Of course, the rise in body temperature in each person always has certain reasons. Even during pregnancy, the temperature itself can not rise. One of the reasons the physician distinguishes the reaction of the female body to pregnancy itself, or rather the changes in thermoregulation and hormonal background. The permissible temperature during pregnancy fluctuates within the subfebrile condition and is considered a sign of an unusual and new position of a woman. The temperature can not decrease for a long time, it is not worth worrying about, if other reasons for its appearance are excluded, and it does not exceed 37.8 degrees.
In some cases, pregnancy is accompanied by an inflammatory process in the body, which leads to an increase in temperature. When registering for a woman's consultation, the woman gives a lot of tests, and if there is inflammation, it will be found.
Pregnancy and the common cold
However, most often the temperature during pregnancy is about 38 and above is a symptom of the common cold. In this case, a doctor's consultation is mandatory, which:
- Diagnoses the disease.
- Will prescribe the right medicine.
- Tell you what temperature and what is dangerous in pregnancy.
What is the risk of high fever during pregnancy:
- intoxication of the body with harmful substances, which can disrupt the functioning of the cardiovascular system;
- change in protein synthesis;
- negative influence on the placenta, which often leads to premature birth;
- various disorders in the development of fetal systems and organs.
The temperature during pregnancy 38 is already considered dangerous, because it largely affects the formation of the nervous system of the baby. In those cases when the fever in a pregnant woman has decreased rapidly, it seems that the doctor still needs to see it.
Non-drug treatment
But if the temperature rise in ARI or ARVI is insignificant, it is better to be treated at home, because the hospital during epidemics is not the best place for a pregnant woman. During the carrying out of the child, the best option for restoring health will be non-drug treatment, including copious drinking and wiping with a damp towel.
Immediate drug knockdown is required if:
- body temperature during pregnancy 39;
- the temperature for a long time is not reduced by folk methods;
- the temperature rises, despite attempts to reduce it;
- the fever in a pregnant woman is caused by a sore throat.
Decrease in temperature during pregnancy
The main reasons for the lowered body temperature in pregnant women include:
- toxicosis;
- endocrinological disease;
- weakened immunity.
