As we age, ovarian reserve decreases, which eventually leads to menopause. Is pregnancy after menopause possible? Should peri-menopausal women use contraception? ** **Menopause-what is it?** Menopause is the time when ovarian function ceases and a woman loses her fertility. On average, menopause occurs at 51. year of age. However, it happens that the so-called. Ovarian reserve decreases more rapidly and a woman is menopausal at age 40. According to the recommendations, menopause is diagnosed when a woman has not had a period for 12 months. Appear  then characteristic symptoms associated with hormonal changes in the female body, such as: - hot flashes, - vaginal dryness, - sleep disorders, - deterioration of well-being, - sweating, - crying. **Pregnancy after menopause-is it possible?** Lack of menstruation does not mean inovulatory cycles. For some women, menopause is a long process. Loss of fertility can be discussed only after 12 months without menstruation and hormonal testing (including assessment of FSH levels). Otherwise, pregnancy is still theoretically possible, especially if the couple does not use any contraceptive methods. Many women think that when menstruation does not appear for 2-3 months, it is equivalent to menopause and no need for protection during intercourse. Getting pregnant at peri-menopausal age, i.e. 45-50, is associated with a high risk of birth defects in the child and chromosomal abnormalities. Most gynecologists therefore recommend the use of effective methods of contraception to prevent unwanted pregnancy with an extremely high risk of complications for both the woman and the developing baby. However, it happens that menopause affects women at a younger age when it is safe to get pregnant. We are talking about women with premature expiration of ovarian function. If the disorder is detected early enough, motherhood can be ensured by egg retrieval and the use of in vitro fertilization. It is also possible to fertilize using ova from a donor (oocyte adoption). **Menopause and pregnancy-risks** As a woman ages, in addition to greater difficulty in getting pregnant, there is an increased risk of birth defects and chromosomal aberrations in the child. For example, the chance of having a child with Down syndrome in women over 45. year is 1:20, and after 49. Even 1:10. In comparison, for women aged 25-30, the risk is about 1:1000. Therefore, effective methods of contraception are necessary during the peri-menopausal period. If Parents dream of having a child and want to use in vitro fertilization, most clinics in Poland allow this option up to 49. year to reduce the risk of pregnancy complications and the development of defects in the child. **Read also: **[ **Geriatric pregnancy** ](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/jak-dbac-o-siebie-w-ciazy/ciaza-geriatryczna) --- --- title: "What stretch mark cream for pregnancy will work best?" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/pregnancy-zone-2/how-to-take-care-of-yourself-during-pregnancy/what-stretch-mark-cream-for-pregnancy-will-work-best" lang: "pl" type: "pregnancy_zone" description: "Stretch marks in pregnant women are a common affliction associated with changes in body shape and an increase in certain hormones.

Stretch marks in pregnancy appear primarily on the breasts and abdomen. It is these two parts of the body that undergo the greatest and fastest enlargement. Sometimes, however, they are also present on the buttocks, hips, thighs and even on the arms. Much depends on the individual characteristics of the body. Every mom-to-be should know what is good for stretch marks during pregnancy to effectively prevent them. ## Where do stretch marks come from during pregnancy? Pregnant women are particularly vulnerable to the appearance of stretch marks. This is primarily due to weight gain, which is inevitable. In addition, the circumference of the abdomen is increasing. This occurs gradually, but over a short period of time. Also, do not forget that the breasts are preparing for lactation. For this reason, they also become larger. The skin is unable to withstand constant stretching, so at some point the elastin and collagen fibers break down. In these areas, spindly bands appear, which is what stretch marks are. It is worth mentioning that due to hormonal changes, pregnant women’s skin is more susceptible to damage.

