Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Acute stabbing pain and swelling in the abdomen. The pain and swelling are caused by the release of chemicals from the fibroids as the cells die. Fever is another sign of fibroid shrinking.

I'm 29 weeks pregnant and my latest USG report shows an open internal OS with a cervix of 2.8, a funnel diameter of 6.4mm, and a funnel length of 12.8mm. I'm currently in the hospital, and I'm really worried about how risky this situation might be. Could you please help me understand what those measurements mean and what I should expect?

While your condition does carry some risks, especially for preterm birth, many women with similar conditions go on to have successful pregnancies with the appropriate treatment and monitoring. Your healthcare providers will be the best source of advice to manage this situation and minimize risks to both you and your baby. Stay in close contact with your doctor, and follow their instructions carefully.

My wife is 33 weeks pregnant and her placenta is in the upper segment, grade 2. Could this be a problem? I'm really looking for some advice.

Monitor her closely for any signs of bleeding or other complications. It is recommended to avoid activities that may increase the risk of bleeding, such as heavy lifting or sexual intercourse. In severe cases, hospitalization may be necessary to monitor the mother and baby closely. In case of any bleeding, abdominal pain, or contractions, it is important to seek immediate medical attention.
