During the first ten months of pregnancy, expectant mothers not only need to protect their own bodies, but also need to go to the hospital for regular prenatal check ups to ensure the health of the pregnant mother and the growth of the fetus. Some pregnant women may feel anxious and at a loss when they discover some abnormalities during prenatal check ups. For example, what is fetal hydronephrosis?
Fetal hydronephrosis refers to hydronephrosis that occurs during fetal development, usually caused by congenital diseases such as developmental disorders and obstruction of the renal pelvis ureteral junction. During pregnancy, fetal hydronephrosis can be detected through ultrasound examination, and it is not recommended to treat hydronephrosis during pregnancy. If bilateral hydronephrosis or renal dysplasia is found during examination, it indicates that the fetus itself has problems and it is generally not recommended to keep the fetus.
If only one side of the kidney has hydronephrosis, while the other side has good kidney function and there are no problems with other organs of the fetus, the baby can be born and treated accordingly after the baby is born. During this period, pregnant women must pay attention to timely follow-up examinations and seek medical treatment promptly if any abnormalities are found.
Pregnant women who find fetal hydronephrosis during prenatal check ups should not be overly nervous, and should receive targeted treatment and adjustment under the guidance of a doctor. Regular follow-up examinations should be conducted, and pregnant women should also pay attention to adjusting their daily routine. They should rest well and not stay up late. They can listen to more music to relieve their anxiety and provide favorable conditions for the healthy growth of the fetus.
