Matters needing attention in older pregnancy: regulating normal hormone secretion in the body
If you want to get pregnant at an advanced age, "adjusting the manager's belt" is an important pre-pregnancy preparation. The so-called menstruation regulation refers to the adjustment of menstruation, so that menstrual time is regular, menstrual length is appropriate, and menstrual volume is normalized. Because of the small amount, it may be that the intima is too thin, which will make implantation difficult. In addition, the depth of blood color and menstrual pain are all within the scope of menstrual regulation.
Band management refers to the adjustment of vaginal secretions. Too much secretion is a sign of wet weight of the body, which will lead to infertility. Too little secretion will lead to vaginal dryness, making it difficult to have sex and, of course, to get pregnant.
In addition, deep anxiety will stop women from ovulating. When you decide to have children, you should learn how to eliminate this anxiety, such as yoga, breathing training or any activity that can make you feel relaxed.
If you want to have a pregnant sex life in a happy mood, without depression and troubles, your husband should pay attention to and let his wife reach orgasm, which is very important for getting a healthy and intelligent child.
Depression is not conducive to fetal physical development and emotional intelligence progress. Therefore, expectant mothers should dispel their depression and pessimism, breathe fresh air outside and participate in social activities. A husband should be considerate and understand his wife and guide her to control her emotions. Psychological factors in labor can cause dystocia and fetal hypoxia, so we should maintain a good mental state during labor and avoid bad psychology such as fear, tension and anxiety.
Maintain a standard weight
Another thing to prepare before pregnancy is to maintain a standard weight. Being too fat or too thin will affect the secretory function in the body, which is not conducive to pregnancy, and even increase the chances of upper respiratory diseases and diarrhea after the baby is born. Obesity or thinness is also not conducive to the postpartum recovery of pregnant women, which will increase the risk of pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome and gestational diabetes.
If a woman is too thin and her fat is not normal enough, there will be endocrine disorders and it is not easy to get pregnant. Too thin people often have low estrogen levels and are not easy to get pregnant. This is because it is difficult for women's ovaries to secrete normal levels of estrogen at this time, leading to menstrual cycle disorder and even amenorrhea. According to statistics, the reason of 6% infertility patients is underweight. In addition, women who are too thin are prone to malnutrition, and the endometrium is like barren soil, so it is difficult for fertilized eggs to implant.
It is also difficult for obese women to get pregnant, and even if they get pregnant, there will be various risks. Obesity of expectant mothers will lead to increased complications during pregnancy. Mainly pregnancy-induced hypertension, its prevalence rate is 50%. Another major complication is gestational diabetes, and the prevalence rate of obese expectant mothers is four times higher than that of ordinary expectant mothers. In addition, obesity greatly increases the possibility of miscarriage, dystocia and stillbirth of expectant mothers, and the neonatal mortality rate is also significantly higher than that of normal-weight newborns.
Therefore, elderly women should pay attention to their weight during pregnancy. By referring to some online methods of measuring standard weight before pregnancy, we can evaluate whether we are standard or not and maintain a standard weight, so as to improve the possibility of pregnancy.
Ensure good egg quality.
Older women should avoid all kinds of environmental pollution during pregnancy, improve immunity, strengthen physical exercise and develop good living habits. Women of high childbearing age who are going to have children should try to avoid the influence of environmental pollution. Try to wear as little makeup as possible, avoid dyeing your hair and not applying nail polish.
Stay away from electromagnetic radiation sources and reduce the use of household appliances with serious electromagnetic radiation, such as microwave ovens, cordless phones, vacuum cleaners, electric blankets, hair dryers and mobile phones. You should minimize the work in front of the computer. If you can't get rid of it completely, it is suggested to go outdoors for a while every hour, or turn off the computer when it is not needed to reduce the harm of the computer. We should consciously stay away from noisy and depressing spaces and maintain a good mental state.
According to their own situation, step by step, such as walking, jogging, swimming and other aerobic exercises, adhere to daily exercise, improve physical fitness. Stay away from bad hobbies such as tea, wine, cigarettes and coffee, and reduce the impact on eggs and fetuses. Get enough sleep every day. Adequate sleep helps to improve the body's immunity.
Pay attention to the weather changes, avoid contact with patients with infectious diseases, and reduce the chance of getting sick. Even if you are sick, don't take medicine at will. We should wait for the doctor to check and make a clear diagnosis before treatment, so as to avoid or reduce the influence of drug treatment on the fetus.
Women who plan to get pregnant at an advanced age must adjust their bodies to the best condition before pregnancy, pay attention to health care during pregnancy, and observe whether diet, sleep and urination are normal at any time as health indicators.
Cultivate a mild uterine environment
Finally, we should cultivate a mild uterine environment, away from palace cold and gynecological diseases.
Palace cold, in Chinese medicine, refers to the cold disease of female uterus (including fallopian tube and ovary). The physical manifestations of palace cold may be dysmenorrhea and irregular menstruation at first, and then sexual desire will decrease. Worst of all, the uterine temperature is low, which is not suitable for fetal growth. Even if pregnant, it is easy to miscarry, so there is infertility caused by palace cold in clinic.
