Although 16 weeks of pregnancy is already past the early stages of pregnancy and fetal development is slightly more stable, pregnant women still need to be cautious in their care to avoid some dangerous situations. Fetal arrest refers to the situation where the fetus stops developing, which is a regrettable result. Some women may experience fetal arrest due to improper care during pregnancy. So, what are the reasons for fetal arrest at 16 weeks?
There are many reasons for fetal arrest at 16 weeks. Some women experience high levels of mental stress during pregnancy and often experience anxiety and unease, which can affect fetal development and lead to fetal arrest. If women are exposed to radiation or toxic chemicals for a long time, it can also cause embryonic arrest or developmental abnormalities.
When women experience fetal arrest, they often have abdominal pain symptoms. Although it is not obvious at the beginning, they will feel unbearable abdominal pain afterwards, and it will become more and more painful. Then there will be irregular bleeding in the vagina, and women's pregnancy reactions will gradually disappear. Moreover, during ultrasound re examination, there is no fetal heartbeat in the uterus.
When women experience symptoms of fetal arrest, they should take it seriously in a timely manner and deal with the situation. In order to avoid fetal arrest in early pregnancy, women should do a physical examination before pregnancy to see if they have gynecological diseases or other safety hazards. During pregnancy, they should also be careful to take care of themselves, avoid excessive fatigue, pay more attention to rest, and supplement sufficient nutrients.
