A healthy mother leads to better development of the fetus, and it is crucial to prepare for pregnancy, which is related to the health of the fetus. Especially for pregnant women with abnormal blood pressure during pregnancy, they need to be more cautious and monitor their blood pressure in a timely manner to avoid causing greater harm and endangering their lives due to blood pressure issues. So, is a pregnant woman's blood pressure of 115/90 considered as preeclampsia?
Firstly, a blood pressure of 115/90 is not considered as preeclampsia, and it is also within the normal range. When the blood pressure exceeds 140/90, many uncomfortable symptoms will appear, such as body swelling, fatigue, and other phenomena. If it exceeds 160/110, the situation is more serious and symptoms such as dizziness and proteinuria may occur. It is necessary to check blood pressure in a timely manner.
Secondly, expectant mothers with preeclampsia are usually not recommended by doctors for vaginal delivery to avoid the danger of excessive abdominal pressure during delivery, which may trigger cerebral hemorrhage. Moreover, preeclampsia can lead to a decrease in blood supply to the fetus in the uterus, causing symptoms of hypoxia and increasing the risk of cerebral palsy.
Pregnancy induced hypertension should not be taken lightly, as it is an important factor that endangers the safety of the fetus and pregnant women. Pregnant women with high blood pressure must control their blood pressure and terminate the pregnancy if necessary. However, premature termination of pregnancy can also lead to premature birth. Relatively speaking, premature infants have weaker immunity and a higher chance of developing various other diseases. Therefore, it is still necessary to undergo prenatal examinations.
