Toxoplasma gondii infection is a common parasitic disease. Humans who suffer from Toxoplasma gondii are mostly infected after consuming unhygienic animal meat or having close contact with mammals such as cats and dogs that carry the parasite. So, what should we do if we contract Toxoplasma gondii before pregnancy?
1. After being infected with Toxoplasma gondii, most normal people do not experience very obvious symptoms, only a small number of reactions such as dizziness and fever. However, if women are found to be infected with Toxoplasma gondii during pre pregnancy examinations, they need timely treatment. It is best to postpone pregnancy and enter the state of preparing for pregnancy after recovery.
2. There are different types of Toxoplasma gondii infection, and some women may have antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii in their bodies. If a positive infection is detected during examination, it will not affect the subsequent pregnancy and can lead to a normal pregnancy. However, if the infection is positive without antibodies, timely treatment is necessary. This depends on the results of the infection test.
3. Some women, who are already in early pregnancy without knowing that they have been infected with Toxoplasma gondii, need to go to the hospital in a timely manner to check the degree of infection. Treatment for Toxoplasma gondii can be targeted at those with normal immune function, those with low immune function, and pregnant women. Timely communication with doctors for targeted treatment plans can avoid further impact on the fetus.
