How to check for threatened abortion

How to check threatened abortion? For all expectant mothers, it is inevitable to go to the hospital for various examinations when they are pregnant. Threatened abortion is also a disease that needs to be checked in the hospital. Today, the editor brings you some information about how to check threatened abortion. Let's take a look.

Threatened abortion refers to a small amount of vaginal bleeding that occurs in early pregnancy, which comes and goes, accompanied by mild lower abdominal pain and backache. It may lead to miscarriage, or it may continue the pregnancy after appropriate treatment. It is mainly caused by the weak constitution of the pregnant woman, or fatigue, trauma (including improper vaginal examination and sexual intercourse). It is equivalent to "fetal bleeding" in traditional Chinese medicine. There are many reasons for threatened abortion, the most important of which is embryo abnormalities caused by genetic factors. The miscarriage caused by this can actually be said to be a good thing. Because the abnormal fetus, if it is really born at full term, will also have deformities or abnormalities.

The diagnosis can be made based on medical history and clinical manifestations. Sometimes, it is necessary to combine gynecological examination, B-ultrasound, blood hCG and other physical examinations or auxiliary examinations to make a clear diagnosis and classify the type of miscarriage. For early pregnancy, especially threatened miscarriage shortly after menstruation, the main focus is on observing the possibility of continuing the pregnancy.

Regarding inspection:

The main auxiliary diagnostic methods are B-ultrasound and blood hCG level detection. In normal early pregnancy, the blood hCG level has a doubling time, and blood hCG can be measured continuously to understand the fetal condition. If the blood hCG level increases by less than 65% every 48 hours, it may indicate a poor prognosis for pregnancy. At the same time, continuous monitoring by B-ultrasound is also of great significance. If only the fetal sac is seen but the fetus is not seen for a long time, or the fetus is present but the fetal heart rate is not seen for a long time, it may indicate a poor prognosis.

When threatened abortion is suspected, blood HCG, progesterone and B-ultrasound tests are needed. If it is confirmed to be threatened abortion, progesterone, vitamin E and other drugs need to be used under the guidance of a doctor to preserve the pregnancy.
