Pregnant for 8 months, amniotic fluid 4.3, is it low? A little pain, is it normal?

Patient's question:

Amniotic fluid 4.3 is low, I feel a little pain, is it normal?

Doctor's answer:

Amniotic fluid primarily originates from the urine excreted by the fetus, which is then swallowed through the gastrointestinal tract. In the late stages of pregnancy, most cases of oligohydramnios are caused by placental dysfunction, while abnormal development of the fetal urinary system can also lead to this condition. In such cases, comprehensive examinations and appropriate intravenous fluid therapy, such as supplementing vitamins and glucose, as well as oxygen therapy, can help achieve recovery.
