Patient's question:
Xiao Chao has pregnancy-induced hypertension and preeclampsia symptoms, but there are differences! Which one poses less harm to adults and children, and which one allows for a normal delivery? Now I'm 38 weeks and 4 days pregnant, with blood pressure ranging from 90-130 or 90—140, no protein in urine, no edema, and no red streaks in the eyes. Ultrasound shows that the fetus is doing well, and the adult is also normal. In this case, how can a normal delivery be possible!Doctor's answer:
Preeclampsia and pregnancy-induced hypertension are the same condition. Based on your careful examination, you only have mild elevation in diastolic blood pressure, without proteinuria or edema, and the fetus is developing normally. If there are no abnormalities in the birth canal, labor power, or fetal position during labor, you can have a normal delivery. It is recommended that you relax your mind, avoid tension and stress, maintain a light but nutritious and balanced diet, ensure sufficient deep sleep, and have a regular lifestyle. Regular prenatal check-ups should be conducted.
