What should pregnant women with teratoma supplement?

Teratoma is an ovarian tumor, which can be divided into benign teratoma and malignant teratoma. When a person is born with a teratoma, it means that there is a tumor in the mother's body, but it is not detected, resulting in it growing in a certain part of the body when born. Therefore, prevention is very important for teratoma. Pregnant women can prevent teratoma by eating. So, what should pregnant women with teratoma supplement?

1. Timely supplementation of folic acid. Generally, folic acid supplementation should be started in the first three months of pregnancy. Folic acid tablets can be bought in general pharmacies. Doctors will also prescribe folic acid during prenatal checkups at hospitals. Folic acid can be taken throughout the pregnancy because the fetus' brain development in the mother's body must have sufficient folic acid support. If conditions permit, it can be taken until the first three months of pregnancy.

2. During pregnancy, eat high-protein and high-vitamin foods appropriately, and avoid spicy and irritating foods, such as lamb, dog meat, leeks and peppers. Do not add too many seasonings to the main ingredients, such as onions, garlic, peppers, etc. Fatty, fried, moldy and pickled foods are harmful to pregnant women and are recommended to be eaten less. In addition, you should quit smoking and drinking in time. It is best to quit smoking and drinking completely before getting pregnant, so that it is not easy for the fetus to suffer from teratoma.

In addition to food, pregnant women should also stay away from radiation, chemical plants and other environments that are not good for the fetus during pregnancy. Especially when working, they often have to face the computer. They can put some potted plants in front of the computer and go out for a walk every once in a while to breathe in the fresh air. In addition, pregnant women should have regular prenatal checkups to ensure the health of the fetus.

Not only does teratoma have a great impact on the child's physical health, but if the teratoma grows in a conspicuous place, it can easily cause a certain psychological burden on the child, making him think that he is different from others. Therefore, preventing teratoma is very important for pregnant women and should not be ignored. After the child is born, the mother should also touch the child's belly more often to see if there is a teratoma, so that it can be discovered and treated early.
