What are the risks of anemia during childbirth?

Many women will experience adverse reactions in their bodies after becoming pregnant. For example, anemia is a very common condition among pregnant women. The most common causes of anemia are that the pregnant woman does not take in enough iron or eats some inappropriate foods. Anemia in pregnant women will not only affect her physical health but also be dangerous during childbirth. Here we will introduce the dangers of anemia in pregnant women during childbirth.

If a pregnant woman suffers from severe anemia, it will lead to insufficient oxygen-carrying capacity of red blood cells, causing intrauterine growth retardation of the fetus. During delivery, due to low hemochromatin, postpartum hemorrhage is prone to occur. After delivery, due to low resistance, it is also easy to cause puerperal infection. It is recommended to take blood tonics in the third trimester of pregnancy, along with foods high in iron.

The most common anemia among pregnant women is iron deficiency anemia. The principle of treatment is to supplement iron and correct the cause. 1. Eat more black fungus, kelp, seaweed, pork liver, chicken liver, and can be taken orally 2. Oral iron 3. Intravenous iron 4. Blood transfusion

The most common type of anemia in pregnant women is iron deficiency anemia, so our principle of response is to supplement iron on the one hand and correct the cause on the other.

So generally speaking, when it comes to dietary iron supplements, what kind of foods contain a lot of iron? Generally speaking, black fungus, kelp, seaweed, pork liver or chicken liver are all rich in iron. You can eat more every day. If you experience symptoms such as bloating, stomach discomfort, hiccups, and diarrhea after eating, you can treat the symptoms.

If the condition cannot be corrected through dietary supplements, then medication can be used to correct it. First, you can take oral iron supplements, such as Sulfate. Take one pill with meals, three pills a day. This can effectively increase blood levels. If oral iron supplements are not enough to raise blood levels, we can give intravenous iron supplements, such as intravenous iron dextran or sorbitol iron, which can also effectively correct iron deficiency anemia.

However, there are some patients, for example, those with gastric ulcers or gastritis, whose stomach digestion function is poor. So if oral iron supplements or intravenous injections cannot effectively correct the iron deficiency anemia, we can also give the patients blood transfusions when necessary. Blood transfusions can greatly improve the patient's blood items in the short term. If the patient develops anemia during or after delivery, we must respond proactively.

We can prepare fresh blood for blood transfusion to patients when necessary. During pregnancy, iron supplementation through food, oral iron, or intravenous iron can be more effective in correcting iron deficiency anemia.
