The character of Blood vessels carrying blood to placenta and the baby changes in pregnancy so that more blood freely flows with low pressure.
In some people, these changes donot happen and they can develop problems in the later months of pregnancy like developing high BP, low weight baby or less water content.
To prevent this, we start T. ECOSPRIN 150mg at night times daily from 12 weeks and continue till 36 weeks. It may help in ⅓rd of patients. Ultrasound uterine artery doppler can be repeated at 16 weeks.
