Some pregnant mothers will encounter [fetal arrest] during pregnancy. The so-called [fetal arrest] means that the embryo suddenly stops and continues to develop.
If such a thing happens, expectant mothers will definitely be sad to death and will think [why me? ], even fall into deep remorse, feel that it must be something wrong, will lead to this result.
So, can fetal abortion be avoided? How to prevent it?
Today, please invite Dr. Tian Tai to talk about this topic with us.
What happened to his wife and best friend,
One of my wife’s girlfriends was pregnant for more than two months. When she spoke to my wife on the phone, she said that her early pregnancy reaction time seemed to be extremely short. It lasted for less than a month and suddenly disappeared two days ago. Now she has no feeling of nausea and feels very comfortable.
Out of caution, I suggested that she have a B-ultrasound examination, and the results showed that the embryo had no heartbeat.
In fact, she suffered from [fetal abortion].
Is what a Fetal Suspension?
The so-called “fetal abortion” is also called “fetal abortion”, “stillbirth” or “stillbirth”. These are all popular expressions.
Fetal suspension actually means that the embryo stops developing with the increase of months after pregnancy.
It may be that there is an empty embryo sac that cannot produce the embryo sac, or that the embryo sac has produced the embryo sac but there has been no fetal heart beat, or that there was fetal heart beat before and then disappeared.
Most cases of fetal abortion are called “missed abortion” in medicine, that is, the abortion has actually occurred (the embryo has stopped developing), but the embryos that have stopped developing have remained in the uterus and have not been discharged.
How did you find the fetus stopped?
In fact, it is more difficult to find the fetus to stop childbirth, because some people’s performance is very similar to threatened abortion, such as a small amount of vaginal bleeding and slight abdominal pain, and many people have no symptoms at all.
In addition, the example at the beginning of the article is to tell everyone that the sudden disappearance of early pregnancy reaction in a short period of time may also be a manifestation of fetal abortion.
How to deal with the occurrence of fetal suspension?
Once the abortion has occurred, it means that the abortion has already occurred and cannot be recovered, but the embryo has not yet been discharged from the uterine cavity, so the next step is to perform curettage.
Therefore, there is no other better plan for what to deal with fetal abortion.
Can fetal abortion be avoided?
Regarding the suspension of fetal childbirth, many people are concerned about two issues:
Why did it happen to me? How to prevent the next pregnancy?
As for the cause of abortion during early pregnancy, the most common is the chromosome abnormality of the embryo itself. More than half of the early abortions are caused by this reason, and even some statistics believe that it accounts for 70%.
Some people say that our husband and wife are both very healthy and there are no genetic diseases in our family. How can we conceive embryos with chromosomal abnormalities?
In fact, there are indeed some couples who may not have taken what medicine, have no contact with radioactive sources, and are not very old, but there is something wrong with the embryo.
Chromosome abnormalities in parents and passed on to the next generation are only one cause of embryo chromosome abnormalities, but they are more likely to be caused by other factors, such as inadvertent exposure to certain drugs, harmful chemicals or ionizing radiation in early pregnancy, which causes mutations in fertilized eggs during division and leads to chromosome abnormalities.
The age of the pregnant woman at the time of pregnancy is also an independent factor. The older the pregnant woman is (especially over 35 years old), the higher the risk of chromosomal abnormalities in the embryo even if she is very careful.
Embryo chromosome abnormalities, in addition to the embryo itself factors, there are also some maternal factors, such as endocrine, immune reasons, infection or reproductive system abnormalities, etc.
Therefore, for naturally occurring [fetal abortion], it is difficult to prevent it because we do not know the specific reason.
One stop will not hinder childbirth.
If there is only one spontaneous abortion, there is no need to be scared when making the next birth plan, because spontaneous abortion cannot be prevented very well.
In the next pregnancy preparation and early pregnancy, it is enough to avoid contact with teratogenic factors as much as possible.
Forget that unpleasant pregnancy experience as an accident. Most people (more than 75%) who have experienced fetal abortion are normal for their next pregnancy.
For example, my wife’s best friend experienced a fetal suspension and then became pregnant normally. Now all the children are in primary school.
