What are the hazards of hypoglycemia in pregnant women?

Pregnant women's bodies are different from other people's bodies. Because hormones will change during pregnancy, the body's resistance will also decline, and it is easy to be troubled by diseases and cannot be used casually. Hypoglycemia is a common disease in pregnant women. Let's talk about the dangers of hypoglycemia in pregnant women.

The symptoms of hypoglycemia in pregnant women are dizziness, headache, palpitation, shaking hands, excessive hunger, sweating, pale face, chills, behavioral changes or abnormalities (such as irritability, crying, irritability and aggression), numbness and tingling of lips, general weakness 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 serious, 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(50mg/dl) or the blood sugar drops too fast, the symptoms of hypoglycemia in pregnant women may appear. Hypoglycemia is common in patients receiving insulin therapy or pregnant women who have insufficient food due to hyperemesis during pregnancy. Some patients' blood sugar is not lower than 2.8mmol/L(50mg/dl), but there are 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 pregnant women have hypoglycemia, they must actively seek medical advice to avoid syncope. The common causes of hypoglycemia are excessive use of insulin or wrong injection time, insufficient diet or inability 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 baby, expectant mothers should try to avoid hypoglycemia, pay attention to a reasonable diet and increase nutrition.
