Questions about threatened miscarriage

Nowadays, society emphasizes gender equality, allowing women to step out of family life and hold up half the sky. Due to the increase in labor intensity, pressure in the working environment, and the fast pace of life, many pregnant women with weak constitutions have threatened abortions. Let's take a look at the problems about threatened abortion:

Any symptoms such as abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding, and cervical dilation that occur within 28 weeks of pregnancy is called threatened abortion, within 12 weeks of pregnancy is called early threatened abortion, and after that is called late threatened abortion.

Generally, the main symptom of threatened abortion is a small amount of vaginal bleeding after pregnancy. Depending on the amount of bleeding and the time it accumulates in the vagina, the color can be bright red, pink or dark brown. Sometimes it is accompanied by mild lower abdominal pain, a feeling of falling when the fetus moves, backache and abdominal distension.

There are many reasons for threatened abortion, the main reason is embryo abnormality caused by genetic factors. If this abnormally developed fetus is born at full term, it will also be deformed or abnormal. In addition, insufficient oxygen supply to the umbilical cord and amniotic fluid disease are also one of the causes of threatened abortion. If the pregnant woman is emotionally unstable or malnourished during pregnancy, it can also cause abortion.

Other reasons such as insufficient oxygen supply to the umbilical cord, amniotic fluid disease, placental virus infection and certain gynecological inflammation can also cause miscarriage. Malnutrition of pregnant women is also one of the causes of miscarriage. Some pregnant women have severe nausea and vomiting in the early stages of pregnancy, resulting in extreme nutritional deficiency, which has a great impact on the development of the embryo and is also prone to miscarriage.

Gynecological examination can reveal that the cervix is ​​not open, the size of the uterus is consistent with the number of weeks of amenorrhea, and no pregnancy products are discharged. After bed rest and related pregnancy-preserving treatment, the clinical symptoms disappear and the pregnancy can continue. If symptoms such as vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain or backache continue to worsen, it may further develop into inevitable miscarriage.

About half of the patients with threatened abortion will have miscarriage. Excessive bleeding may lead to infection, or even sepsis and death. Therefore, if you have symptoms of threatened abortion, you must go to the hospital for examination in time. Especially if you have vaginal bleeding in the first 3 months of pregnancy, you should go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible, and do not try to keep the baby at home.