Women with palace cold should eat more foods that can make up the temperature, such as walnuts, jujubes, peanuts, etc., so that the congenital deficiency can be made up by the acquired high energy, and there is no need to worry about getting angry. Palace cold constitution belongs to internal heat deficiency, and it is not easy to have symptoms of fire-like heat. You can walk fast at ordinary times, especially on cobblestone roads, which can stimulate the meridian points on the soles of your feet, dredge meridians, regulate qi and blood, improve blood circulation and keep your whole body warm. In addition, to drive away palace cold, we should coordinate rest and diet: drink more hot soup, enrich blood and medicinal diet to help dispel blood stasis; Soak your feet more, take a good nap and learn to rest.
In addition, in addition to their own pregnancy, older women should also actively prepare for pregnancy. It is best for men to eat more foods that supplement zinc and selenium during pregnancy, which can improve sperm activity. If possible, take Yuzhiyuan tablets to increase the success rate of pregnancy.
Five preparations for pregnancy in the elderly
Project 1
Pregnancy examination+endocrine, folic acid and cervical cancer prevention examination
Premarital check-up, pregnancy check-up and prenatal check-up are important means to ensure prenatal and postnatal care, and women should do a good job in pregnancy check-up during pregnancy preparation. The chief physician of Gynecology and Xiukui, Guangdong Maternal and Child Health Hospital, said that pregnancy examination can eliminate some hereditary diseases in time, understand the physical condition of pregnant women and provide guidance for scientific pregnancy preparation. For example, B-ultrasound can check whether the uterus and ovaries have changed; The reproductive system examination excludes organic diseases such as inflammation and tumor, all in order to ensure the best pregnancy state.
"In addition to the eight general pregnancy tests, it is suggested that elderly women can increase cervical cancer screening, endocrine function and folic acid utilization." He Xiukui reminded that these items will not be included in the general pregnancy test, but they are very important for older women and can be used as a reference guide for pregnancy preparation.
Among them, older women have a higher risk of cervical cancer, so it is necessary to exclude the factors of cervical lesions. Endocrine function is closely related to women's pregnancy, including the examination of female hormones and hormone levels, which is helpful to find out the factors that are not conducive to pregnancy, help doctors tailor pregnancy preparation plans for women, and judge whether women need additional progesterone. Folic acid is a vitamin closely related to pregnancy, which helps to prevent fetal neural tube defects, especially for elderly women. It is also an important way to supplement sufficient folic acid according to its utilization rate.
Item 2
Supplementing folic acid,
Supplementing 0.4mg daily in the third trimester "The importance of folic acid for pregnancy has been paid more and more attention. It is recommended that women start to supplement folic acid in the third trimester. " He Xiukui said that folic acid plays an important role in human metabolism and helps to prevent fetal congenital heart disease, cleft lip and palate, neural tube malformation, Down syndrome and other diseases.
"Folic acid is a vitamin, and most of it exists in green fruits and vegetables." He Xiukui said that the diet of urban life often lacks green vegetables and fruits, which leads to insufficient folic acid intake for many women. Therefore, in addition to eating more fruits and vegetables during pregnancy, it is recommended to supplement 0.4mg folic acid every day. For women with low folic acid utilization rate, it is necessary to supplement 0.8mg per day.
Item 3
Don't stay up late, quit smoking and drinking, and live a regular life.
"Both men and women, staying up late will seriously affect the quality of sperm and eggs, which does not meet the requirements of eugenics." He Xiukui said that taking men as an example, staying up late often will significantly reduce sperm quality. Especially after men reach the age of 35, the integrity of sperm DNA becomes worse, which easily leads to chromosome abnormalities. Women staying up late for a long time will also affect the quality of eggs. Therefore, both men and women need to develop a regular lifestyle without staying up late during pregnancy. In addition, long-term smoking and drinking will increase the rate of fetal malformation and affect embryonic development, so be prepared to quit smoking and drinking.
Item 4
Slow exercise, yoga,
Improve body flexibility
"Whether it is a man or a woman, three months to six months before pregnancy, it is necessary to start strengthening exercise, improving physical fitness and preparing for the baby." He Xiukui said that proper exercise for men is helpful to improve sperm quality and pregnancy rate. Women insist on exercise, on the one hand, can improve the quality of eggs, on the other hand, it can also enhance the flexibility and pregnancy tolerance of the body, and prepare for production and recovery.
She said that it is best to choose some less strenuous exercise, especially those who have no exercise habits, to avoid physical discomfort or injury caused by strenuous exercise. Slow exercise such as jogging, brisk walking and swimming is more suitable. Women can also do more yoga exercises with little difficulty to enhance their flexibility.
Item 5
Don't make up a lot, eat less spicy and warm food, and eat lightly.
Dietotherapy is a lifestyle that Guangdong people attach great importance to. For pregnant men and women, some big hospitals also have special medicated diets for pregnancy preparation, which can adjust the physique through dietotherapy. Especially people with weak constitution can achieve a better pregnancy state through a period of physical adjustment. However, it should be reminded that there is no need to supplement before pregnancy, such as eating ginseng and angelica, unless it is a weak population.
Besides eating more fruits and vegetables to supplement folic acid, protein and collagen should be properly supplemented, and foods rich in vitamin E should be eaten. Eat less spicy and too warm food. Women tend to get warmer when they are pregnant, so it is best to eat lightly to avoid negative effects on the body. In addition, foods such as round meat and coix seed are easy to cause abortion, so it is best to abstain from eating during pregnancy and pregnancy.
