Although hyperthyroidism does not occur frequently, I believe many people are aware that this disease is caused by excessive secretion of thyroid hormones by the thyroid gland, leading to thyroid toxicity. For women, if pregnancy is complicated with hyperthyroidism, it is considered a high-risk pregnancy, which has a great impact on both the fetus and the pregnant woman. Let's take a look at the nursing rounds for pregnant women with hyperthyroidism.
Nursing rounds for pregnant women with hyperthyroidism
Having hyperthyroidism during pregnancy also has a significant impact on the body. The most important thing is to detect, diagnose, and treat it early. Patients with hyperthyroidism during pregnancy may experience symptoms such as palpitations, shortness of breath, fear of heat, or increased appetite, but their weight will be greatly reduced. Family members should take pregnant women for physical examinations to detect the disease early and receive treatment as soon as possible.
Secondly, pregnant women with hyperthyroidism often suffer from insomnia and frequent dreams, particularly afraid of heat. Therefore, family members should show more care and attention, ensure indoor quietness, and not let pregnant women be stimulated to avoid affecting their sleep, which is also detrimental to the development of the fetus.
Finally, if pregnant women suffer from hyperthyroidism, they are prone to excitement and irritability, which not only affects their own health but also the safety of the fetus. Therefore, it is important to take good psychological care. Family members should guide pregnant women more. If the situation is not optimistic, pregnant women with hyperthyroidism may even need to see a psychologist to avoid developing pregnancy syndrome or childbirth phobia.
What are the symptoms and manifestations of pregnancy combined with hyperthyroidism
1. Pregnant women experience physiological thyroid enlargement. However, the area of this physiological thyroid enlargement does not exceed 20%, and fewer patients may experience symptoms such as palpitations, fear of heat, sweating, and weight loss.
2. Limb weakness. When pregnant women develop hyperthyroidism, they may experience symptoms such as limb weakness, palpitations, and shortness of breath. In addition, the digestive system and metabolism will change, leading to increased appetite, frequent and sparse bowel movements.
3. Emotional excitement. Pregnant women are prone to emotional agitation, mood swings, lack of concentration, fatigue, and weakness.
When women are preparing for pregnancy, they must have an understanding of their own body. The best way is to go to the hospital for a comprehensive pre pregnancy examination to eliminate all problems, in order to prepare for future pregnancies, provide a healthy environment for the fetus, and ensure the safety of future pregnant women's pregnancy and childbirth.
