News Topical, Digital Desk : Carrying a new life in the womb is a very special and sensitive experience. During this time, a mother strives to protect her unborn child from all external dangers. But did you know that even a tiny mosquito that often escapes our attention can pose a significant threat to this protective circle?
Decreasing body strength and increasing risk of malaria
During pregnancy, a woman's body's natural ability to fight disease weakens slightly. This is why malaria infection can spread more rapidly and be more dangerous during pregnancy than it would be otherwise.
What is its effect on the baby growing in the womb?
This disease not only harms the mother's health, but also has a direct and negative impact on the unborn child's development. According to Dr. Sinha, malaria can cause several serious complications during pregnancy:
- The birth of a baby before the due date (premature delivery) .
- The birth weight of the baby is much lower than normal.
- Risk of miscarriage in some serious cases.
Recognize these signs and take immediate action.
Pregnant women should never take any symptoms they experience lightly. If you experience these symptoms, consult your doctor immediately:
- Sudden high fever.
- Feeling cold or shivering.
- Pain throughout the body .
Important measures to keep mosquitoes away
The most effective way to prevent this dangerous disease is to keep mosquitoes away. You can incorporate a few simple steps into your daily routine:
- Use mosquito net regularly while sleeping.
- Maintain complete cleanliness inside and outside the house.
- Do not let water accumulate in pots, coolers or pits around your house, because mosquitoes breed in stagnant water.
Timely treatment is most important
Doctors believe that instead of fearing this disease, we need to be vigilant. If these symptoms are identified early and medical examination and treatment are initiated immediately, both the mother and her unborn baby can be kept safe.
