Pregnant women need to pay attention to many issues in order to safely survive the entire pregnancy and give birth to healthy and lovely babies. So, how should pregnant women prevent miscarriage? What are the factors of miscarriage?
What are the factors that cause miscarriage?
1. Medical diseases
A healthy lifestyle, appropriate food, and appropriate weight contribute greatly to the health of infants. If you have some medical illness, you need to control it or accept a prescription to change it to prevent miscarriage or birth defects.
2. Thyroid problems
Whether it is to maintain the health of the mother or the healthy development of the fetus, the thyroid gland plays a crucial role during pregnancy. Thyroid hormone is very important for the normal development of infant brain and nervous system. Hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism may lead to miscarriage.
3、 Not vaccinated
You should receive appropriate vaccines to understand your health status. German measles is a viral infection that can lead to birth defects in early pregnancy. Therefore, you need to be vaccinated in advance to prevent complications.
Exposure to toxic substances
Avoid toxic or harmful substances such as synthetic compounds, metals, fertilizers, pesticides, cat or mouse feces, which may cause miscarriage in small amounts.
5. Beauty products
Cosmetics such as nail polish and lipstick may contain phosphobenzoate, lead and other chemicals, which may affect the growth of the fetus. You need to restrict the use of cosmetics.
6. Eating pickled food
Nutrition has a significant impact on the healthy development of infants. Foods containing pesticides, preservatives, and other chemicals can lead to birth defects, so you should choose foods wisely.
Methods to prevent miscarriage
1、 Rest well and do not overwork
Do not engage in excessive physical labor, especially weight-bearing labor that increases abdominal pressure, such as lifting water or carrying heavy objects.
2、 Preventing Trauma
It is best to wear flat shoes when going out; Try not to travel during pregnancy; Avoid vibration in the working environment; Avoid dangerous climbing movements when doing household chores.
3、 Moderate sexual activity
Abdominal compression and cervical stimulation can induce uterine contractions. In early pregnancy, placental adhesion is unreliable, and uterine contractions can easily lead to miscarriage. Therefore, sexual activity should be prohibited in early pregnancy. Although it is possible to have appropriate sexual activity in the second trimester, the quantity and scope should be less than before pregnancy, and expectant fathers should exercise restraint.
