Placental Problems

img

Placental problems can significantly impact pregnancy and fetal health. Common issues include placental abruption, where the placenta detaches from the uterus prematurely, causing bleeding and potentially compromising the baby's oxygen and nutrient supply. Placenta previa occurs when the placenta covers the cervix, risking severe bleeding during delivery. Placenta accreta involves the placenta attaching too deeply into the uterine wall, leading to complications during childbirth.

Placental insufficiency, where the placenta fails to provide adequate nutrients and oxygen, can result in fetal growth restriction. These conditions often require careful monitoring and may necessitate early delivery or surgical intervention to ensure the safety of both mother and baby. Early detection and medical management are crucial for favorable outcomes.
