Answers of a gynecologist to intimate questions

How to treat a disease during pregnancy,sexually transmitted infections, if the infection occurred for the first time in anticipation of the child? Of course, such problems must be treated, because there is a risk that the infection will affect the development of the baby. Therefore, all future mothers take a test for HIV, hepatitis, syphilis, gonorrhea, trichomoniasis, toxoplasmosis, chlamydia infection, herpes, cytomegalovirus, and opportunistic microorganisms - ureaplasmas, mycoplasmas, streptococci, staphylococci, bacteria of the intestinal group. As a rule, therapy begins after 12 or after 16 weeks of pregnancy, depending on the detected microorganisms, their number and the presence or absence of inflammation. Infections caused by bacteria are treated with antibiotics that are safe for expectant mothers. A strategy for the treatment of problems caused by viruses, largely depends on the prescription of the process and the phase of the disease. In some cases, if the infection has simply escalated, special treatment is not carried out, the doctor will only give advice on changes in diet and lifestyle that will strengthen your immunity. What drugs for the treatment of cold future mothers can use without fear? Admissible folk remedies: abundant warm drink with honey, raspberries. It can be mors, milk, warm sparkling water, not strong tea. Obligatory rinsing of the throat (warm water with soda, furatsilinom, weak solutions of other antiseptics), washing the nose ("Aquamaris", JADRAN, weak saline solution). When the temperature rises from 37.5 degrees, you can take a tablet of paracetamol. As for any other drugs, they should not be taken without consulting a doctor. It is very important to stay at home for a while, stay warm, lie down more, to allow the body to recover and not risk the development of complications. What do doctors fear when they speak of low placentation? First of all, this situation is fraught with the development of bleeding. Attached low, the placenta becomes more vulnerable to detachment: with the growth of the uterus in the second trimester of pregnancy in the area of its lower sites, there may be a "detachment" of the placenta from the uterine muscle, which is accompanied by the appearance of bright blood vaginal discharge. Often bleeding begins suddenly, and nothing foreshadows its approach. This situation can provoke sexual contact, physical stress, stress, even an erotic dream. Bleeding due to abruption of the placenta requires treatment in the hospital and, as a rule, it ends safely for the mother and baby, especially as in the majority of cases the placenta rises as the uterus grows and by the 28th week of pregnancy takes the correct position when its lower edge turns above the area of the exit from the uterus more than 6 - 7 cm. If this does not happen by the specified date), the doctor will recommend the future mother to come to the hospital in advance, sometimes even in 35 to 36 weeks of pregnancy, in order to help the woman in time, if the bleeding will begin. I must also say that the birth of a baby in a situation where the placenta reaches the exit from the uterus or blocks it, is possible only with the help of caesarean section. The operation will remove the baby and prevent serious bleeding in the mother.
