The placenta, as an important pregnancy tissue, is crucial for ensuring the healthy and healthy development of the fetus, and its position in the uterus is also related to whether the pregnancy can proceed healthily. Some pregnant women may have placenta previa detected during prenatal check ups. So, what are the effects of placenta previa on the mother's body?
1. Placenta previa mainly refers to the abnormal position of the placenta in women after 28 weeks of pregnancy, which is attached to the lower segment of the uterus, with its lower edge reaching the cervical opening and even completely covering the cervical opening. Its position is lower than the fetal foreskin, and this type of placenta position is called placenta previa.
2. Placing placenta previa on the mother's body poses a significant health risk and often affects pregnancy health. Bleeding with or without abdominal pain in late pregnancy is a common symptom of placenta previa, which is also a serious complication of pregnancy. This condition can lead to prolonged postpartum bleeding in expectant mothers after giving birth to their babies, making them prone to infections during lactation.
3. Placenta previa not only poses a significant threat to the mother's physical health, but also affects the normal development of the fetus, making it easy to have an incorrect fetal position and even inducing premature birth. Therefore, expectant mothers diagnosed with placenta previa through examination should follow the doctor's advice to rest in bed and receive targeted treatment, and may terminate the pregnancy early according to the indications.
