Premature Placental Separation treatment in Cuauhtémoc

Premature separation of the placenta, known in medicine as placental abruption, occurs when the placenta partially or fully detaches from the wall of the uterus before the baby is born. It is a pregnancy situation that requires immediate attention.

Common symptoms: vaginal bleeding, abdominal or back pain, intense contractions, or a decrease in the baby's movements.

When should you see a doctor? With any bleeding or abdominal pain during pregnancy, you should seek emergency care without delay.

Which specialist treats it? The gynecologist, in the role of obstetrician, is the one who manages the pregnancy and monitors the health of the placenta. If you are pregnant and notice these signs, the priority is to report it to your doctor immediately or go to the emergency room.
