"Less eugenics, a happy life", when I was a child, on the various walls of the rural and urban-rural junctions, we often saw such a slogan, which was just a small brand of the past era.
With the development of aging problems, "fewer births" is not appropriate, but "eugenics" is still an important premise for a family's "happy life".
And if you want to be "eugenic", you have to seriously prepare for pregnancy.
Why? Let's take a look at what risks couples may encounter if they do not seriously prepare for pregnancy.
First, the risks of not doing preconception tests.
Every couple wants their baby to be healthy and healthy. To achieve this, preconception testing is undoubtedly the foundation.
If this link is not done well, pregnant women and babies may face potential risks.
Let's start with Mom. If the mother does not pass the pregnancy test and finds that she has chronic kidney disease and liver disease, then in the process of pregnancy, the burden on the kidneys and liver will increase, resulting in certain complications. Pregnant women do not notice abnormalities in health indicators such as blood pressure, blood lipids, and blood sugar. If the blood glucose control is not good, the pregnant woman is likely to be a premature birth, miscarriage and other adverse results.
For the baby, if the parents have not received a pregnancy test, then potential infectious diseases and genetic diseases are likely to quietly fall on themselves. Imagine how heavy and tragic it would be for a person to be saddled with a certain disease from birth.
The second is the risk of "poor state" of eggs and sperm.
Factors such as sperm quality, egg number, egg motility and other factors will have an impact on the success rate of pregnancy.
However, because of the influence of age, bad living habits and other factors, it is difficult for the sperm and eggs of modern married men and women to be "ready at any time" in a good state, so the possible situation is that the two small families are full of interest and have intercourse continuously, and as a result, they have not seen pregnancy for several years. In this case, the person with the big heart may not pay attention to it, but it is not excluded that two or one person in the couple will have negative emotions, such as anxiety/depression, but they will never look forward to the arrival of new life.
Third, the risks posed by malnutrition.
Whether it is a woman or a man, it is important to maintain a balanced nutrition. Men who are deficient in zinc, arginine, etc. may have insufficient sperm motility. If a woman's body lacks folic acid and vitamin E, she may face negative effects such as miscarriage. If pregnant women are deficient in iodine, it may affect the development of the fetal nervous system and even increase the risk of preterm birth. Men who want to be fathers, if they lack zinc, selenium, arginine and other nutrients, sperm quality may not be guaranteed, resulting in a reduced chance of pregnancy.
Fourth, it does not pay attention to the risks associated with the ovulation period.
The number of ovulations per woman is limited. According to statistics, women release about 400-500 eggs in their lifetime, and after the eggs are excreted, the time to maintain optimal activity is about 12 hours. In addition, women's ovulation period and ovulation day are different, through the calculation of the menstrual cycle, vaginal discharge observation method, B ultrasound detection, ovulation test strip method, etc. can actually infer the ovulation date to varying degrees. However, if you ignore the ovulation law and look at the mood of the same room, it is likely to "perfectly" avoid the ovulation day, which is not only a waste of high-quality eggs, but also not easy to successfully conceive.
In short, pregnancy preparation is a technical job, and it is necessary to prepare carefully in different links, so that it can bring a healthy baby with a high probability, more than the mother, and can also avoid some risks. So, don't take it lightly.
