Patient's question:
At 14 weeks pregnant, first-time pregnancy, no discomfort symptoms. Ultrasound examination at the county hospital showed: the placenta was located on the anterior wall of the uterus, function grade 0, the lower margin was close to the internal cervical os. A hypoechoic area approximately 1.41.1 cm in size was observed on the posterior wall of the lower uterine segment, with slightly increased central echo and sparse punctate blood flow signals visible at the periphery.Doctor's answer:
Low-lying placenta is related to fetal implantation. Currently, observation can be done first, as it may gradually rise with the elongation of the lower uterine segment as the gestational age increases. It is now necessary to avoid strenuous exercise. Follow-up in the late stage of pregnancy is required. If it still does not rise, there is a risk of bleeding. During labor, a cesarean section may also be required to deliver the baby. Generally, doctors will advise patients with risk signs during prenatal examinations to maintain personal hygiene and avoid sexual activity. Additionally, patients should also pay attention to having a comfortable environment, which is beneficial for rest. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
