HIV During Pregnancy: Causes, Risks, and Expert Care at Harsh Hospital |
Pregnancy is a transformative journey, filled with hope and excitement. However, for HIV-positive mothers, it also comes with concerns about their health and their baby’s well-being. At Harsh Hospital, Himatnagar, under the expert guidance of Dr. Hitesh Patel, we strive to provide world-class care to ensure a healthy future for both mother and child.
Understanding HIV During Pregnancy
HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is a condition that affects the immune system, and without proper care, it can be passed from a mother to her child during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding. However, with modern medical advancements, the risk of transmission has been significantly reduced.
Causes of HIV Transmission During Pregnancy
HIV transmission can occur due to:
1️⃣ Unprotected sexual contact with an infected partner.
2️⃣ Sharing needles or syringes.
3️⃣ Receiving blood transfusions from an infected donor.
Without treatment, the virus can pass from mother to child, but this is preventable with proper medical intervention.
Treatment Options at Harsh Hospital
At Harsh Hospital, we follow globally recommended protocols to manage HIV during pregnancy. Here’s how we help:
- Early Diagnosis: We recommend routine HIV screening for all expectant mothers to identify the condition as early as possible.
- Antiretroviral Therapy (ART): Administering ART during pregnancy, delivery, and breastfeeding significantly reduces the risk of transmission to less than 1%.
- Safe Delivery Options: Depending on the patient’s condition, we guide safe delivery methods to further minimize risks.
- Postnatal Care: After delivery, we provide ART for the baby and breastfeeding guidance to ensure the newborn’s health.
