Embryonic abortment refers to the cessation of fetal development in the first trimester of pregnancy due to some reason. Most embryos occur within 12 weeks of pregnancy, which is a common and frequent disease in obstetrics and gynecology. Embryo suspension is a stage of miscarriage, and pregnancy outcomes are usually a residual miscarriage and incomplete miscarriage. Patients present with a loss of early pregnancy reactions and a small amount of vaginal bleeding. Some patients do not have any clinical manifestations, but are found on ultrasound. So why does embryo prodigy occur? How is it treated? On some issues related to the cessation of fetal embryos, let's listen to what experts say.
Causes of embryonic abortion
The causes of embryonic cessation are complex and diverse, mainly related to embryonic factors, maternal factors, paternal factors, and environmental factors. In addition, about 50% of patients have embryonic abortation for unknown reasons.
01. Embryonic factors
Chromosomal abnormalities in embryos are the main cause of embryos stopping development. The most common chromosomal abnormalities are trisomy 13, 6, 18, 21, or 22.
02, maternal factors
(1) Infection: Infection accounts for 15% to 30% of embryo closure, and the common pathogen is TORCH infection. TORCH refers to a group of pathogenic bacteria, including Toxoplasma gondii (TOX), rubella virus (RV), cytomegalovirus (CMV), herpes simplex virus (HSV), and other microorganisms (such as coxsackievirus, treponema pallidum, etc.), which infect embryos and cause embryos to stop breeding.
(2) Immune factors: mainly including the mother's autoimmune status, blood type (Rh negative) and so on.
(3) Systemic diseases: if the mother has uncontrolled diabetes, chronic hypertension and chronic nephritis, etc., it can lead to abnormal embryonic development.
(4) Genital developmental deformities and lesions: abnormal uterine development or deformities, uterine cavity adhesions, etc. can affect embryonic development and lead to embryonic infertility.
(5) Endocrine abnormalities: common endocrine dysfunction include luteal insufficiency, thyroid dysfunction, polycystic ovary syndrome and hyperprolactinemia.
(6) Bad living habits: drinking, smoking, drug use, coffee drinking, passive smoking, etc. can affect the early development of the embryo.
03, the father factor
Decreased sperm quality in males, increased rates of sperm apoptosis (spontaneous and orderly death of cells) and the occurrence of embryonic infertility are also correlated.
04. Environmental factors
X-rays, air pollution, and heavy metals, organic solvents, chemicals, and home décor contamination may cause embryos to stop sterilizing.
Symptoms of embryonic abortion
Most pregnant women do not have obvious specific discomfort, some show breast tenderness and reduced gastrointestinal discomfort, and some pregnant women may experience small vaginal bleeding.
How is embryotic cessation treated?
Once the embryo is discontinued and promptly processed, the doctor will choose the appropriate method to terminate the pregnancy while ensuring the safety of the pregnant woman. There are mainly medical abortions and curettage. In order to clarify the cause of fetal cessation, the doctor will recommend that the pregnancy tissue be sent for examination, and if possible, the embryo chromosome is examined, and the repeated embryonic cessation and chromosomal abnormalities should be recommended for both husband and wife to undergo chromosomal testing.
6 tricks to teach you to prevent embryonic abortation
1. Plan your pregnancy at the age of optimal fertility;
2. Develop good and healthy living habits, insist on exercising, do not smoke, drink less alcohol, and do not contact drugs;
3. Stay away from unclean sex and avoid infection of the reproductive system;
4. Women of childbearing age should actively do a good job in birth control and contraception, and try to avoid the occurrence of various types of miscarriages;
5. Conduct pre-pregnancy examination, and conduct pregnancy examination regularly during pregnancy;
6. Patients with chronic diseases need to be active, and then get pregnant after the disease is controlled.