Ponad połowa dorosłych Polaków nie dostarcza go w wystarczającej ilości z pożywieniem[1](#przypis1), więc wydaje się, że każda przyszła mama powinna sięgnąć po suplement. Czy rzeczywiście? Jak wybrać odpowiedni magnez dla kobiet w ciąży?** ## Za co odpowiada magnez i dlaczego jest ważny w ciąży? | Za co odpowiedzialny jest magnez?Magnez jest niezbędny do prawidłowej pracy m.in. mięśni, serca i układu nerwowego. Jego odpowiednia ilość w ciąży pomaga zapobiegać bolesnym skurczom łydek i przedwczesnym skurczom macicy, wspiera rozwój układu kostnego i nerwowego dziecka oraz reguluje ciśnienie krwi mamy. Odpowiednie spożycie magnezu w czasie ciąży zmniejsza ryzyko takich problemów jak cukrzyca ciążowa, stan przedrzucawkowy, przedwczesny poród i niska masa urodzeniowa dziecka2.Czy w ciąży rośnie zapotrzebowanie na magnez? Tak, zalecane dzienne spożycie magnezu w ciąży wynosi 360 mg/dobę (u nastolatek do 400 mg), poza ciążą 310–320 mg3. Największe zapotrzebowanie na magnez organizm ma w II i III trymestrze.  | | --- | | Co jest źródłem magnezu?Dla kobiety w ciąży najlepszymi naturalnymi źródłami magnezu są m.in. pestki dyni, orzechy, kasza gryczana, rośliny strączkowe i szpinak, kakao i gorzka czekolada.Czy suplementacja magnezu w ciąży jest niezbędna?Suplementacja jest zalecana w razie stwierdzonego niedoboru, gdy dieta nie dostarcza wystarczających ilości tego pierwiastka. Większość Polek nie pokrywa tego zapotrzebowania samą dietą, niemniej najpierw zwróć uwagę na codzienny jadłospis. O suplementacji w ciąży decyduje lekarz prowadzący.Jakie są objawy niedoboru magnezu?Typowe objawy niedoboru magnezu to skurcze mięśni, zaburzenia snu, drażliwość, uczucie niepokoju, ogólne osłabienie i męczliwość, mrowienie kończyn, drżenie powiek, nudności i brak apetytu.Jaki magnez wybrać?Najlepiej preparat z chelatem aminokwasowym magnezu (np. diglicynianem, cytrynianem), który wchłania się znacznie lepiej niż najczęściej stosowane w suplementach tlenek czy węglan. Wchłanianie magnezu wspiera witamina B6. | | --- | ## Za co odpowiada magnez i dlaczego jest ważny w ciąży? Obok potasu magnez jest najważniejszym minerałem wewnątrzkomórkowym w organizmie człowieka. Aktywuje ponad 300 enzymów i uczestniczy w przeszło 600 reakcjach biochemicznych[4](#przypis4) – od syntezy białek i DNA po metabolizm energetyczny. Trudno znaleźć proces w organizmie, w którym nie pełni żadnej funkcji. W ciąży jego znaczenie jeszcze więc rośnie. **Magnez m.in.:** - **Reguluje pracę mięśni**. Podnosi próg pobudliwości nerwowo-mięśniowej, dzięki czemu działa rozluźniająco na mięśnie – zarówno szkieletowe, jak i gładkie, w tym mięsień macicy[5](#przypis5). To dlatego jego niedobór często wywołuje bolesne [skurcze łydek](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy/skurcze-lydek-w-ciazy-skad-sie-biora) (to najczęstszy objaw niedoboru), a w ciąży także nadmierną aktywność skurczową macicy. - **Wspiera układ krążenia matki**. Uczestniczy w regulacji ciśnienia krwi i pracy serca – pomaga utrzymać naczynia krwionośne w rozluźnieniu, co zmniejsza ryzyko rozwoju nadciśnienia w ciąży[6](#przypis6). Jego niedobór może się objawiać kołataniem czy zaburzeniami rytmu serca. - **Wpływa na rozwój dziecka**. Rozwijający się płód gromadzi około 8 mg magnezu dziennie – potrzebuje go do budowy kości oraz syntezy białek i DNA. Magnez uczestniczy też w kształtowaniu się układu nerwowego – ma ochronny wpływ na ośrodkowy układ nerwowy, zwłaszcza u wcześniaków. - **Dba o samopoczucie przyszłej mamy**. Magnez odgrywa