When it comes to infectious diseases, many and various
hundreds of diseases fall into this group. These are diseases caused by various
bacteria, viruses, parasites, microorganisms. We can divide the infectious
diseases passed during pregnancy as those with direct effect and no effect on
pregnancy and baby health. For example, urinary tract infections, respiratory
tract infections, influenza, colds, diarrhea are the most common infections
during pregnancy, unless they are very severe, they are not expected to have
side effects and heal spontaneously or with antibiotic treatment. However,
there are some infections that are not dangerous for a patient who is not
pregnant, but that can seriously affect the baby when passed through during
pregnancy. For example, rubella, toxoplasma, CMV infections are mostly avoided
in a patient who is not pregnant without a life-threatening condition, but
passing them during pregnancy carries serious dangers for the baby (fetus) and
may cause various congenital anomalies in the baby. Hepatitis B infection is a
bilateral risk both for the mother and the risk of passing on to the baby.
Symptoms:
Infectious diseases can sometimes attract attention with high
fever, weakness or various other symptoms. However, some infectious diseases
can be detected incidentally during pregnancy or during tests performed without
any symptoms or complaints.
Treatment:
As a result, infectious diseases are very common diseases
during pregnancy. The treatments are also planned according to the type of
disease factor and when the disease is passed, according to the severity, the
potential to harm the baby, taking into account various criteria. In some
cases, antibiotics, pain relievers, antipyretics and other drugs can be used in
treatment, this is decided according to the benefit-harm ratio.
