Patient's question:
All symptoms: I had my period on July 5th, and today is exactly 40 days pregnant. I have uterine adenomyosis, polycystic ovary, and uterine fibroids. I took ovulation-inducing medication and injections to get pregnant. Now I have no symptoms, and today I had an ultrasound at the hospital, which said the fetal heartbeat was slow. Onset time and cause: Treatment: The doctor prescribed a 10-day course of today. Desired help: Could you please tell me what causes the slow fetal heartbeat in this situation? Can the baby be saved? Thank you.Doctor's answer:
(1) Physiological tachycardia: Physiological tachycardia is very common. Many factors can affect heart rate, such as changes in posture, physical activity, food digestion, emotional anxiety, pregnancy, excitement, fear, excitement, alcohol consumption, smoking, and tea drinking, all of which can increase heart rate. Additionally, age is also a factor, as children often have faster heart rates.(2) Drug-induced tachycardia: Sympathomimetic drugs such as ephedrine and epinephrine can cause tachycardia. Parasympatholytic drugs such as atropine, caffeine, thyroid hormone, and amphetamine can also lead to an increased heart rate.