kluczową rolę w prawidłowym funkcjonowaniu układu nerwowego przyszłej mamy. Jego niedobór może powodować nie tylko uciążliwe skurcze mięśni, lecz także drażliwość, problemy ze snem, uczucie niepokoju, ogólne osłabienie i męczliwość. ## Czy musisz suplementować magnez w ciąży? To zależy od diety, stanu zdrowia i przebiegu ciąży. Co na ten temat mówią aktualne wytyczne i badania naukowe? ### Polscy specjaliści nie zalecają obecnie rutynowej suplementacji magnezu w ciąży W najnowszych rekomendacjach Polskiego Towarzystwa Ginekologów i Położników dotyczących suplementacji specjaliści podkreślają, że podstawowym źródłem witamin i minerałów powinna być zbilansowana [dieta w ciąży](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/jak-dbac-o-siebie-w-ciazy/dieta-w-ciazy-produkty-bezpieczne-dla-matki-i-dziecka), a nie suplementy. **Magnezu brakuje wśród mikroskładników zalecanych do rutynowej suplementacji **dla Polek w ciąży. Również duże, uznane w nauce przeglądy badań klinicznych (analizy Cochrane’a) nie dostarczają wystarczających dowodów na korzyści suplementacji magnezu przez wszystkie ciężarne.  W pewnych przypadkach, o czym niżej, suplementacja magnezu jest jednak w ciąży wskazana. ### Pokrycie zapotrzebowania dietą bywa trudne, ale nadmierna suplementacja może zaszkodzić Dobrymi źródłami magnezu w diecie kobiet w ciąży są m.in. soja, suszone owoce, banany, kiwi, pestki dyni i słonecznika, kakao, orzechy, migdały, kiełki czy komosa ryżowa. Do codzienną jadłospisu warto też włączyć kaszę gryczaną, pełnoziarniste produkty zbożowe, zielone warzywa i wysokozmineralizowaną wodę (np. wzbogacona w magnez). Kłopot jednak w tym, że **z pożywienia wchłania się zaledwie 30–50% tego pierwiastka**, a jego przyswajanie dodatkowo utrudnia obecność w diecie fitynianów i fosforu. W efekcie niedostateczne spożycie magnezu jest powszechne.  Z drugiej strony magnezu z diety nie da się przedawkować, a z suplementów już tak – nadmierna suplementacja może powodować biegunki i osłabienie mięśniowe, a w skrajnych przypadkach poważniejsze zaburzenia. ### Możliwe korzyści suplementacji magnezu w ciąży w określonych przypadkach Badania nowsze niż wskazane wyższej analizy Cochrane’a (a więc w nich nieuwzględnione) sugerują, że suplementacja magnezu w ciąży może przynosić korzyści w konkretnych sytuacjach klinicznych, zwłaszcza u kobiet z **podwyższonym ryzykiem stanu przedrzucawkowego**** i u ciężarnych z **[**cukrzycą ciążową**](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy/cukrzyca-ciazowa), u których w badaniach obserwuje się poprawę kontroli glikemii. Decyzja o suplementacji powinna jednak należeć do lekarza prowadzącego ciążę, który oceni dietę, objawy i wyniki badań. ## Ile magnezu zażywać w ciąży? Polskie normy żywieniowe wyznaczają **zalecane dzienne spożycie magnezu** **(RDA)** dla kobiet w ciąży na poziomie: - **360 mg/dobę** – dla ciężarnych powyżej 19. roku życia, - **400 mg/dobę** – dla ciężarnych poniżej 19. roku życia. Poza ciążą RDA dla dorosłych kobiet wynosi 310–320 mg/dobę, a w okresie karmienia piersią wraca do poziomu sprzed ciąży, czyli 320 mg. **To łączne zalecane dawki magnezu – obejmują magnez zarówno z diety, jak i z suplementów**. Jeśli codzienna dieta nie pokrywa zapotrzebowania, lekarz zaleca zwykle 100–300 mg na dobę, a przy objawach niedoboru do 400. Nie przekraczaj dawek wyznaczonych przez producenta preparatu. Na kilka tygodni przed porodem lekarz zwykle zaleca przerwanie suplementacji, aby nie wpływać na naturalną aktywność skurczową macicy.

