Answer: Ureaplasmosis is one of those infections for which a woman is screened prior to the alleged pregnancy. This must be done for two reasons. First, even a small number of ureaplasma in the urogenital tract of healthy women during pregnancy (which is a significant stress to the immune system of the future mothers) may be enhanced and lead to the development ureaplasmosis. Secondly, treat ureaplasmosis during pregnancy, especially in the early stages when it is most dangerous to the fetus and can lead to miscarriage, it is impossible due to the fact that the effect of antibiotics on the fetus in early pregnancy can be just as harmful. Therefore, when planning pregnancy, women who care about their health and the health of the future baby, care should be taken in time to "withdraw" ureaplasma from the body. What is dangerous ureaplasmosis during pregnancy? First of all, because during pregnancy hidden ureaplasmosis, usually acute, and it becomes a risk factor for premature birth. Ureaplasma often the cause of miscarriage in early pregnancy, the formation of intrauterine infection and infection of the child in childbirth. In addition, in some cases after birth ureaplasmosis becomes a cause of endometritis, an inflammation of the uterus and appendages – one of the most severe obstetric complications. With regard to the fetus, during pregnancy the infection occurs in the rarest cases, as the fruit of the placenta is safely protected, not transmission ureaplasma. However, approximately half the cases the child becomes infected during passage through the infected birth canal during childbirth. In such cases, ureaplasma detected in the genital organs of newborns, especially often in girls, or in the nasopharynx of infants, regardless of gender. If during pregnancy a woman still sick ureaplasmosis, then she should immediately seek medical attention, leading pregnancy. He will appoint the necessary tests that are required in order to confirm the diagnosis. To avoid contamination of child labor and reduce the risk of preterm birth, a pregnant woman with ureaplasmosis after 22 weeks of pregnancy prescribe antibiotics, which selects the physician, taking into account the patient's pregnancy. In addition, pregnant with ureaplasmosis prescribers, strengthen immunity in order to minimize the risk of secondary infections. At the present stage of medicine have already been successfully copes with ureaplasmosis pregnant, and the presence of Ureaplasma in pregnancy is not an indication for abortion.
