Is it suitable for a vaginal birth when the amniotic sac breaks and the water has flowed out?

Patient's question:

Patient: Female, 43 years old, all normal before prenatal examination.
Current condition: Admitted to the hospital due to rupture of fetal membranes.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, generally, a normal amniotic fluid index in the late stages of pregnancy is between 5-18. The current condition is considered normal, so there is no need to worry. You can have regular follow-up checkups. If there is an increase in amniotic fluid, the possibility of malformation cannot be ruled out. If necessary, an amniocentesis can be performed.
Hello, it is considered to be residual. An ultrasound examination can help with diagnosis. If residual is found and the volume is small, you can use Motherwort ointment and anti-inflammatory drugs for treatment. For larger volumes, medication may not be effective, and a D&C procedure may be required. It is important to maintain hygiene in the perineal area after the surgery. Avoid spicy and irritating foods.
