Pregnancy with thrombophilia, consequences
Thrombophilia during pregnancy can negatively affect both the well-being of a woman and the development of the fetus. This is a serious pathology, it is accompanied by a violation of hemostasis, so the blood clots much faster. The disease manifests itself in the form of a high risk of the formation of blood clots of various sizes.
Thrombophilia during pregnancy: consequences of the disease
Blood pathology is genetic and acquired. Hereditary thrombophilia and pregnancy are two almost incompatible conditions. Most often, bearing a child ends in a spontaneous miscarriage.
Pregnancy with thrombophilia is always accompanied by the risk of its premature termination.
Quite often, the disease is diagnosed in a woman during pregnancy. This is due to the physiological increase in blood clotting indicators. It occurs as a result of the formation inside the female body of a third, additional, circle of blood circulation – the placental.
The most serious complication of thrombophilia for a pregnant woman is a miscarriage. After all, blood clotting indicators increase 5 times. The cause of a miscarriage is most often a placental abruption, provoked by problems of the circulatory system. Termination of pregnancy can occur almost immediately after the conception has occurred, and a little later.
In this case, full-term pregnancy with thrombophilia is quite possible. The main condition for bearing a baby is compliance with all the recommendations of a physician. The admissible period for the birth of a child is 35-36 weeks
The negative impact of the disease on the baby begins from about the 10th week of pregnancy and manifests itself in the form of hypoxia. Microthrombi begin to circulate through the vessels of the placenta. They prevent your baby from getting the amount of oxygen and nutrients it needs.
If a woman does not receive adequate treatment, then there is a high likelihood of a delay in the intrauterine development of the fetus, or the fading of pregnancy.
Pregnant women with established thrombophilia are given a regular coagulogram. Treatment is carried out with the introduction of anticoagulants
If the pregnancy persists, then the second trimester occurs without serious complications. But with the onset of the third trimeter, there may be a risk of premature birth.
The attending physician should select and prescribe medications. You can use folk recipes, but you must first consult with your gynecologist.
Prevention of blood clots should be done before conception. A woman is advised to adhere to the principles of a healthy diet, lead an active lifestyle, give up bad habits and control her weight.
