Pregnancy is a part of every woman's experience. From before pregnancy to during pregnancy, you need to undergo various examinations. During pregnancy checkups, pregnant women will generally see hemoglobin test values on the test results. So what should you do if your hemoglobin is low? Generally speaking, it can be adjusted through diet, sleep and exercise. It can also be treated without affecting the fetus. What is the normal value of hemoglobin for pregnant women? If the hemoglobin content of adult women is lower than 110g/l, it is considered anemia. The normal hemoglobin value after pregnancy is between 100-160g/l, but it is usually normal for pregnant women if it is not too low. During pregnancy, in order to give birth to a child, the blood volume of pregnant women will increase. It is normal for the average hemoglobin content to decrease slightly per liter. However, if a pregnant woman has symptoms such as pale face, blackouts, dizziness, etc., you have to be alert, as this may be a sign of anemia. It is important to note that most women do not have adequate iron stores at the start of pregnancy. However, in the second and third trimesters, anemia with low hemoglobin is likely to occur. The demand for iron during pregnancy is higher. If the pregnant woman's hemoglobin is lower than 100g/l, it indicates iron deficiency anemia and the iron intake needs to be increased. The iron absorption rate in the diet is relatively low. In addition to increasing iron through dietary supplements to improve anemia, you can consider iron supplements to increase iron production and blood and increase nutrition. After one month, the hemoglobin level will increase significantly and the anemia will be relieved and improved. Regardless of whether your hemoglobin is too low during pregnancy, you should pay more attention to your diet and supplement iron by eating foods rich in iron ions such as animal kidneys, pig liver, pig blood, lean meat, egg yolks, kelp, black sesame seeds, sesame paste, black fungus, soybeans, mushrooms, etc. In addition to directly supplementing iron, you can also eat more foods rich in high-quality protein, such as eggs, milk, fish, lean meat and other foods. You can also eat more foods rich in vitamin C, such as sour dates, apricots, oranges, hawthorns, tomatoes, bitter gourds, etc. This is mainly because vitamin C participates in hematopoiesis and promotes the absorption and utilization of iron ions. The above is about the normal range of hemoglobin content during pregnancy and the reasons for its decrease. I hope that all mothers can learn a little about this when they are pregnant. If there is a slight decrease, don’t worry too much. Just pay more attention to your diet in normal times. However, if you experience severe anemia symptoms, you should seek medical attention immediately. |
