Pre-eclampsia
Pre-eclampsia is a serious pregnancy condition that causes high blood pressure and changes in other organs. It happens to about 3 to 4 percent of pregnant women, mostly in the third trimester and at term (after 37 weeks).
In severe cases, it can also cause seizures that may lead to coma or death. These seizures can also affect the baby.
Severe pre-eclampsia can be diagnosed by a doctor with a physical exam and blood tests. These tests show that your blood pressure is more than 140/90 millimeters of mercury and you have high protein in your urine.
It’s important to find out about your condition quickly so you can get treatment before the symptoms get worse. This can help you and your baby stay healthy.
You’ll be referred to a hospital specialist for more tests. You’ll be monitored closely until it’s safe for your baby to be born.
Rh incompatibility
Rh incompatibility occurs when the blood type of a pregnant woman and her unborn baby differ. This problem is almost completely preventable, thanks to the use of special immune globulins.
Most women are screened for Rh incompatibility at the first visit to their doctors. This testing determines their blood types and whether they have Rh antibodies or other antigens on their red blood cells.
Then, if the mother is Rh-negative and the father of her unborn child is Rh-positive, she receives injections of Rh immunoglobulin (Rh Ig). This treatment prevents future Rh incompatibility problems.
This condition is rare, but can lead to serious medical problems for the baby. In severe cases, a fetus can develop hemolytic anemia. This type of anemia destroys the baby’s red blood cells and can result in bleeding, a low white blood cell count, or other medical complications.
Multiple co-morbid conditions
When a pregnant woman has multiple co-morbid conditions, it can cause problems with her pregnancy and birth. It can also make her feel stressed out and anxious.
Pregnancy is a very special time, but there are many risks involved. Some of the complications can be serious, such as preeclampsia (high blood pressure) and fetal growth restriction.
These are common in women who have medical problems, such as high blood pressure, obesity, diabetes, thyroid disease, heart or blood disorders or epilepsy. Other risk factors include advanced maternal age, smoking and drinking alcohol.
A large study found that the presence of multiple chronic conditions increases the risk of poor obstetric outcomes. Moreover, these conditions are associated with increased risks of infections, including HIV and syphilis. It is important to optimize early detection of comorbidities. This can help prevent adverse obstetric outcomes. It will also allow for better treatment and management.
Abortion
Abortion is a health intervention that can save a pregnant woman’s life and her child’s. It is safe when carried out using a method recommended by WHO, appropriate to the pregnancy duration and by someone who has the necessary skills.
Abortions can also improve a woman’s quality of life throughout her reproductive and post-pregnancy life. However, the lack of access to abortion services and discrimination against women based on their reproductive decisions violates human rights.
There are many types of abortion procedures, including aspiration, dilation and evacuation (D&E) and induction abortions. The most common procedure is aspiration, which uses suction or a tool called a curet to remove the fetus.
