The risk of miscarriage during pregnancy or the same "threat" in the language of the elderly - is observed in 20% of pregnant women. Many of our pregnant women are at risk of having a first- or second-degree miscarriage. We will look for answers to questions such as what is the threat of miscarriage, how to detect and prevent it, as well as what to do at this time.
Signs of risk of miscarriage include:
1. Bleeding. Vaginal bleeding - can be different: slippery or numerous, long-lasting or rapid, the color of the discharge can be different: red or brown.
2. Pain in the lower abdomen. It is a non-permanent character and may vary in intensity and duration.
The reasons for the risk of miscarriage are:
1. Genetic disorders in the fetus. Here we are talking about natural selection and the risk of miscarriage due to genetic factors. In this case, the risk of miscarriage is that the fetus dies before birth and it is not possible (and not necessary) to stop it. It is only possible to find out why the fetus has stopped growing and to worry that it will not recur in the future.
2. Hormonal disorders. Any pregnancy is kept under the influence of the hormone progesterone. This hormone is produced by the corpus luteum at the beginning of pregnancy and then by the placenta. Its deficiency causes the fertilized egg to migrate to the cell.
3. The risk of miscarriage is also due to the overproduction of androgens - male sex hormones, which block the production of female hormones (progesterone and estragon).
4. Genetic conflicts between father and mother. When their genes are very similar to each other, when the mother's blood is rhesus-negative and the father's blood is rhesus-positive, the fetus is perceived by the mother's body as a foreign body.
5. Increased blood viscosity. This condition is more common in the late stages of pregnancy.
6. Structural features of the uterus. The curved and horny uterus also causes the fetus to not be able to position normally and to fall.
7. Various infectious diseases: measles, mumps, chlamydia, herpes, cytomegalovirus, pyelonephritis, pneumonia, and any other fever with any increase in fever can cause miscarriage.
8. Gynecological diseases. Uterine fibroids, endometritis, various inflammations, abortions and the stitches and spikes left after them have a negative impact on fetal development.
9. Endocrine diseases. Miscarriage can also be caused by diseases of the pancreas and diabetes.
10. It is recommended to consult a gynecologist before taking various tablets, capsules and mixtures.
11. Developmental defects of the placenta and cervical malformation can lead to its premature opening and miscarriage.
12. Emotional state of a pregnant woman: stress, anxiety and various protests affect the normal development of the fetus.
13. Harmful habits: smoking, drinking alcohol, coffee, etc. are not recommended during pregnancy.
14. Excessive physical exertion, falls, blows to the abdomen, and running can cause the fetus to fall at any time.
15. Statistics on the age of pregnant women show that women over the age of 35 are twice as likely to have a miscarriage.
