There are many things that girls need to pay attention to when they are pregnant, and the physical condition during pregnancy can affect the child. Girls may take supplements during pregnancy, but it is very likely that excessive supplementation can lead to gestational hypertension after childbirth. So, how long does it take for gestational hypertension to recover after childbirth?
Normal recovery usually occurs within two months after childbirth. If it cannot be recovered, it will turn into chronic hypertension and preeclampsia, also known as gestational hypertension syndrome. It refers to the symptoms such as elevated blood pressure, urinary protein, edema, etc. that occur in the middle and late stages of pregnancy, despite having normal blood pressure. Common gestational hypertension will recover within 12 weeks postpartum, with a decrease in urinary protein and disappearance of edema. However, during the onset of the disease, retinal edema is prone to occur, manifested as blurred vision. The onset age of gestational hypertension is generally more common in pregnant women under 20 years old or over 40 years old.
Once diagnosed with hypertension, due to the easy absorption of antihypertensive drugs through the placenta during pregnancy, many drugs are prone to teratogenic effects. After being diagnosed with pregnancy induced hypertension, it is necessary to strictly follow the doctor's advice to use antihypertensive drugs, and at the same time, combine low salt, low-fat diet, high protein and high calcium diet to slow down the onset of pregnancy induced hypertension.
The most important thing for gestational hypertension is regulation. Pregnant women can eat more foods that promote blood circulation, such as the most common black fungus, onions, and ginger, which can regulate blood circulation. If pregnant women have severe symptoms of gestational hypertension, such as dizziness and chest tightness, medication treatment is necessary.
