Placental Disease
Pregnancy Conditions
The placenta is a vital component of every pregnancy, being the life-support system that delivers oxygen and nutrients to your baby while taking away waste. However, complications related to the placenta can pose serious risks to both mother and child and thus, expert care is required to ensure the best outcomes.
Dr Lida Anwari specialises in managing placental diseases, offering personalised care to support a healthy pregnancy and safe delivery. Whether your pregnancy usually progresses or requires closer monitoring, having a knowledgeable and experienced specialist can make all the difference.
What is Placental Insufficiency?
Placental insufficiency is when the placenta is not in a position to provide the foetus with enough oxygen and nutrients. This usually causes:
- Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR)
- Preterm birth
- Low birth weight
Symptoms may not always be apparent, making regular monitoring essential. Signs such as reduced foetal movements or abnormal results in ultrasound growth scans could indicate this condition. Ensuring the well-being of the mother and baby depends on timely identification and management of the condition.
Dr Lida Anwari provides advanced diagnostic tools and expert management to effectively address placental insufficiency, ensuring your pregnancy remains as safe as possible.
What is Placental Insufficiency?
A serious pregnancy complication, placental abruption occurs when the placenta detaches from the uterus prematurely. This separation can disrupt the baby’s oxygen and nutrient supply, causing complications such as:
- Severe vaginal bleeding
- Abdominal pain and uterine tenderness
- Preterm labour
How long can a baby survive after Placental Abruption?
Placental abruption can deprive the baby of essential oxygen and nutrients, potentially causing serious complications. The survival of an infant depends on the amount of the placenta that has separated and also its early presentation and prompt treatment.
If diagnosed early, its chances of survival are greatly improved. Emergency delivery may be required for complete abruption to save the life of the infant. Dr Lida Anwari’s expertise ensures that these emergencies are managed with precision and care, reducing risks and improving outcomes.
Why choose a specialist for Placental Care?
Placental complications require more than routine obstetric care. While general OBGYNs are skilled in managing pregnancies, a foetal medicine specialist like Dr Lida Anwari has the advanced training and experience to detect and address complex conditions early.
Even if your pregnancy is progressing normally, having a specialist involved can offer:
- Early Diagnosis: Identifying potential issues before they escalate.
- Advanced Monitoring: Using state-of-the-art tools to track foetal growth and placental function.
- Customised Plans: Develop tailored strategies for delivery and care based on your unique needs.
Choosing a specialist ensures that your pregnancy is managed comprehensively, giving you peace of mind at every stage.
Comprehensive Care for Every Pregnancy
It’s a common misconception that specialised care is only necessary for high-risk pregnancies. However, even routine pregnancies benefit from the expertise of a foetal medicine specialist.
