Generally speaking, the amount of amniotic fluid increases with the duration of pregnancy. If the amount of amniotic fluid is insufficient, it can directly affect the fetus, leading to poor fetal development and hypoxia. Therefore, when there is a shortage of milk, mothers will take corresponding measures, but some mothers' amniotic fluid cannot be replenished. So, why can't the amniotic fluid be replenished?
1. Fetal malformation: If amniotic fluid cannot always be replenished, it may cause fetal malformation, such as renal hypoplasia, urethral stricture, etc.
2. Expired pregnancy; If the fetus is not born after the due date and placental function declines, dehydration of the fetus can cause insufficient amniotic fluid, so some mothers always cannot replenish amniotic fluid.
3. Drinking less water: Generally speaking, if there is less amniotic fluid, it is necessary to drink more water. If water is not consumed in large quantities, it is difficult to replenish it. Therefore, when a mother drinks less water, it can lead to the inability to replenish amniotic fluid.
4. Delayed fetal development: Delayed fetal development can also lead to oligohydramnios, and if oligohydramnios is caused by this reason, pregnant women should receive timely treatment, otherwise it can lead to fetal intellectual disability.
Oligohydramnios poses a great threat to the fetus. Prolonged oligohydramnios can cause fetal compression, leading to facial deformities and potentially hand and foot deformities. Therefore, when oligohydramnios occurs, pregnant women must seek timely treatment and increase their water intake to avoid premature delivery.
