When pregnant women have placenta previa, they should engage in moderate self-care, but avoid all strenuous activities such as running and jumping, and some movements are absolutely unsuitable, such as squatting. In addition to daily care, regular check ups are also necessary. So, how often should a low placenta be rechecked?
Low placenta can easily cause bleeding, requiring bed rest, avoiding walking, prohibiting sexual activity, closely monitoring symptoms, and paying attention to vaginal bleeding. Generally, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a B-ultrasound examination in about two weeks to observe changes in the position of the placenta. If there is bleeding during the process of fetal protection treatment, it is necessary to seek medical attention at any time, stay in the hospital for observation, monitor fetal heart rate, and provide targeted treatment in emergency situations.
Low placenta previa is a type of placenta previa, which is divided into three types: complete placenta previa, partial placenta previa, and low placenta previa. Complete placenta previa refers to the complete coverage of the cervix by placental tissue; Partial placenta previa only partially covers the cervical opening with placental tissue. Compared to other types of placenta previa, low placenta previa is still a relatively mild one, but pregnant mothers should not ignore it.
Usually, if pregnant women belong to the elderly group and have uterine malformations, fibroids, scars, etc., their chances of developing placenta previa will increase. In addition, pregnant women who are prolific and have a history of placenta previa in the past have a significantly increased risk of developing such conditions.
