E. coli in the urine during pregnancy

A very serious complication in pregnancy is the detected E. coli in the urine. Often, a woman is a carrier without knowing it. With the onset of conception, the immune system weakens and all kinds of microorganisms that have been dozing so far begin to become more active.

Therefore, as soon as a woman has registered, she must pass the bacussis to identify the E. coli in the urine of pregnant women. It is carried out twice for the entire period of gestation - in the first trimester and after 32 weeks, and if necessary, after the treatment.

Symptoms of Escherichia coli

In some cases, a woman may suspect a malfunction in her body for the following symptoms, which are complex or single:

• pain during intercourse;
• itching and burning of the genitals;
• discharge with an unpleasant odor;
• Unclear abdominal pain and dysbiosis.

During pregnancy, E. coli usually enters the body through unwashed hands, and also as a result of improper hygiene of the genitals - when a woman is washed away from behind in front, and not vice versa. Thus, pathogens that live in the intestine are inserted into the vagina, and then into the urethra and bladder.

What is dangerous Escherichia coli during pregnancy?

The probability that a child born to a woman with an E. coli will have different anomalies is very high. After all, this bacterium is transmitted through the blood and the placental barrier to the baby.

And even if there was no infection during pregnancy, the baby will get this disease, passing through the birth canal. Immediately after the birth of his body will be populated not useful, but pathogenic microflora, which in the end can even lead to a fatal outcome.
