Fetoplacental Insufficiency

Fetoplacental insufficiency (FPI) is a condition in which the function of the placenta (the organ that connects the fetus to the mother's body) and its ability to provide the fetus with essential nutrients and remove waste products is impaired. FPN can occur in any trimester of pregnancy, but is most common in women with an increased risk of pregnancy complications, such as gestational diabetes, hypertension, preeclampsia, preterm birth, low fetal weight, etc.

Fetoplacental insufficiency is preceded by various factors, such as infectious diseases, chronic maternal diseases, toxic effects on the body of the mother and fetus, as well as taking medications.

The main symptoms of FPN are:

– Increased fetal heart rate;
– Impaired growth and development of the fetus;
– Bloody vaginal discharge;
– Deterioration in the general condition of the mother.

If symptoms of FPN are detected, you should immediately consult a doctor for diagnosis and treatment. Depending on the severity of FPN, various treatment methods may be prescribed, including drug therapy, lifestyle changes, nutritional adjustments, etc. In some cases, hospitalization and additional tests may be required.

However, despite all the efforts of doctors, FPN can lead to serious complications for the mother and fetus. Therefore, it is important to seek medical help in a timely manner and follow the recommendations of doctors.

Fetoplacental insufficiency is a condition in which the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the fetus is disrupted due to inadequate functioning of the placenta.

Fetoplacental insufficiency can occur during pregnancy or in the period after childbirth, when placental function is disrupted under the influence of various factors. These include: - The use of certain medications (for example, antibiotics); - Bad habits of the mother (alcohol, smoking); - Increased maternal body weight (above 90 kg); - Exposure to toxic substances (for example, when working in production); - Severe chronic diseases in the mother
