From the interviews of fetal protection experts and clinicians, it is known that the number of people who have stopped having a fetus is increasing every year, which in turn affects the birth rate in the mainland, so pregnant mothers who have had fetal stoppage need to understand some knowledge about fetal cessation in advance to avoid fetal stoppage again in the next pregnancy. So, what are the common things about fetal cessation?
1. What is fetal stoppage?
Fetal cessation refers to the cessation of development of embryos in the first trimester of pregnancy for some reason. Ultrasound B-examination presents as fetal buds or fetal morphology in the gestational sac, no fetal heartbeat, or withering of the gestational sac.
Second, what are the causes of fetal arrest?
1. Uterine abnormalities
Uterine abnormalities are also one of the important factors leading to fetal arrest, such as thin endometrium, thick endometrium, uterine cavity adhesions, uterine fibroids, endometriosis, unicorn uterus, double uterus, septum uterus and bicorne uterus.
2. Endocrine disorders
Early embryonic development and three important hormone levels coordinate with each other, one is estrogen, one is progesterone, and the other is human chorionic gonadotropin. When the endocrine system is abnormal, the mother's own endogenous hormones are insufficient, which cannot meet the needs of the embryo, which may cause the embryo to stop breeding and miscarry.
3. Chromosomal abnormalities
Chromosomal abnormalities are also one of the important factors leading to fetal cessation. Chromosomal abnormalities include quantitative and structural abnormalities, which can be divided into aneuploidy and polyploidy, and the most common abnormal karyotype is aneuploidy trisomy. The translocation of chromosomal balance on one of the spouses can easily lead to chromosomal abnormalities in the embryo and cause the embryo to stop breeding. Therefore, couples with abnormal chromosomal abnormalities need to pay attention to choosing the method of fertility, such as the occurrence of 2 fetal cessations, it is recommended to choose the third generation of IVF technology to help fertility.
4. Genital tract infection
When the mother is infected, the pathogen can exercise the placental infection through the blood, causing damage to the chorionic and capillary endothelium, destroying the placental barrier, and the pathogen entering the fetus, resulting in miscarriage, embryo stop development and fetal malformations.
5. Immune factors
Embryo closure due to immune factors is relatively rare and cannot be definitively diagnosed.
6. Abnormal sperm
Abnormal sperm carrying genetic material is also likely to lead to embryo closure, such as high DNA fragmentation rate is one of the important factors leading to fetal infertility.
7. Environmental factors
Changes in the physiological state of pregnancy, so that the mother to the therapeutic drugs and a variety of environmental harmful substances absorption, distribution and excretion has a large change, in the early stage of development, the embryo on the therapeutic drugs and environmental factors of the impact is extremely sensitive, at this time a variety of harmful factors can lead to the damage of the embryo, or even loss.
Third, how to avoid fetal arrest?
1. Do a good job of pre-pregnancy examination
Pre-pregnancy testing can reduce the occurrence of fetal arrest. Because the pre-pregnancy examination can find chromosomal abnormalities or other indicators of the body, so that you can adjust or treat in time, and then choose the appropriate way of pregnancy.
2. Develop good living habits
Whether before or during pregnancy, we need to develop good living habits, eat a reasonable diet, exercise in moderation, maintain adequate sleep, and then improve our physique, which can also reduce the occurrence of fetal cessation.
3. Regular obstetric examination
Regular obstetric examination can also reduce the probability of fetal cessation, because the embryo usually appears in the fetal heartbeat when the development is about 8 weeks, and at this stage it is very easy to have fetal stoppage problems, therefore, we must regularly do a good job of obstetric examination, when the indicators are abnormal, we need to find relevant experts in time to protect the fetus.
4. Half a year after fetal arrest, prepare for pregnancy
It is recommended to re-conceive after six months after fetal arrest. Because women who have had fetal cessation, from the perspective of eugenics, must be pregnant at least for more than half a year, because the recovery of human ovarian function takes at least two or three months, and the recovery of the uterine lining takes at least half a year.
5. Maintain a pleasant mood
In normal times, we need to maintain a pleasant mood and avoid anxiety, because anxiety can lead to endocrine abnormalities, which in turn affect the development of the embryo.
Iberian Baomei warm tips: there are many reasons that lead to fetal cessation, such as chromosomal abnormalities, immune factors, maternal infections, luteal insufficiency, and the man's sperm malformation rate or DNA fragmentation rate is high, which will lead to fetal cessation, and many times may be caused by a variety of factors, therefore, when fetal stoppage occurs, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital to do relevant examinations to prevent fetal cessation after the next pregnancy.
