Are there any side effects of taking too much oxygen during pregnancy?

If there is a lack of oxygen during pregnancy, it is very unsafe for both the expectant mother and the fetus, so people use oxygen during pregnancy** to reduce their risk. Especially when the fetus has intrauterine distress or poor placental function, and the fetus develops slowly in utero, the atmospheric pressure ** method can be used. And pregnant women should also have a regular inhalation, can not be blindly inhaled, let alone said that today inhalation tomorrow does not chew the Lord, oxygen inhalation, will change the molecules of the human body, oxygen molecules increase, is good for the body, however, if too much oxygen inhalation, it will have an impact on the retinal development of the fetus, only in accordance with a certain law to inhale, in order to achieve scientific oxygen inhalation.

If you want to inhale oxygen scientifically, you have to do it for too long, 10 to 20 minutes is better, not more than 30 minutes, after a week of continuous inhalation, the interval between one to two weeks can also be done according to the doctor's guidance. Finally, we should remind everyone that the concentration of oxygen inhalation should not be too much, and the oxygen inhalation time should not be too long, and the number of oxygen inhalation should not be too much. Pregnant women should not blindly inhale oxygen, for the health of themselves and the fetus, they must follow the doctor's guidance before taking oxygen.

Pregnant women usually go for a walk under the green trees or in the square to get fresh oxygen.

It's nothing***, you are too worried, if you are not at ease, it is best to check it, you can't be careless during pregnancy, you should pay attention to the regularity of life, don't think too much so as not to increase the burden on your heart. Guide.

Healthy people who take too much oxygen can also produce *** and even oxygen poisoning, the main manifestations are:

1. Pulmonary oxygen poisoning.

It begins to become hyperemic, itchy and itchy. Dry mouth, sore throat, cough, and retrosternal discomfort may occur; frequent coughing, retrosternal burning pain during inhalation; Severe retrosternal pain, uncontrollable cough, and decreased lung capacity have been life-threatening.

2. Cerebral oxygen poisoning.

Fibrous tremors of the frontal, eye, nose, lips, and cheek muscles may initially occur, and small muscles of the hands may also be involved; Pale complexion with a peculiar smell. This may be followed by nausea, vomiting, dizziness, sweating, salivation, and epigastric tension; Visual loss, reduced visual field, visual hallucinations, auditory hallucinations may also occur; There may also be bradycardia, palpitations, choking, tingling in the fingers (toes), and mood disturbances (worry, depression, irritability, or euphoria). This is followed by extreme fatigue, drowsiness, difficulty breathing, etc.

In rare cases, collapse may occur.

3. Ocular oxygen poisoning.

The main manifestation is retinal atrophy. Premature infants who take oxygen in the incubator for too long can cause blindness due to extensive vascular occlusion of the retina, fibroblast tissue infiltration, and postcrystalloid fibrous hyperplasia.

If the baby in the belly is hypoxic, oxygen inhalation is good for the baby, if the baby does not lack oxygen, oxygen inhalation is likely to cause oxygen poisoning.

There shouldn't be, I go to the hospital and the doctor prescribes a list to inhale oxygen, which is usually half an hour. I use Airun Pregnancy Health Oxygen at home, I suck it when I feel uncomfortable at home, and I don't suck it when I feel comfortable, and it's good for emergency.

What are the benefits of oxygen for pregnant women? The benefits of oxygen inhalation for pregnant women are to increase the oxygen content in the body, ensure the normal function of various organs, ensure the normal oxygen content in the blood of the placenta, and avoid the damage to the function of pregnant women's organs, fetal hypoxia, fetal intrauterine distress, etc. Generally, there will be no ***.

Oxygen inhalation is a first-class method that can increase the oxygen concentration in the blood of pregnant women and avoid hypoxia leading to impaired organ function of pregnant women and intrauterine hypoxia of the fetus. If there are no abnormalities in the pregnant woman or fetus, oxygen is generally not needed; If the pregnant woman has abnormal cardiopulmonary function, diabetes and other conditions that cause hypoxia, or when the fetus has hypoxia or abnormal fetal heart rate due to hypoxia of the pregnant woman, the pregnant woman can be given oxygen inhalation** to improve the function of organs or tissues and correct the intrauterine hypoxia of the fetus.

Under normal circumstances, oxygen inhalation will not cause additional damage to the human body. Although there is no ***, oxygen is not recommended for pregnant women who do not have an indication for oxygen. If oxygen is needed, pregnant women should follow the doctor's instructions to ensure the flow rate and duration of oxygen inhalation to avoid serious conditions.
