Where to start with sexually transmitted diseases during pregnancy? Doctor: Pregnant women should undergo regular follow-up examinations
Sexually transmitted diseases are highly contagious, especially when pregnant women suffer from sexually transmitted diseases. Viruses and bacteria enter the fetus through the placenta or become infected through the birth canal during childbirth, causing fetal malformations.
What should pregnant women do if they suffer from sexually transmitted diseases?
1. Choose a reputable hospital for treatment
Genital herpes, chlamydia infection, gonorrhea and Genital wart will infect the fetus through the birth canal, and syphilis will be transmitted to the fetus through the placenta. When suffering from Genital wart, the hormone metabolism of pregnant women changes, Vaginal discharge increase, vaginal environment changes, wart tissue increases, brittleness increases, and bleeding is easy.
After pregnancy, genital congestion weakens, and medication can affect the fetus. Do not rush during treatment. When using laser to treat Genital wart, it is not allowed to treat too much at one time. Do not take drugs that have an impact on fetal development, such as tetracycline. Generally, the condition is controlled through comprehensive treatment with traditional Chinese and Western medicine.
2. Regular follow-up as instructed by the doctor
Strictly follow the doctor's instructions to complete treatment. For syphilis, penicillin should be chosen for treatment. If treatment is given in the first three months of pregnancy, it should be checked again at 6 and 9 months of pregnancy. When a child is born, they should go to the hospital for a syphilis serological test after full moon, and do it every six months within the age of two. Genital herpes and Genital wart are highly recurrent, and treatment during pregnancy should also be reviewed regularly in the hospital.
3. Pay attention to personal hygiene
After pregnancy, Vaginal discharge increase significantly and are infected by sexually transmitted diseases. Pay attention to the cleanness and hygiene of the vulva. Try not to wear tight underwear and pants. Clean tight underwear and underwear diligently, and do not choose tight underwear. Otherwise, the local temperature will increase and induce infection. After each urination, wipe the area with toilet paper from front to back to maintain cleanliness and hygiene. Do not use a public bathtub. Wash the perineum with clean water before going to bed every night, with a dedicated person. Underwear and bedding should be dried in the sun and sterilized. The living room should be regularly ventilated and provide balanced nutrition to the body.
Kind reminder
Pregnant women should take relevant measures when suffering from sexually transmitted diseases, and if it affects fetal development, it is necessary to terminate the pregnancy in advance. For example, gonorrhea, because Neisseria gonorrhoeae mainly propagates in the cervical canal and cervical orifice, there will be a large amount of secretions flowing out. The operating instruments used in artificial abortion must pass through the cervical orifice and vagina, which will inevitably bring Neisseria gonorrhoeae into the uterine cavity. Therefore, patients must control the condition of abortion to avoid the spread of infection.
