Illnesses during pregnancy:
Causes, symptoms & help
High-risk pregnancy – what causes it?
Every woman wants her pregnancy to proceed according to the rules of the art and to be physiological. Unfortunately, various complications occur during pregnancy that cannot always be predicted or prevented. When do we talk about high-risk pregnancies and what are the causes?
Intestinal colic during pregnancy
Abdominal pain is always a cause for concern for pregnant women. This is because they can have all kinds of causes. However, this also includes benign conditions such as intestinal colic. What are the symptoms and treatment of intestinal colic during pregnancy?
Urinary incontinence during pregnancy
Many different types of complaints can occur during pregnancy. Many women complain of urinary incontinence, especially in the last trimester. Sometimes this condition persists even after the birth. Why should you see a urogynaecological physiotherapist during pregnancy and what remedies are available for incontinence during pregnancy?
Stomach pain during pregnancy
Pain during pregnancy is always a cause for concern for expectant mothers. In most cases, its cause is not threatening, but there are situations in which stomach pain requires intervention or hospitalisation. Find out more about the treatment and possible causes of stomach pain during pregnancy.
Thrombocytopenia during pregnancy
Blood count tests should be carried out regularly during pregnancy. Abnormalities, including thrombocytopenia, can be detected in this way. Although in most cases it is not associated with serious consequences, it can be a symptom of dangerous complications during pregnancy. Find out about the possible causes of thrombocytopenia in pregnancy.
Pain during labour
Labour pain, unlike other sources of pain, is not an indication of illness but is part of the physiological process of giving birth to a child. People try to compare it to many things, but most women in labour find that it cannot be compared to anything else. How do you recognise labour pain and how long does it last?
Venous thromboembolism during pregnancy
Pregnancy is associated with an increased risk of venous thromboembolism. A leg thrombosis or pulmonary embolism can lead to serious complications and pose a serious threat to a woman's life. Find out about the risk factors and symptoms of venous thromboembolism during pregnancy.
Cervical suture (cervical cerclage)
Cervical suturing is a recognised method of preventing premature births. By placing a circular suture over the cervix, the duration of pregnancy can be extended, reducing the risk of complications associated with premature birth in the baby. Find out more about the indications for a cervical suture and how it is used.
Diastasis of the symphysis pubis
Pregnancy is a time of many changes in the expectant mother's body. In addition to creating the best possible conditions for the child's development, the body is also preparing for the birth. One of the symptoms of this is the stretching of the pubic symphysis, which usually occurs in the third trimester of pregnancy. Find out more about the symptoms and treatment of diastasis of the symphysis pubis.
