Amniotic fluid puncture surgery must be performed in a large or medium-sized hospital and under the guidance of professional doctors to prevent intrauterine infection. After undergoing amniocentesis surgery, it is important to rest more and avoid excessive fatigue that may cause accidents to the fetus. If there are no abnormalities within one day after surgery, there is no need to worry too much. So why does amniocentesis cause miscarriage?
1. Fetal chromosomal abnormalities
The risk of amniocentesis surgery is very low. If miscarriage occurs, it indicates abnormal fetal development, and the probability of miscarriage due to chromosomal abnormalities is high. Under normal circumstances, babies with chromosomal abnormalities are difficult to successfully conceive, so even if a miscarriage occurs, pregnant women should not be too sad. This is a process of survival of the fittest. We should find ways to identify the causes of fetal chromosomal abnormalities and prepare for the next successful pregnancy.
2. Intrauterine infection
During the surgery, bacteria may be introduced into the amniotic sac, leading to intrauterine infection. At this time, there may be discomfort such as high fever or abdominal pain, and sometimes complications such as premature rupture of membranes may occur during the puncture process, which is also a major factor leading to miscarriage or premature birth. So pay attention to personal care after surgery, and seek medical attention immediately when symptoms of abdominal pain or vaginal bleeding occur.
