Can a child get pregnant with a sexually transmitted disease? Doctor: Gonorrhea requires induction of labor
I believe everyone is not unfamiliar with sexually transmitted diseases, which are highly contagious. Especially for pregnant women, once they suffer from sexually transmitted diseases, it is necessary to actively seek treatment to prevent infection of the fetus and avoid fetal malformations or stillbirth.
What should pregnant women do if they get sexually transmitted diseases?
1. Choose a reputable hospital for treatment
Suffering from genital warts, gonorrhea, or genital herpes may infect newborns through the production line. When infected with syphilis, the placenta infects the fetus. When a pregnant woman suffers from genital warts, the hormone levels in her body undergo significant changes, coupled with poor immune function, increased vaginal discharge, and abnormal acidic environment in the vagina, which can cause the wart tissue to become more and more numerous and enlarged. In addition, it also increases its brittleness and is prone to bleeding. After a woman becomes pregnant, her reproductive organs become congested and soft, and some medications can cause harm to the body. Pregnant women must choose a reputable hospital for treatment, and cannot do too much at once when undergoing laser treatment for genital warts. Don't misuse antibiotics. Otherwise, it will affect the development of the fetus. The combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine can shorten the course of the disease.
2. Strictly follow the doctor's advice for re examination
Strictly follow the doctor's instructions to go to the hospital for a check-up, and the patient will undergo a check-up every 3, 6, and 9 months of pregnancy after receiving treatment. Children need to undergo a syphilis serum test every six months after birth, at the age of one month, one year, and two years. Genital herpes and genital warts have a certain degree of recurrence, and even if they are treated, it is necessary to consolidate medication for six months.
3. Take relevant measures
Based on the condition of sexually transmitted diseases, see if it is necessary to terminate pregnancy or undergo a cesarean section. If pregnant women suffer from syphilis, as long as they receive treatment in a regular hospital early on, the fetus will be healthy. If genital warts do not affect delivery, a cesarean section is not necessary. The main pathogen causing genital warts is human papillomavirus, which can lead to papillomavirus in the pharynx of the fetus. Therefore, it is necessary to weigh the pros and cons under the guidance of a doctor. Suffering from gonorrhea requires induced abortion and abortion. Neisseria gonorrhoeae multiply in the cervical canal and cervix, causing secretions to flow out. During abortion, instruments need to pass through the cervix and vagina, and Neisseria gonorrhoeae may enter the uterine cavity. To check for gonococcal infections, an abortion must be performed after complete cure to prevent the spread of the infection.
Generally, vaginal secretions increase significantly after pregnancy. It is important to pay attention to the cleanliness and hygiene of the external genitalia, frequently clean with water, wipe from front to back after each bowel movement or urination, maintain local cleanliness and hygiene, and try to choose underwear with good ventilation.
