Placental Abruption
Placental abruption is a pregnancy situation in which the placenta separates, totally or partially, from the wall of the uterus before birth. The placenta is the structure that nourishes and oxygenates the baby, so its separation requires immediate attention.
Warning signs: vaginal bleeding, abdominal or back pain, intense contractions, or changes in the baby's movements.
When to seek care? With bleeding or abdominal pain during pregnancy, it is essential to seek evaluation immediately, since this is an obstetric emergency.
Which specialist treats it? The gynecologist, in the role of obstetrician, is the one who evaluates and manages this situation during pregnancy and delivery. If you are pregnant and have sudden bleeding or abdominal pain, do not wait: seek medical care without delay.
