What diseases can prevent pregnancy?

Whether or not one can get pregnant is an extremely important thing for people, as it determines whether they can pass on their family line. In order to conceive a healthy baby, both the husband and wife need to have a healthy body. If you have a disease, it will affect the baby's physical health, and some diseases will cause people to be unable to get pregnant. So what diseases will prevent pregnancy? Let's introduce it in detail below.

The following conditions prevent pregnancy:

Hepatitis: Hepatitis viruses can pass through the placental barrier to infect the fetus in utero, causing fetal malnutrition, intrauterine growth retardation, and in severe cases, fetal liver atrophy. Newborns infected with hepatitis B virus will carry the virus for life.

Nephritis: The burden on the kidneys generally increases by more than half after conception. Pregnant women with nephritis are prone to kidney damage due to pregnancy. Drugs used to treat nephritis can cause fetal malformations such as brain hypoplasia and gray baby syndrome.

Heart disease: During pregnancy, water and sodium retention increase the burden on the heart. The patient may suffer from hypoxia due to abnormal heart function. The hypoxic internal environment can induce life-threatening pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome and cause intrauterine fetal death.

Diabetes: Often results in miscarriage or premature birth. Even those who survive to full-term delivery often give birth to "giant babies" and are often accompanied by dystocia. The offspring often have developmental abnormalities in organs such as the brain and heart.

Preparation before pregnancy

1. Physical preparation before pregnancy

People with chronic diseases such as heart disease, hypertension, nephritis, hyperthyroidism, etc. should wait until their condition has stabilized or has been basically cured for a period of time before preparing for pregnancy, so as not to aggravate their condition after pregnancy or have adverse effects on the pregnancy due to the disease. In addition, occupational groups that are exposed to harmful substances should change their jobs appropriately before preparing for pregnancy to avoid adverse effects.

2. Mental preparation before pregnancy

First of all, don’t put too much pressure on yourself. After planning to get pregnant, the couple should not put pressure on themselves or each other. It is not advisable to prepare for pregnancy when the work pressure is high. The ideal time to get pregnant is when you are most relaxed and calm, and the work pressure is the lightest. It is important to prepare for pregnancy mentally!

3. Life preparation before pregnancy

First of all, you need to change your unhealthy lifestyle, such as irregular rest, smoking, drinking, coffee, etc. You need to master the method of calculating the ovulation period and the best time to get pregnant. You cannot use drugs blindly. If you need to take drugs, you should do so under the guidance of a doctor.
