains fetal changes by taking samples of amniotic fluid from pregnant women. Sometimes, a miscarriage may occur after amniocentesis. Why does amniocentesis cause miscarriage? Let's take a look today.
1. Fetal chromosomal abnormality <br/>Under normal circumstances, the risk of using amniotic fluid for three operations is relatively small. If we have a miscarriage after amniocentesis, it may be due to the development of the fetus. A miscarriage due to chromosomes is relatively common. When there is a fetal chromosomal abnormality, the fetus may need timely attention and be more careful in daily life.
2. Intrauterine infection <br/>During the operation, some bacteria may be brought into the amniotic sac, causing infection in the uterus. The pregnant woman may feel some discomfort, causing high fever and abdominal pain. Therefore, there will be certain symptoms during the operation. After the operation, you must pay attention to treatment and personal hygiene. If there are any changes in your usual situation, you should go to the hospital for consultation immediately.
3. Short pregnancy period <br/>There is a certain pregnancy period when we do amniocentesis. Generally, the pregnancy period is more suitable between 17 and 21 weeks. If it is less than 17 weeks, the amniotic fluid in the uterus may cause symptoms of dehydration, which may lead to miscarriage. Therefore, when doing amniocentesis, you should pay attention to your pregnancy period and arrange the time reasonably according to the doctor's advice. There will be no problem in doing amniocentesis at the right time.
Only by doing amniocentesis at the right time can it be better beneficial to the development of the fetus. In daily life, you should pay more attention to checking various physical standards. The above is an introduction to amniocentesis and why miscarriage occurs. I hope everyone can pay attention to it in life.
