Many people know what amniotic fluid is. Amniotic fluid is a substance in the female uterus that is crucial for fetal survival. If there is insufficient amniotic fluid in the uterus of a woman, there is a possibility of fetal asphyxia. But if there is excessive amniotic fluid, it can also harm the health of the fetus. So women should pay attention to their amniotic fluid condition after pregnancy. So, what should I do if I have low amniotic fluid at 27 weeks of pregnancy?
Women who are 27 weeks pregnant need to go to the hospital to have their amniotic fluid checked. If they find that their amniotic fluid is insufficient, they need to handle it promptly to avoid the risk of fetal asphyxia. To deal with oligohydramnios, women can eat more fruits containing vitamin C, which can supplement the amniotic fluid in the uterus and have a certain therapeutic effect on mild oligohydramnios.
In addition to eating more foods containing vitamin C, women also need to drink more water to increase their amniotic fluid volume. If the oligohydramnios is severe, it is necessary to seek treatment at the hospital and follow the doctor's arrangements. Subcutaneous low molecular weight injections may be needed to promote blood circulation and stimulate an increase in amniotic fluid. Alternatively, a small amount of liquid can be directly injected into the female uterus to stimulate an increase in amniotic fluid.
Women must pay attention to the condition of amniotic fluid during pregnancy, as insufficient amniotic fluid can hinder fetal development. Excessive amniotic fluid is also detrimental to fetal development. If excessive amniotic fluid is found, it is necessary to find ways to increase urine output in order to reduce the amount of amniotic fluid. Alternatively, women can directly extract amniotic fluid from their uterus at the hospital, but this method is more dangerous and women should not blindly perform it.
