In addition to the elderly and children, pregnant women are also hardest hit by the flu. Experts warn that there are many potential dangers if pregnant women get the flu. It is better to remedy beforehand than to remedy beforehand.
The first trimester of pregnancy is a critical period for the development of various fetal organs, so early pregnancy influenza has a relatively greater impact on the fetus. Wu Lan, deputy chief physician of the Obstetrics Department of Nanjing Maternal and Child Health Hospital, said that the adverse effects of influenza on the fetus will be reduced in the second trimester, but high fever for a long time will also hinder the development of the fetus in the second trimester. The uterus can lead to miscarriage and premature birth in severe cases.
Ulan said that getting the flu vaccine is the most effective way to prevent the flu and can significantly reduce a recipient\’s risk of getting the flu and serious complications. It is best for high-risk groups such as pregnant women, the elderly, and children to get vaccinated before the flu season. Women who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant and have no contraindications can receive inactivated influenza vaccine. Live attenuated abortion vaccines can be given after termination of pregnancy. In addition, it is necessary to maintain good personal hygiene habits and reduce activities in crowded places.
Once you get the flu, you should seek medical advice as soon as possible and use medication carefully under the guidance of a doctor. Many pregnant women believe that taking medications during pregnancy will have adverse effects on their children. However, if some diseases during pregnancy are not intervened in time, the consequences will be more serious, and the gain will not be worth the loss. Ulan said that doctors will give safe treatments based on the condition of pregnant women. Xinhua News Agency Nanjing
