Special attention before and after pregnancy

Special attention before and after pregnancy 28-year-old Xiao Li came to the gynecology department of the Chinese medicine hospital to the doctor to consult: “Doctor, I have been married for more than 2 years, and now I am ready to have a BB, is it necessary to do some tests, or first use traditional Chinese medicine to regulate the body, and so on after a period of time to have a child?” It turns out that Xiaoli has a “baby-making plan”, but because of their own body is relatively weak, some friends advised her to do some necessary tests, take Chinese medicine to regulate for a while may be BB will be healthier, less prone to miscarriage. However, Xiao Li did not know if this is really necessary, so she came to the hospital to ask the doctor for advice. As a matter of fact, as a modern woman, what are the things we should not ignore before and after pregnancy? I’m afraid not everyone is very clear. First, plan to “make a man”, what do we have to do? 1, adjust the lifestyle: appropriate regular exercise; maintain a good psychological, mental and happy, is conducive to the health of women themselves and the health of the next generation. Husband in preparation for pregnancy alcohol abuse prone to teratogenesis, such as “fetal alcohol syndrome”. Therefore, the couple should quit smoking and drinking before pregnancy. 2, do a comprehensive physical examination, timely detection and treatment of chronic diseases, infectious diseases before pregnancy can prevent some birth defects. Pre-pregnancy should also look at the dentist, timely detection and treatment of dental diseases, so as not to lead to post-pregnancy medication and treatment difficulties; the husband should also do a semen examination semen, found abnormalities timely treatment, to reduce due to semen quality problems caused by miscarriage; 3, to develop a reasonable dietary habits; do not eat, pre-pregnancy and pregnancy nutrition should be rich, balanced and comprehensive. (Examples of dietary formulas: a daily egg, a bowl of milk, a catty of vegetables or fruits, a hundred grams of fish or meat, a catty of staple food, that is, “5 one”), appropriate supplementation of a variety of vitamins and trace elements, and appropriate weight control. 4. Necessary pre-pregnancy eugenics health checkups should be conducted. At the same time, 3 months before pregnancy to start supplementing folic acid, to prevent the occurrence of neural tube malformation. Rubella vaccination 3 months before pregnancy to prevent congenital rubella syndrome. What does the pre-pregnancy eugenic health checkup look for? First of all, some couples do not make premarital examination before marriage, can improve the couple’s genetic pathology examination to prevent the occurrence of genetic diseases. In addition, attention should be paid to the exclusion of genitourinary tract infections, which can be transmitted to the fetus through the placenta or the birth canal during labor and delivery, leading to miscarriage and premature birth. Prevention and exclusion of viral infections (e.g. rubella, herpes, measles, influenza, cytomegalovirus, etc.) and toxoplasmic infections can lead to fetal malformations, especially in early pregnancy. Any infection found should be treated promptly and the pregnancy should be suitable only after it is cured. If it is the age of the first time to prepare for pregnancy, women should also check the function of the ovaries, thyroid function, etc. to prepare for conception. When is the best time to conceive? 1, the best age of childbearing: the best age of childbearing for women is 24-29 years old, late childbearing is not later than 35 years old; men are generally considered to be no older than 40 years old. 2, the best season for conception: the best season for conception is August and September each year, so that early pregnancy can avoid the winter and spring of viral infectious diseases, delivery is in the mild climate of late spring and early summer, is conducive to eugenics, mother and child health care. 3, the best time to conceive: from the sense of eugenics, the newlyweds because of the wedding ceremony running around, and even exhausted, in a short period of time is difficult to recover to a good state; newlywed celebrations in the tobacco and alcohol is a sperm killer; honeymoon journey can not be ignored in the health problems, etc., these are unfavorable factors of pregnancy, so it is best to contraceptives during the newlywed period. It is only appropriate to get pregnant six months after a pathological abortion and three months after an artificial abortion. Oral contraceptives should generally be discontinued for 3 months before pregnancy. If it is due to gynecological diseases and the