Pregnant women's bodies are different from other people's bodies. Because the hormones in pregnancy will change, the body's resistance will also decrease, and they are easily troubled by diseases, and they can't take drugs casually. Hypoglycemia is a common disease among pregnant women. Let's talk about the harm of hypoglycemia in pregnant women.
The symptoms of hypoglycemia in pregnant women are dizziness, headache, palpitation, shaking hands, excessive hunger, sweating, pallor, chills, behavioral changes or abnormalities (such as irritability, crying, irritability and aggressiveness), numbness of lips, tingling, general fatigue and blurred vision. In severe cases, unconsciousness, general convulsions, lethargy and even coma may occur, which is life-threatening. The hypoglycemia symptoms of these pregnant women all indicate that the blood sugar level may be too low. If the hypoglycemia reaction is severe, it is necessary to increase the amount of oral carbohydrates after correcting hypoglycemia.
pregnant women with hypoglycemia symptoms must go to the hospital for examination to avoid danger.
when the blood sugar level of pregnant women is lower than 2.8mmol/L(5mg/dl) or the blood sugar drops too fast, hypoglycemia symptoms of pregnant women may occur. Hypoglycemia is common in patients treated with insulin or pregnant women who have insufficient food due to hyperemesis during pregnancy. Some patients' blood sugar is not lower than 2.8mmol/L(5mg/dl), but they have some symptoms of hypoglycemia, which is called hypoglycemia reaction.
The harm of hypoglycemia in diabetes is really great, and the symptoms of hypoglycemia are obvious, which is most likely to lead to coma, stillbirth and other serious consequences. Therefore, when hypoglycemia occurs in pregnant women, we must actively seek medical advice to avoid syncope in pregnant women. The common causes of hypoglycemia are excessive use of insulin or wrong injection time, insufficient diet or failure to eat on time, increased exercise without timely adjustment of diet or insulin dosage, and excessive drinking on an empty stomach.
If severe hypoglycemia coma is not rescued in time, the delay of more than 6 hours will cause serious brain damage and even death.
If pregnant women have physical problems, it will not only affect their own health, but also affect the health of the baby in their bellies. Therefore, even for the sake of the baby, expectant mothers should try their best to avoid hypoglycemia, pay attention to reasonable diet and increase nutrition.
