What to do if gynecological diseases are serious during pregnancy?

Many women's body resistance decreases after pregnancy. Coupled with poor eating, sleeping and other living habits and lack of attention to private hygiene, they are very prone to gynecological diseases. In addition, many women will experience worsening gynecological diseases during pregnancy. Gynecological diseases during pregnancy are mainly caused by the following four aspects, which require people to pay special attention and treatment. The following is a detailed introduction on what to do if gynecological diseases are serious during pregnancy.

NO.1 Candida infection Candida infection is very common in humid and hot southern regions such as Hunan, and can occur at any stage of pregnancy. Typical symptoms include vulvar itching and pain, accompanied by tofu-like leucorrhea, frequent urination and painful urination. Repeated attacks may lead to serious consequences such as premature rupture of membranes. Treatment: If you find yourself infected with an inflammatory disease, do not take medication on your own. Gynecologists and obstetricians remind that treatment of Candida infection must be started after the twelfth week of pregnancy. At the same time, oral medications may cause fetal malformations, so local vaginal medications are generally used. Pregnant women are also advised to control their diet, exercise more and avoid overdosing, maintain normal blood sugar levels and prevent gestational diabetes. Because once a pregnant woman has diabetes, the glycogen content in the vagina will be higher and the resistance to Candida will be reduced.

NO.2 Genital warts Genital warts are caused by human papillomavirus. Pregnant women are more likely to suffer from genital warts due to high levels of sex hormones and increased vaginal secretions. They often grow rapidly, in large numbers and large in size. If a pregnant woman has genital warts, the disease may be transmitted to her newborn during the delivery process (vertical transmission), leading to laryngeal papilloma in the newborn. Treatment: Genital warts are difficult to control with drugs, and physical treatment methods such as laser, microwave, and freezing are generally used. In addition, cesarean section is generally recommended to avoid infection as much as possible.

NO.3 Chlamydia and Mycoplasma infection The most common invasion site of Mycoplasma and Chlamydia is the cervix. If not treated actively, it is easy to cause adverse consequences such as miscarriage, premature birth, intrauterine infection, etc. Treatment: During pregnancy, the main treatment is oral treatment with azithromycin, roxithromycin and other drugs. Mycoplasma and Chlamydia are mainly transmitted through sexual contact, and a few can be transmitted through hands, eyes, towels, bathtubs, etc. Therefore, experts emphasize that pregnant women must pay attention to personal hygiene and not share towels, toilets and bathtubs with others.

NO.4 Gonorrhea infection Gonorrhea is transmitted through sexual contact. In recent years, its incidence rate ranks first among sexually transmitted diseases in my country. The gonorrhea infection rate among pregnant women in my country is 1% to 8%. Patients often have no symptoms in the early stages, so the incubation period is difficult to determine. Experts from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Armed Police Hospital remind you that if not treated promptly and effectively, it may lead to miscarriage, intrauterine infection, fetal growth restriction, or even stillbirth. Treatment: Gonorrhea is very harmful, and gonorrhea screening during pregnancy is very important. Currently, the main treatment for gonorrhea during pregnancy is third-generation cephalosporins.
