The most common beverage consumed by adults and children nowadays may be milk. Milk not only helps to increase the calcium content in the body, but also helps alleviate the pain of insomnia for some adults. Many pregnant women may experience calcium deficiency in the later stages of pregnancy. What are the effects of calcium deficiency in the later stages of pregnancy?
The biggest impact may be on the absorption and utilization of nutrients for the baby in the pregnant mother's womb, which may lead to poor development and many adverse effects on the brain due to the mother's failure to provide timely nutrition. Therefore, pregnant mothers need to supplement calcium through food or medication during the pre pregnancy stage, as well as early, mid, and late pregnancy.
Because calcium is not sufficient for the body's needs, pregnant mothers may not be able to concentrate when doing things, and may feel anxious after walking for a short time. Some pregnant mothers may also experience fatigue, laziness, and lack of interest in any food due to insufficient calcium. According to one's own situation, it is advisable to undergo trace element and endocrine testing as soon as possible.
In the short term, the impact on endocrine function may not be significant, and it may not have a significant effect on hormones. However, in the long run, it may cause abnormal endocrine function in pregnant mothers, with the most obvious impact on bones. For babies, bone density may decrease and head growth may slow down.
