Membranous placenta is an abnormal placental shape that is relatively rare. Pathologically, membranous placenta can be divided into two types: complete membranous placenta and partial membranous placenta. So, what are the effects of partial membranous placenta?
Partial membranous placenta can affect women's ability to experience vaginal bleeding in late pregnancy, and can also cause placental adhesions and even postpartum bleeding after childbirth. Therefore, the impact of partial membranous placenta on women is still significant. After the occurrence of membranous placenta, women should pay attention to it, as this type of placenta can mostly affect the way women give birth.
Membranous placenta may be due to the abundant blood supply in the decidua during early pregnancy, which causes some smooth chorionic villi that should have atrophied to not atrophie, resulting in the formation of a large and thin placenta around the fertilized egg. Membranous placenta often leads to insufficient nutrient supply and has a negative impact on fetal development.
Women should undergo regular prenatal check ups during pregnancy to detect any abnormalities in the placenta as early as possible and promptly address them. Under ultrasound examination, the membranous placenta appears thicker and contains a lot of blood. When blood flows out, the placenta remains in the uterine cavity, which can easily lead to heavy bleeding. If not handled in a timely manner, it can pose a certain threat to women's lives.
