What reason is pubic palace bottom?

summary

One of the medical terms of fundus uteri refers to the shape of the uterus, which is wide in the upper part and narrow in the lower part. The upper part is the uterine body, and the lower part is the cervix. There are fallopian tubes on both sides of the uterine body, and the upper part protrudes between the inner ends of the fallopian tubes. What reason is pubic palace bottom?

What reason is pubic palace bottom?

After urination, a tape measure was used to measure the distance from the midpoint of the superior edge of pubic symphysis to the fundus of uterus. But the measurement should not be forced, so as not to cause accuracy. The time of measuring the height of uterine fundus can be measured from 20 weeks of pregnancy, once a month and once every 36 weeks. If abnormal, the interval time can be shortened. Urinate before the examination. Take the supine position and bend the legs.

Measuring the height of the fundus of uterus can preliminarily understand the growth of the fetus in the uterus, and pregnant friends can refer to it. The height of the fundus can be measured once a week. The possibility of multiple pregnancies or polyhydramnios should be considered in patients older than month. If there is no change in the height of the uterine fundus for 2-3 consecutive weeks, or the height of the uterine fundus is significantly lower than the month of pregnancy, we should consider whether the calculation of the gestational age is wrong, or whether it is due to intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) and oligohydramnios. We should go to the hospital in time to find out the cause.

By measuring the height of the uterine fundus, we can understand the fetal growth in the uterus. In general, it reached umbilical level at 24 weeks of gestation, on the midpoint of the line between the umbilicus and xiphoid process at 32 weeks of gestation, and on the 3 transverse fingers below xiphoid process at 36 weeks of gestation. The height of the fundus of uterus can be measured once a week. The measurement method is to use a tape to measure the vertical distance from the midpoint of the upper edge of the pubic symphysis to the height of the fundus of uterus. Note that the tape should not be measured along the arc curve of the pregnant woman's abdomen. If there is no change in the height of the uterine fundus for 2-3 consecutive weeks, or the height of the uterine fundus is significantly lower than that of the month of pregnancy, there may be fetal growth restriction, oligohydramnios, or even intrauterine fetal death. If too much higher than the month of pregnancy should also go to the hospital for examination, in order to rule out excessive amniotic fluid, macrosomia, trophoblastic disease, there may be multiple pregnancy.

matters needing attention

Traditionally, the estimation of the height of the fundus of uterus is done by palpating the fundus of uterus and calculating its distance from body marks, such as pubic symphysis, umbilicus and xiphoid process. These methods do not take into account the differences in women's body shape. The most common situation is that many people report or imply that the results of these methods in measuring the height of the uterine fundus in different individuals are very rough and different.