Porozmawiaj z lekarzem prowadzącym ciążę. To on najlepiej oceni, czy potrzebujesz suplementacji i określi optymalną dobową dawkę magnezu. Nie suplementuj się na własną rękę.2. Zwróć uwagę na sygnały od organizmu. Skurcze łydek, drżenie powiek, problemy ze snem, drażliwość, mrowienie rąk i stóp, ogólne zmęczenie – jeśli masz takie objawy, wspomnij o nich lekarzowi, bo mogą wskazywać na niedobór magnezu.3. Nie upieraj się na badanie magnezu z krwi, jeśli lekarz go nie zleci. We krwi znajduje się zaledwie około 1% magnezu z całego organizmu, więc prawidłowy wynik nie wyklucza niedoboru.4. Pamiętaj – suplement uzupełnia dietę, ale jej nie zastępuje. Jeśli na co dzień jesz mało zielonych warzyw, orzechów, nasion i produktów pełnoziarnistych, ryzyko niedoboru jest większe. Powiedz o tym lekarzowi, ale też pomyśl, jakie źródła magnezu możesz wprowadzić do diety. | | --- | ## Jaki magnez zażywać w ciąży? Wybieraj **formy organiczne magnezu, takie jak chelat aminokwasowy (diglicynian), cytrynian czy mleczan – każdy z dodatkiem witaminy B****6**. Te preparaty są droższe od tych z formami nieorganicznymi (tlenkiem, węglanem), ale wchłaniają się znacznie lepiej. Mają też dodatkowe zalety, np. chelat aminokwasowy jest łagodny dla przewodu pokarmowego, co w ciąży bywa ważne.  Rozpoczęcie suplementacji i wybór preparatu skonsultuj z lekarzem, ewentualnie z farmaceutą, zwłaszcza jeśli przyjmujesz inne suplementy diety – magnez może konkurować o wchłanianie np. z żelazem czy wapniem. ## Podsumowanie Magnez jest niezbędny każdemu człowiekowi, a zwłaszcza przyszłej mamie – odpowiada za prawidłową pracę mięśni i serca, regulację ciśnienia krwi, funkcjonowanie układu nerwowego oraz budowę kości i tkanek rozwijającego się dziecka. Zapotrzebowanie na ten minerał w ciąży rośnie, a przeciętna dieta często go nie pokrywa. Nie każda ciężarna powinna jednak sięgać po suplement – decyzję najlepiej podjąć z lekarzem, który w razie potrzeby dobierze odpowiednią formę i dawkę, a także poleci jakościowy preparat. ## FAQ: - **Jaki magnez dla kobiety w ciąży? ** Najlepiej wybrać formy organiczne – chelat aminokwasowy (diglicynian), mleczan lub cytrynian magnezu z dodatkiem witaminy B6. Wchłaniają się lepiej niż tlenek czy węglan i są łagodniejsze dla żołądka. - **Co wskazuje na brak magnezu?** Objawy niedoboru magnezu to m.in. skurcze mięśni, drażliwość, problemy ze snem, mrowienie kończyn i ogólne osłabienie. W celu monitorowania poziomu magnezu lekarz może zalecić badania z krwi, ale mają one ograniczoną wartość diagnostyczną. - **Dlaczego niedobór magnezu w ciąży jest niebezpieczny? ** Znaczny niedobór magnezu w ciąży zwiększa ryzyko m.in. nadmiernych skurczów macicy, porodu przedwczesnego, stanu przedrzucawkowego i niskiej masy urodzeniowej dziecka. - **Czy magnez pomaga na zawroty głowy w ciąży? ** Magnez reguluje ciśnienie krwi i pracę układu nerwowego, więc jeśli zawroty głowy wynikają z tych przyczyn, może pomóc, ale ten objaw wymaga konsultacji z lekarzem. - **Czy magnez obniża cholesterol? ** Magnez pełni ważne funkcje w metabolizmie, ale nie ma wystarczających dowodów, żeby uznać go za środek obniżający cholesterol. Jeśli masz podwyższony cholesterol w ciąży, skonsultuj się z lekarzem. ## Bibliografia: - Karowicz-Bilińska A. i in., _Stanowisko Zespołu Ekspertów Polskiego Towarzystwa Ginekologicznego w zakresie stosowania preparatu Chela-Mag B6® Mama w położnictwie i ginekologii_, [https://ptgin.pl/sites/scm/files/2021-09/09.2011%20-%20W%20TRAKCIE%20AKTUALIZACJI%20-%20Stosowanie%20preparatu%20Chela-Mag%20B6%C2%AE%20Mama%20w%20po%C5%82o%C5%BCnictwie%20i%20ginekologii.pdf](https://ptgin.pl/sites/scm/files/2021-09/09.2011%20-%20W%20TRAKCIE%20AKTUALIZACJI%20-%20Stosowanie%20preparatu%20Chela-Mag%20B6%C2%AE%20Mama%20w%20po%C5%82o%C5%BCnictwie%20i%20ginekologii.pdf) (dostęp 14.04.2026). - Krawczyk P., _Rola wybranych składników mineralnych w ciąży_ w: _Wybrane aspekty opieki pielęgniarskiej i położniczej w różnych specjalnościach medycyny.

