Ten things to be careful of when having a healthy uterus

The uterus is not only an organ that nurtures the fetus, but also a very important endocrine organ. It secretes a variety of hormones to maintain the stability of female endocrine system. For women with a healthy uterus, the level of estrogen in their bodies affects their intellectual status throughout their lives and can determine when they enter menopause.

1. Fear of multiple pregnancies

According to a survey, the possibility of uterine disease and harm increases significantly if the pregnancy occurs more than three times.

2. Fear of repeated abortion

A woman should not have more than three miscarriages in her lifetime, and no more than two miscarriages in a year.

Repeated artificial abortions in a short period of time are an important factor leading to uterine injury. Usually doctors cannot see the uterine cavity when performing an abortion, so it is a "blind operation." There are often a few cases where the uterus is damaged or even perforated because the position and size of the uterus are not clearly checked before the operation, the direction of instrument entry during the operation is inconsistent with the curvature of the uterus, or excessive force is used. Or it may cause uterine infection, cervical or uterine adhesions, leading to secondary infertility.

In short, abortion has many disadvantages and may even lead to "abortion syndrome".

3. Fear of having abortion without permission

The serious consequence of doing so is that many people may suffer from uterine damage or secondary infection.

4. Fear of neglecting prenatal check-ups

Neglecting prenatal examinations and failing to promptly detect abnormalities in the pregnant woman and fetus can lead to serious consequences such as difficult labor and even uterine rupture.

The benefits of antenatal care are:

(1) Understand the fetal development and maternal changes, and seek early treatment if any abnormalities are found.

(2) Through comprehensive and systematic observation, the treatment approach during delivery can be determined to ensure safe delivery.

5. Fear of deformed or multiple births

Since malformations and multiple births are prone to dystocia, which can endanger the safety of the uterus, careful examinations should be conducted during pregnancy. If malformations or multiple births are found, effective measures should be taken.

6. Fear of abuse of labor-inducing drugs

Rupture of the uterine body or lower segment during pregnancy or labor is called uterine rupture. Uterine rupture is one of the serious obstetric complications and often causes maternal and fetal death. It is mostly caused by abnormalities of the birth canal, fetus, and fetal position, such as bony birth canal stenosis, macrosomia, hydrocephalus, neglected transverse position, etc., which lead to obstruction of the descent of the fetal presenting part and strong contraction of the uterus.

Uterine rupture is one of the most serious complications in obstetrics.

7. Fear of irregular delivery

A few backward areas still use the old method of delivery, which seriously threatens the lives of mothers and fetuses.

8. Fear of sexual intercourse during pregnancy

Sexual intercourse should be avoided during the first three months of pregnancy; you should also pay attention to bacterial infections caused by sexual intercourse in early pregnancy; sexual intercourse should also be avoided during the last three months of pregnancy; pregnant women who have had spontaneous abortions and habitual abortions should avoid sexual intercourse throughout the pregnancy and never cause permanent regret for a momentary impulse. In short, you should be careful about your sexual life during special periods.

9. Fear of unclean sex life

If sexual intercourse is not hygienic, pathogens can enter the uterine cavity through the vagina and cause endometrial infection. In addition, the stimulation of the cervix by male smegma is one of the factors causing uterine cancer.

There are many pathogenic bacteria and viruses in the male smegma (especially the human papillomavirus that causes genital warts). If they repeatedly and prematurely and excessively stimulate the lower reproductive tract and cervical epithelium of young women, it will lead to chronic cervicitis and eventually transform into cervical cancer.

10. Fear of sexual disorder

If women indulge in sexual life or start sexual life before they reach adulthood, it will cause harm to their physical and mental health and may lead to diseases such as cervical erosion and cervical cancer.
