Many women in the late stages of pregnancy find during examinations that their unborn baby has renal pelvis separation. However, many parents have the impression that male babies may have renal pelvis separation, and they don't know if female babies will also experience this situation, nor do they know how to deal with it. So, will a female baby have renal pelvis separation?
Firstly, female babies may also experience renal pelvis separation, regardless of gender. However, male babies have a higher chance of experiencing renal pelvis separation, with almost all cases of separation occurring in males. Renal pelvis separation refers to the separation between a baby's kidneys and ureters, which can affect the excretion of urine.
Secondly, the reason why babies experience renal pelvis separation is because when they are in the mother's womb and defecating, there is a certain pressure on the baby due to the presence of amniotic fluid around them, which makes it difficult to excrete and causes the fetus to hold urine. Over time, renal pelvis separation is more likely to occur. This situation is quite common, therefore it is a normal phenomenon.
In addition, after the baby is born, there is usually no pressure from amniotic fluid, and the urine and feces gradually return to normal. The separation of the renal pelvis will also improve on its own, and there is no need for special treatment. Parents do not need to worry too much. After birth, if the degree of renal pelvis separation does not exceed 16 millimeters, it is a normal situation and does not require special treatment.
