What are the dangers of threatened abortion?

What harm does threatened abortion bring? Pregnant women are great, but they also need to be cared for, because if you don't pay attention, threatened abortion will occur. There are many reasons for threatened abortion, the main reason is embryo abnormalities caused by genetic factors, so what harm does threatened abortion bring?

1. Minor bleeding: The main harm of threatened abortion is a small amount of vaginal bleeding after pregnancy. Depending on the amount of bleeding and the time it accumulates in the vagina, the color may be bright red, pink or dark brown. It is sometimes accompanied by mild lower abdominal pain, a feeling of falling when the fetus moves, and back pain and abdominal distension.

2. Severe vomiting: Severe vomiting will make you unable to eat and you should go to the hospital for treatment, because severe vomiting during pregnancy can lead to dehydration and electrolyte imbalance, which can endanger the life of the pregnant woman in severe cases. This is also a risk of threatened abortion.

3. Severe blood loss: Sometimes it can cause severe blood loss or even shock, so it should be treated actively. Various measures can be taken at the same time, such as intravenous or intramuscular injection of oxytocin or vasopressin 10U, and efforts should be made to give the patient a blood transfusion. Subsequently, conditions should be actively created for blood transfusion.

4. Infection: All types of abortion can be complicated by infection, which is more common in incomplete abortions. Infection often occurs when abortion surgery is performed with instruments that have not been strictly sterilized, the instruments damage the cervix, or there are original infected lesions in the uterine cavity. Surgical abortion or spontaneous abortion can cause the spread of infection. In addition, not paying attention to hygiene after abortion (natural or artificial abortion) and premature sexual intercourse can also cause infection.

Since threatened abortion is very harmful, we must pay special attention to preserving the fetus. During the period of preserving the fetus, the patient should not only rest in bed (try not to move around except for urination and defecation), but also strictly refrain from sexual intercourse. In addition, the patient should maintain emotional stability, avoid tense environments, supplement with adequate nutrition, and take some vitamin E orally.
