Placenta Low Effects


Healing hearts, one patient at a time.
If the placenta is found to be low during pregnancy, it is generally divided into two situations. Before 28 weeks of pregnancy, the placenta is found to be attached to the lower part of the uterus. This situation is called the low placenta state. Generally, there is no effect. With the increase of gestational weeks, there is the possibility of self-growth. Regular review can be done. If after 28 weeks of pregnancy, the placenta is found to be low, even the lower edge of the placenta is close to or covers the internal opening of the cervix. At this time, it can be called placenta praevia, which can cause uninduced, painless vaginal bleeding in the third trimester of pregnancy. If bleeding is relatively early, it may also cause abortion due to excessive bleeding. After examination, placenta praevia should be treated according to the symptoms of pregnant women to prevent infection. If there are no symptoms, it should be reviewed regularly.
