Managing Thrombophilia in Pregnancy
Pregnancy is both an exciting and complex period in a woman's life. Many changes occur in your body and these changes are quite normal. However, some complications may also arise.
Thrombophilia and Pregnancy Risk
Thrombophilia means your blood tends to clot faster than normal. During pregnancy, the risk increases because the body naturally tends toward more clotting. Thrombophilia can cause the following pregnancy complications:
- Miscarriage
- Preeclampsia
- Preterm birth
- Stillbirth
- Intrauterine growth restriction
Therefore, careful thrombophilia management before and during pregnancy is extremely important.
Testing and Early Intervention
A thrombophilia test can be done both before and during pregnancy. The result determines whether you carry a thrombophilia-related risk and allows doctors to intervene early when necessary.
