Malignancy in pregnant women at late stages

This phenomenon, like low-water malnutrition at late stages in pregnant women, is not uncommon. A similar diagnosis is made when the volume of amniotic fluid in the third trimester is less than 1000 ml. Let's take a closer look at the main causes of low-water hydration in later terms, and tell about the consequences that such a state may entail.

Because of what can develop aridity (oligohydramnion)?

Most often, the development of this phenomenon occurs for the following reasons:

  1. Pathological abnormalities in the development of the epithelium, which lining the envelope of the endometrium and directly secrete the amniotic fluid.
  2. Anomalies in the development of the urinary system in the fetus.
  3. Development of bacterial infections during fetal gestation or exacerbation of existing chronic diseases.
  4. Multiple pregnancy.
  5. Overpopulation of pregnancy.
  6. Obesity, metabolic disorders.
  7. Fetoplacental insufficiency.
  8. Rhesus-conflict.

It is worth noting the fact that, most often, low blood pressure in later terms is a consequence of secondary diseases (arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus).

What are the main signs of lack of hydration at a later date?

There are no obvious signs that a pregnant woman can independently establish such a violation does not exist. In some cases, future mothers note weakness, dry mouth, nausea.

The main signs of inadequacy, allowing it to be diagnosed, are the lag of the uterus from the norm corresponding to the period of pregnancy, as well as inconsistency with the norms of the abdominal circumference and limited mobility of the fetus. To confirm the diagnosis, ultrasound is prescribed, with the help of which the amount of amniotic fluid is set.

What can be dangerous for lack of water in the late period?

Having dealt with the causes and manifestations of low salinity, it is necessary to say about what the fetus faces such a violation at a later date.

Thus, on the part of the fetus, low blood pressure leads to a curvature of the spine and the development of intrauterine hypoxia (lack of oxygen). If it is observed for a long period of time, there is an underdevelopment of the brain. This, in turn, often leads to a mental slowdown in the development of the child after birth.

Also expressed malnutrition is dangerous premature birth. In later terms, it leads to a delay or the weakness of labor. In severe cases, fetal death is not excluded.