application of new short-acting contraceptive treatment can be in accordance with the instructions of the doctor, or after stopping the drug can prepare for pregnancy. Fourth, the pre-pregnancy Chinese medicine is necessary? If you feel good about yourself before pregnancy, and the pre-pregnancy eugenics health checkup found no abnormalities. Can let nature take its course without too much drug intervention. However, as a modern woman to bear a lot of work, life pressure, many people are in a “sub-health” state. Although these women in the hospital to do all kinds of examination found that everything is normal. But they feel unhealthy, such as: frequent back pain, dizziness, headache, irritability, fear of cold and wind, easy to fatigue, dietary disorders and other symptoms. If these symptoms exist, it means that there is already a dysfunction of yin and yang, qi and blood, and the five viscera and six bowels of the body, and it is necessary to carry out the necessary TCM diagnostic adjustments to facilitate a smooth pregnancy and the normal development of the embryo after pregnancy. Generally speaking, it is possible to prepare for pregnancy while adjusting, and for pre-pregnancy physical conditioning, gynecologists in Chinese medicine hospitals will take care of both the mother and the fetus in the use of medicines, so there is no need to worry too much about the impact on the fetus. According to Chinese medicine theory, most women of childbearing age are infertile due to the dysfunction of the liver, spleen and kidney, or the fetus is restless after pregnancy, therefore, the general management of the body is based on nourishing the kidney, strengthening the spleen, nourishing the liver and nourishing the blood, and regulating the menstruation to help the baby to conceive. V. Is my baby safe? 1, on the question of post-pregnancy ultrasound, X-ray, MRI from the ACOG (American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists) information that: 1, ultrasound: there is no evidence of an effect on the fetus. 2, X-ray film: a single film generally does not cause damage to the fetus, exposure to a dose of less than 5 rads does not increase the number of fetal malformations and miscarriages. The number of examinations required for fetal absorption of 5 rads: chest X-ray (front and side) 71429 times, chest CT (10 layers) >50 times, abdominal (multifaceted) X-ray 20 times, mammography 250 times, abdominal and lumbar spine CT once each, barium meal 833 times, barium enema once. 3, nuclear magnetic resonance: the British National Radiological Protection Agency is clearly opposed to the use of early pregnancy. According to ACOG guidelines: X-ray exposure during pregnancy is not an indication for abortion, try to avoid non-emergency X-ray examination from 2 to 20 weeks after fertilization, but if it is related to urgent diagnosis and treatment, it should be examined. 2, on the use of drugs during pregnancy Pregnant women with illnesses should be actively treated in a timely manner, but should be under the guidance of a specialist, strict selection of safe drugs, especially to avoid the use of drugs that have been medically proven to be teratogenic to the fetus. Generally speaking, from the day of fertilization to 14 days after fertilization within the use of drugs is relatively safe, the application of drugs at this time will either lead to miscarriage or due to the embryo or the cell mass can be repaired on their own, more than this time to use the drug, whether it will have an impact as well as the impact of the size of the drug and the use of the age of the fetus to be determined according to the nature of the drug and the use of the time. 3, about daily life care pregnant women should try not to contact with harmful toxic substances (such as mercury, lead, carbon monoxide, pesticides, paint, newly renovated rooms, etc.). Pregnant women need to quit smoking and alcohol, pregnant women smoking can lead to miscarriage, preterm delivery, pregnancy hypertension, the incidence of 3-4 times, so pregnant women do not smoke or avoid smoking “second-hand smoke”, smoking husbands have a greater responsibility not to create a “second-hand smoke” environment around their pregnant wives. “The use of alcohol during pregnancy can lead to teratogenesis, such as “fetal alcohol syndrome”. Pregnant women should beware of viral infections (such as rubella, herpes, measles, influenza, cytomegalovirus, etc.), toxoplasmosis infection can lead to fetal malformations, especially in early pregnancy. Pregnant women should minimize their visits to public places and pay attention to the prevention of colds. At the same time, they should also abstain from sex, live a regular life, ensure adequate sleep, moderate exercise and work .
