Ovarian Hypofunction

Ovarian hypofunction is a hormonal disorder which reduces the function of the ovaries. In addition, it also results in decreased production of hormones that make women difficult to become pregnant. The condition is mainly caused by excess insulin, inflammation, genes, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. Some symptoms of ovarian hypofunction include irregular menstruation, heavy bleeding, acne, weight gain, baldness, and excessive hair growth. It will lead to complications such as infertility, sleep apnea, endometrial cancer, and metabolic syndrome.

The treatment for this condition is estrogen therapy that ultimately helps to relieve menstrual symptoms and bone loss. However, it doesn’t increase the chances of pregnancy in women.

Pelvic Inflammatory Disease

Pelvic inflammatory disease is a condition which leads to the inflammation of ovaries, fallopian tube, or uterus. Gynaecological operations, repeated miscarriages, and repeated abortions are some factors which influence the condition to a large extent. The symptoms of the disorder include irregular menstrual bleeding, fever, lower abdominal pain, vaginal discharge with foul-smelling, and painful intercourse.

The treatment for PID depends on the symptoms and conditions. In most cases, doctors will recommend anti-biotic and anti-inflammatory drugs for nearly 3 weeks.

Placenta Praevia

Placenta Praevia is a common problem that occurs in women during pregnancy. It is a condition which leads to the growth of the placenta in the lowest part of the womb. There are three types of placenta praevia that can affect a woman in various ways. The causes of the condition include multiple pregnancies, previous pregnancies, and abnormally shaped uterus, which leads to sudden bleeding.

The treatment for the condition includes blood transfusions, steroid shots, and medicines based on the type and pregnancy stage.

Preeclampsia

Preeclampsia is a condition which leads to increased blood pressure and protein in the urine during pregnancy that usually occurs after the 20th week. It will damage the kidney, liver, maternal endothelium, and other parts, causing potential threats. Some of the symptoms caused by the condition include blurred vision, irritability, sudden weight gain, decreased urine output, etc. Autoimmune disorders, obesity, diabetes, genes, diet, and multiple pregnancies are some factors which cause the condition.

The treatment for the condition is delivering the baby as soon as possible to avoid the risks of a mother.

Why Is Regular Treatment During Pregnancy Important?

Women should undergo regular treatment during pregnancy that will provide advantages to both mother and baby. Prenatal care is necessary for a pregnant woman to deal with any problems with ease.

It includes good nutrition and health habits meant for a pregnant woman. In fact, prenatal care mainly aims to study the development of a baby with routine tests and to prevent possible problems. A prenatal care provider will offer delivery and postpartum services to a woman when she is going to get pregnant.

At the same time, the number of visits and exams may vary depending on the pregnancy stage. For example, a pregnant woman will undergo normal check-ups during first-trimester care. Similarly, doctors will organize different types of tests during the second and third-trimester care.

A prenatal care provider will offer the following services to pregnant women.

• Ultrasound tests for evaluating the growth of a baby
• Glucose tests to detect gestational diabetes
• Blood tests to determine the DNA in the mother’s blood
• Tests for sexually transmitted diseases (STD)
• Fetal echocardiography to test the baby’s heart
• Amniocentesis to analyze genetic problems and birth defects

Pregnant women should consider visiting a prenatal care provider every 4 weeks for the first 28 weeks, every 2 weeks until 36 weeks, and once a week until the delivery of a baby.

How Can A Doctor Help Prevent Pregnancy Complications?

A pregnant woman may face some common complications such as gestational diabetes, vaginal bleeding, early labor, high blood pressure, morning sickness, placenta problems, backaches, and leg pain.
