Placental calcification grade 1 affects the fetus?

Patient's question:

Doctor, hello. I am currently 8 months pregnant. I started taking Calcium and Qi at 6 months. Yesterday, I had a B, and the doctor said the placenta has calcified to degree 1. Could this affect the fetus? Could it lead to fetal hypoxia? I am very worried. Should I have a C-section now!

Doctor's answer:

Hello! Your placenta condition indicates that the placenta has matured and is aging. If the amniotic fluid condition and the baby's fetal movement are good, you can wait for another week and then have a follow-up ultrasound. If the above conditions are not good, you can deliver earlier.
