Women need to go to the hospital for prenatal check ups every month starting from pregnancy. As the fetus gradually grows larger, the content of prenatal check ups will also change. Of course, women also need to check their bodies before getting pregnant. If there are any problems, they can seek timely treatment to avoid difficult control during pregnancy. Some pregnant women may experience low placenta, so what should be done if the placenta is low at 22 weeks of pregnancy?
At 22 weeks of pregnancy, which is mid pregnancy, if the placenta is low but there are no abnormal conditions, the pregnant woman does not have any discomfort problems, and the fetus is healthy, there is no need for excessive intervention. You can observe it first. As the number of weeks of pregnancy increases, the lower segment of the uterus may elongate, which may cause the placenta to rise.
At 28 weeks, it is necessary to go to the hospital again to check the condition of the placenta. If the problem of low placenta still exists, attention should be paid, and in severe cases, treatment is needed. Pregnant women with low placenta should be careful not to engage in strenuous exercise, squat, or sit on chairs that are too short to avoid problems.
In general, having a low placenta in pregnant women is not a big problem, but pregnant women need to take care of their own health. Usually, pregnant women need to pay more attention than usual, and they also need to pay special attention to their diet. If the problem of low placenta is severe in the later stages of pregnancy, a cesarean section can be performed to deliver the baby first.
