Most studies have shown that pregnant women have less common
stomach ulcers and pregnancy has an anti-ulcer effect. It is thought that the
progesterone hormone increased during pregnancy decreases the acid secretion in
the stomach and this protects the effect. Likewise, the enzyme hitaminase
secreted from the placenta is thought to contribute to reducing stomach acid.
Peptic ulcer in pregnant women causes the same complaints as
non-pregnant women: Stomach pain, burning.
Gastritis:
Gastritis is an inflammation of the mucous layer on the
lining of the stomach. Helicobacter pylori bacteria play an important role in
the formation of gastric ulcer and gastritis. Complaints are similar to stomach
ulcers.
Treatment:
In the treatment, drugs that reduce stomach acid secretion,
H2 receptor blockers and proton pump inhibitors are used. Although not all of
the acid-reducing drugs used in the treatment of stomach ulcers and gastritis,
most of them are drugs that can be used during pregnancy. If H. Pylori is
available, antibiotic treatments that are not harmful to pregnancy can be
preferred for this, or H. Pylori treatment can be left to the period after
pregnancy.
