Complication of Pregnancy

There are, understandably, a number of possible complications of pregnancy, especially in teenage pregnancies. Among others, these include certain infections, anemia, trimester bleeding, hyperemesis gravidarum (pernicious nausea and vomiting), eclampsia (coma and/or convulsive seizure), erythroblastosis fetalis (Rh factor incompatibility), ectopic pregnancy (implantation outside the uterine cavity), and spontaneous abortion (miscarriage).

By convention, abortion is defined as delivery or loss of the product of conception before the twentienth week of pregnancy. About 35 % of women bleed or have cramping sometime during the first 20 weeks of pregnancy; about 20% actually abort. Since in 90 % of spontaneous abortions the fetus is either absent or grossly malformed, and in an additional 5% it has chromosomal abnormalities, spontaneous abortion may be a natural, purposeful rejection. If a woman has three or more successive pregnancies that end in spontaneous abortion, she is said   to have habitual abortion.

Toxic Shock Syndrome

Toxic shock syndrom is a illness that primarily affects young women using tampon during menstral periods. Because a particular brand of tampon was statistically associated with many cases, that product was withdrawn from the market. Other manufacturers are now supplying warning on or inside tampon packages to alert the estimated 50 milliom American women who use tampons to the possible danger. It should be stressed, however, that TSS is a rare disease with, at most, 15 cases per 100,000 menstruating women per year.

Cases of toxic syndrome not associated with menstruation account for about 13 % of the total reported cases. Among those affected are postsurgical patients, burn patients, women who have just given birth, and patients with boils or abscesses. In a few persons the disease has occured without any apparent preexisting medical condition.

Basic Knowledge About Anemias

Anemia may be defined as a deficiency in red blood cells or hemoglobin or both. Anemia is serious because of the impaired ability of the blood to carry oxygen. As a result the cells degenerate, especially those of the nervous system. This explains such early symptoms as disinterest, fatique, and loss of energy.

There are various kinds of anemia. For example, blood loss anemia is a result of hemorrhage or the chronic loss of blood. Although the bone marrow may be able to maintain a nearly normal red blood count, the iron stores of the body become progressively decreased. Accordingly, this type of anemia is marked not only by a decrease in the number of red blood cells but also by a severe drop in hemoglobin.

Iron deficiency anemia results from the insufficient intake of iron. Although the red cell count is usually nearly normal, the concentration of hemoglobin in each cell is reduced greatly, hence the expression hypochromic anemia. This condition is quite common and is treated successfully with iron compounds such as ferrous sulfate.
