What to do if Toxoplasma gondii is detected during pregnancy

Dads, the happiest thing is that moms are pregnant, but moms have many problems during pregnancy. Some pregnant women found out about Toxoplasma during pregnancy and felt very scared. So some pregnant women want to ask what they should do if they are diagnosed with Toxoplasma during pregnancy? Is there any good way to treat it? More than one or two people have asked this question. So what should you do if Toxoplasma gondii is detected during pregnancy? For this purpose, we specifically asked for the doctors' opinions. Let's take a look at these opinions below.

1: Toxoplasma antibody IgM (+) within three months of pregnancy indicates acute Toxoplasma infection. If congenital infection occurs in the first three months of pregnancy, about 40% of the fetuses may be severely damaged, resulting in miscarriage, stillbirth or neonatal disease, or lesions or deformities of the eyes, brain or liver after birth. It is recommended to have an abortion and timely treatment.

2: Currently recognized effective therapeutic drugs include pyrimethamine, sulfadiazine, spiramycin, clindamycin, etc.

The following issues should be noted in the treatment of toxoplasmosis: (1) Combination therapy is recommended, and the dosage and course of treatment should be standardized. (2) Close attention should be paid to the toxic and side effects of drugs, and pregnant women should be more cautious when using drugs. (3) It is not appropriate to use the “decrease in Toxoplasma IgG antibody titer” as a criterion for evaluating therapeutic efficacy.

3: Toxoplasmosis can be transmitted through the embryo and can be transmitted through the blood. It is recommended that you go to a higher-level hospital for a reexamination. If the result still shows Toxoplasma infection, you should consider artificial abortion.

4. Check up promptly. If there is an infection, treat it symptomatically with anti-infection drugs. Pay attention to avoid worsening of the condition and strengthen nutrition.

After reading the above suggestions given by doctors to pregnant women who were diagnosed with Toxoplasma gondii during pregnancy, I believe everyone should have an idea of ​​what to do if Toxoplasma gondii is found during pregnancy. If Toxoplasmosis is diagnosed during pregnancy, you must go to the hospital for examination and follow the doctor's instructions. Mothers should not be afraid, but should actively cooperate and receive treatment. I hope the above suggestions can help you.
