Thyroid hormones are necessary for normal fetal development during the first 3 months.Because hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism are possible, thyroid levels should be monitored before and throughout your pregnancy.

Thyroid hormones are particularly necessary to assure healthy fetal development of the brain and nervous system during the first three months of your pregnancy since the baby depends on your hormones, which are delivered through gland in the fetus will begin to produce its own thyroid hormones.

What happens if the thyroid disease in pregnancy is untreated?

Untreated thyroid diseases during pregnancy may lead to premature birth, preeclampsia (a servere increase in blood pressure), miscarriage, and low birth weight among other problems.

Hysteroscopy is a way to look inside the uterus. A hysteroscope is a thin, telescope-like device that is inserted into the uterus through the vagina and cervix. It may help us diagnose or treat a uterine problem. It is often combined with a curettage, which samples the lining of the uterus.

Why is a hysteroscopy performed?
To diagnose certain problems, we need to look directly into the inside of the uterus.Common reasons for undergoing a hysteroscopy include the assessment of heavy periods, abnormal vaginal bleeding, post -menopausal bleeding, fibroids, polyps, or as part of the assessment of fertility. You should have a clear understanding of your reason for this surgery —— if not, please ask your doctor.

A diagnostic hysteroscopy takes approxima

What causes GDM?

When you eat, your pancreas releases insulin, a hormone that helps move a sugar called glucose from your blood to your cells, which use it for energy. During pregnancy, your placenta makes hormones that cause glucose to build up in your blood.

Prenatal testing, screening, and diagnosis are important tools to help your doctor determine, before birth, whether your fetus has any genetic disorders or congenital anomalies. Tests can be anything from amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling (CVS) to a simple blood test. These tests are especially useful to detect trisomies( genetic disorders in baby) for women who are pregnant in their 1st 15 weeks of pregnancy & also for pregnant women above 35 yrs who are at an increased risk for genetic abnormalities.
