In the early stages of pregnancy, during prenatal check ups, the pregnant woman is informed that the embryo is developing slowly and has not yet reached the standard number of weeks. If this continues, the fetus is likely to be unable to be retained, so the pregnant woman is very worried and wants to find the specific cause and solve it properly. So, what are the reasons for slow embryonic development in early pregnancy?
Early pregnancy embryo development is slow, which may be due to malnutrition in the pregnant mother. Some pregnant mothers are picky eaters or have insufficient nutrition in their daily diet, which cannot absorb enough nutrients and naturally cannot provide sufficient nutrition to the embryo. Therefore, embryo development will be much delayed.
However, slow embryonic development may also be due to other reasons. If there are congenital abnormalities in the embryo, such as one parent having abnormal DNA; Having multiple or twin pregnancies, they compete for nutrients and do not have sufficient nutrition like singleton embryos; During pregnancy, infected with a virus that affects embryonic development; The mother itself has heart or other diseases, which cannot provide sufficient nutrition for the embryo.
To understand the reasons for slow embryonic development in early pregnancy, further examination is needed to determine. If it is indeed a problem of delayed embryonic development, pregnant women need to undergo careful follow-up examinations and pay more attention to their personal dietary nutrition. They should try to eat more nutritious food and observe for a period of time to see if there is any improvement. If it is due to a disease, it is necessary to consider whether to keep the fetus.
