The heart is one of the important organs of the human body. If a person's heart has lesions or abnormalities, it needs to be treated through surgery and other means. Some women may have surgery due to atrial septal defect and become pregnant after surgery. What should women pay attention to?
Firstly, women who become pregnant after atrial septal defect surgery need to closely monitor their heart condition and fetal development. Patients with atrial septal defect may still experience postoperative complications such as arrhythmia after surgical repair. After pregnancy, the burden on the heart increases, so women need to pay attention to the condition of their heart and fetal development, and whether their heart can tolerate it.
Secondly, women should pay attention to supplementing nutrition in moderation after pregnancy. After pregnancy, women need to increase their nutrient intake in order to provide sufficient nutrients for the fetus to grow and develop. However, it is recommended that women do not blindly consume energy, as excessive intake of energy may lead to overnutrition and weight gain, which can also increase the burden on their heart.
Women not only become pregnant after undergoing atrial septal defect surgery, but it is recommended that they explain their condition clearly to the doctor. Explain your situation clearly to the doctor. Firstly, if a woman has a need for medication, the doctor will adjust the use of medication based on her physical condition. Secondly, the doctor can also consider the situations that women may encounter during pregnancy more comprehensively and intervene early for prevention.
