Is it dangerous to calcium placenta?

The article was consulted professionally by Dr. Nguyen Anh Tu – Doctor of Obstetrics ultrasound – Pre-birth diagnosis – Obstetrics department – Share99 Hai Phong International Health Hub.

The older the gestational age, the higher the maturity of the fetal vegetables, but in each person the manifestation is different, depending on each person, the process of calciumization of vegetable placenta takes place quickly or slowly.

1. The phenomenon of calciumization of placenta

The phenomenon of calciumization of placenta is the deposition of calcium between the placenta and the muscles of the uterus, which appears in pregnancies almost full months. Through placenta calciumization, the doctor also assesses the maturity of the fetus.

2. Calciumization levels of placenta

The degree of calcification of placenta is divided into three levels, the highest level of m maturity of the fetal vegetable is level 3. The older the gestational age, the higher the maturity of the fetal vegetables, but in each person the manifestation is different, depending on each person, the process of calciumization takes place quickly or slowly. The older the gestational age, the more calcium clouds.

On ultrasound, vegetable placenta will be assessed the level of calciumization with the following levels:

  • Degree 0: gestational age is about 31 ± 1 week;
  • Degree 1: gestational age 34 ± 3.2 weeks;
  • Degree 2: gestational age 37.6 ± 2.7 weeks;
  • Degree 3: gestational age 38.4 ± 2.2 weeks;

When the 3rd degree calciumization vegetable placenta shows that the fetal lung function has begun to improve, the baby can gradually adapt and be able to live when out in the environment.

The older the gestational age, the higher the maturity of the fetal vegetables, but in each person the manifestation is different, depending on each person, the process of calciumization of vegetable placenta takes place quickly or slowly.

 

3. When is calciumizing placenta dangerous?

Most pregnant women who read the ultrasound results find themselves with calciumization of placenta are very worried, afraid of fast calcification of the placenta, nutrition through the placenta that feeds the fetus will be slower. However, most of the phenomenon of calciumization of placenta is not ominous. This speaks only to the maturity of pregnancy, not to the degeneration of placenta.

But in some cases, the accumulation of calcium placenta a lot can cause some of the following effects:

  • Accumulation of calcium in which region will cause fibrosis of placenta and cause blockage of several blood vessels in placenta.
  • If 3rd degree calcium vegetable placenta occurs from the early weeks of pregnancy, it will cause poor transmission of nutrients from mother to child, the fetus in the abdomen absorbs less nutrients, leading to fetal malnutrition.
  • Pregnancies beyond the date of birth and much calcified placenta are at higher risk of gestational failure due to severe hypoxia. These pregnancies will also have 3 times higher mortality rates than other fetuses.
  • If it lasts until week 42, calcification of vegetable placenta will happen even faster. The blood concentrated on placenta’s wheels will decrease, making it difficult to exchange oxygen. This condition, if prolonged, can lead to pregnancy failure, pregnancy dying during labor or dying shortly after birth just a few hours or affecting the development of the child due to a lack of oxygen in the brain.
Pregnant
For all pregnant women, including the diagnosis of calcification or not calcification of the pregnant vegetable placenta, it is necessary to go to the doctor as prescribed, on the schedule of the doctor.

For all pregnant women, including the diagnosis of calcification or not calcification of the pregnant vegetable placenta, it is necessary to go to the doctor as prescribed, on the schedule of the doctor.

Therefore, for all pregnant women, including the diagnosis of calcification or not calcification of the pregnant vegetable placenta, it is necessary to go to the doctor as prescribed, on schedule of the doctor. When the fetus has enough days and months (through an ultrasound assessment of the amount of amniotic fluid, calcificationof fetal vegetables …) and the pregnant woman has not shown any signs of becoming pregnant, the doctor will make timely interventions to best the health of the mother and baby.

In the last months, pregnant women not only face a high risk of amniotic deficiency, multiple amniotic fluid, calcification of placenta, but also a lot of other health problems. In order for the birth to go well, the last 3 months of pregnancy, the health of both mother and baby needs to be closely monitored and examined. Pregnant women need to recognize the signs of labor, distinguish the psychological mounds to go to the hospital early for timely childbirth.

To protect the health of mothers and babies comprehensively as well as help mothers feel more secure during labor, Share99 provides a full maternityservice, helping doctors monitor the health of mothers and babies at the beginning of pregnancy, detect early and promptly intervene health problems. In particular, with the strength of being able to diagnose and detect fetal abnormalities early, Share99 has helped many couples to have safe and healthy children. Mother and baby will be carried out skin adjacent to the skin, screening, comprehensive health after birth before going home.

Dr. Nguyen Anh Tu has 6 years of experience in obstetrics and gynecology ultrasound, especially researched and trained in pregnancy ultrasound – pre-birth diagnosis. Dr. Tu has completed courses on ultrasound – pre-birth diagnosis of the FMF International Society of Fetal Medicine; be trained in consulting and implementing diagnostic intervention techniques in fetal medicine and participate in many in-depth conferences and seminars on Fetal Medicine. Currently, a doctor at Obstetrics and Gynecology Department of Share99 Hai Phong International Health Hub
