Uterine height refers to the distance from the midpoint of the upper edge of the pubic symphysis to the highest point of the fundus of the uterus. It reflects the longitudinal diameter of the uterus and is measured in centimeters. Uterine height and abdominal circumference can indirectly reflect the size of the uterus. As pregnancy progresses, the uterus enlarges to accommodate the development of the fetus. By measuring the uterine height and abdominal circumference, you can preliminarily determine the gestational age, indirectly understand the fetal growth and development, and estimate the fetal weight. Measuring uterine height and abdominal circumference during each prenatal check-up helps to dynamically observe fetal development and promptly detect pregnancy abnormalities such as intrauterine growth retardation, macrosomia, or polyhydramnios, which may be corrected through timely treatment.
