Retroplacental Hematoma treatment in Cuauhtémoc

A retroplacental hematoma is the accumulation of blood between the placenta and the wall of the uterus during pregnancy, associated with partial detachment of the placenta. It is an obstetric situation that requires careful attention because of its possible impact on the mother and the baby.

Common symptoms: Vaginal bleeding, abdominal or uterine pain, contractions or a feeling of hardening of the belly, though in some cases the signs are subtle.

When to seek care? Any bleeding or abdominal pain during pregnancy warrants review without delay.

Which specialist treats it? The gynecologist, in the obstetric role, is the one who evaluates and follows up on this condition through clinical review and appropriate studies. If you are pregnant and have these signs, going promptly to your physician is the most prudent decision to protect your health and the baby's.
