What is the reason for high red blood cell count in pregnant women?

Prenatal check-ups are required after pregnancy. Different testing methods are needed at different times. Routine blood tests and urine tests are required. In routine urine tests, high red blood cell count is a common disease. Let us now understand why pregnant women have high red blood cell counts.

There are many cases of occult blood in urine routine after pregnancy, which is also one of the causes of hematuria in urology. The main reason for hematuria in pregnant women is slight damage to the ureter caused by the enlarged uterus squeezing the ureter after pregnancy. But as long as the bleeding is not too much, no treatment is needed, and there is no good treatment. However, if the bleeding is severe, hemostatic drugs are needed, and sometimes termination of pregnancy is required.

First of all, if occult blood is detected in urine during routine urine examination, we should first consider whether it is caused by kidney disease and hemorrhagic disease, and then further perform renal function tests. If the urine protein is negative, it is generally believed that occult blood may not be obvious in lower urinary tract bleeding because red blood cells are not destroyed. Therefore, don’t keep worrying about understanding what occult blood in urine is. What we need to do is to get timely treatment.

Renal occult hematuria refers to occult hematuria originating from the glomeruli. Clinically, it manifests as simple occult hematuria or occult hematuria with proteinuria, which is more common in patients with urinary tract infections. If the treatment is not thorough, the disease recurs or is misdiagnosed or missed, the condition cannot be effectively controlled and will eventually lead to uremia. Experts point out that it is necessary to eliminate the causes of renal hematuria, because long-term lesions of the glomerular basement membrane can also lead to glomerular sclerosis, causing kidney damage. Renal hematuria and occult blood must be treated in a regular hospital as soon as possible.

The above is the explanation about the high red blood cell count in pregnant women. The red blood cell count needs to be maintained within a certain value. Too high or too low will not be of much benefit to the pregnant woman's body. When doing urine routine and blood routine tests, you can easily see the red blood cell count. If a pregnant woman bleeds, it is likely caused by high red blood cell counts. Therefore, high red blood cell counts must be taken seriously enough to avoid various complications in the future.
