Preconception

Pre-pregnancy preparation refers to the advance preparation made by pregnant women and their families before pregnancy. It is not only for women, but men should also participate in the pre-pregnancy preparation process. Precautions for pre-pregnancy preparation Precautions for women Adjust diet, strengthen nutrition, eat more fresh fruits, fish, lean meat, eggs, dairy products, grains, whole grains, etc., eat less greasy food, and eat less fried food. Start supplementing folic acid from the time you plan to conceive or 3 months before pregnancy, and continue to supplement for at least 3 months after pregnancy, or even until the baby is born. You can choose to take folic acid preparations specifically for pregnant women. Control weight before pregnancy. Overweight during pregnancy increases the risk of gestational diabetes and gestational hypertension. Exercise appropriately. You can choose walking, jogging, swimming and other exercise methods. Avoid contact with products containing toxic chemical agents such as organic solvents, paints, and pesticides, avoid contact with ionizing radiation, and avoid dusty places. Some drugs have teratogenic effects and should be avoided during pre-pregnancy preparation, such as ribavirin, isotretinoin, and some antibiotics. If you have been taking medications for underlying diseases (hyperthyroidism, diabetes, hypertension) before pre-pregnancy preparation, do not stop them blindly. Consult your doctor before making a decision. Maintain a good attitude and relax. Undergo pre-pregnancy check-ups to assess your physical condition. Precautions for men Adjust diet and strengthen nutrition. Avoid irregular three meals a day, eat less high-fat and high-sugar foods, and eat more meat, seafood, and whole grains. Avoid saunas or hot baths, and avoid wearing tight pants, as this can kill sperm. Exercise appropriately, but ride bicycles less often. Long-term cycling is harmful to the testicles. Avoid hazardous chemical agents, ionizing radiation, dust and other risk factors. Maintain a good attitude and relax. Undergo pre-pregnancy check-ups to assess your physical condition.

Puerperal heatstroke

Puerperal heatstroke, also known as postpartum heatstroke, is an acute heat illness that occurs in women during the puerperium (the 6-8 weeks after childbirth). It is caused by high indoor temperatures, high humidity, poor ventilation, and the mother's weakened physical condition, which prevent the timely dissipation of excess body heat and lead to impaired central thermoregulation. The affected population is postpartum women, with a higher incidence during the summer.
