Early signs of heart disease in women

Pregnancy is an important event for the mother's body. Abnormalities encountered can be a sign of cardiovascular disease during pregnancy as well as a risk later

Recently, the American Heart Association (AHA) has given six abnormal signs of pregnancy that increase the risk of cardiovascular disease by 2-10 times (high blood pressure, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, myocardial infarction and stroke). stroke) for the rest of her life after childbirth and recommends that doctors always screen for these factors.

Please keep these six signs in mind:

* High blood pressure in pregnancy, including eclampsia, preeclampsia

* Gestational diabetes (risk of type 2 diabetes after delivery increases ten times!)

* Small-for-gestational age

* Placenta bud

* Premature birth < 37 weeks

* Miscarriage

The postpartum period is considered a golden time to screen for risk factors, identify problems that remain after birth, promptly treat and follow up. This is regarded as a crucial "fourth trimester", requiring coordination and information exchange between the patient, the obstetrician and the cardiologist.

So, next time, moms, girls, don't be surprised when the cardiologist asks about your obstetric history!