Labor contractions are a symptom of the beginning of the first stage of labor. They properly appear between 38. a 42. week of pregnancy. Sometimes they also happen earlier, in which case it is referred to premature birth. Birth contractions are accompanied by other signals from the body. These include expulsion of [the mucus plug](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/kalendarz-ciazy/czop-sluzowy-jak-jest-jego-rola-podczas-ciazy), back pain, rupture of the fetal membranes and leakage of amniotic fluid. ## What do labor contractions look like? Uterine contractions are needed for the baby to pass through the birth canal. Under their influence, the muscles of the uterus are shortened, thus shrinking this organ. They also cause the cervix to dilate. When the opening reaches 10 centimeters, the second stage of labor begins. Birth contractions start in the upper part of the uterus and head downward. They have several distinctive features: - occur regularly, - Their duration is being extended, - Over time, they appear more and more frequently. Initially, contractions occur every 10-30 minutes. They last about 40 seconds. After several hours, the pregnant woman already feels them every 5-7 minutes. Then the duration of one of them is up to 90 seconds. At the end of the first stage of labor, contractions occur every 2 minutes. A characteristic feature of labor contractions is pain. It begins in the upper abdomen and descends toward the bottom. It often radiates to the spine (in the lumbosacral region), but also to the groin and thighs. At first it is not too annoying, but over time it becomes much more severe.

Birth contractions are recognized mainly by the fact that they are regular. They do not tend to subside over time. On the contrary, they are getting stronger, appearing more frequently and lasting longer. The pregnant woman should start counting them and report to the hospital in a timely manner. [![THE SOURCE WHAT IT COSTS v2](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/SRODTEKSTOWY_ILE_TO_KOSZTUJE_v2.png)](https://www.pbkm.pl/oferta/cena-pobrania-i-przechowywania-komorek-macierzystych) ## How should labor contractions be counted? Counting labor contractions is not complicated. Every pregnant woman should know how to do it. This is an indicator of when to go to the hospital. With this skill, certain abnormalities can also be recognized. A stopwatch is needed to count labor contractions. The pregnant woman should measure the duration of one of these – from the time the pain in the upper abdomen appears until it subsides. Also important is how long the interval between each contraction lasts. Smartphone apps for pregnant women can help with the counting. ## When should you go to the hospital? A very important issue is when to go to the hospital. Do not appear at the medical facility immediately after sensing the first labor contractions. At this stage it is still too early for this (the exception is worrying symptoms, such as bleeding from the genital tract or leakage of green fetal waters). Instead, notify your midwife and follow her instructions. You need to report to the hospital when contractions occur every 7-10 minutes.

However, there are quite a few ways to alleviate them. Each pregnant woman should find one that is most effective in her case.The mother-to-be can perform relaxation exercises. It is worth using a gym ball for this. [Proper breathing](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/oddychanie-podczas-porodu-jak-prawidlowo-dotleniac-siebie-i-dziecko) is important – the exhalation should be twice as long as the inhalation. A warm bath can help, as water at a higher temperature relaxes muscles. Many women are helped by a lumbar massage performed by a partner. It is important to remain calm, as stress exacerbates pain. --- --- title: "Is Apap during pregnancy safe?

How to apply it? ## What is paracetamol? Apap is a painkiller that Poles are very likely to reach for in emergency situations because of its availability and effective action. It contains in its composition paracetamol, which is a substance that has been known and used for many years. It has** analgesic and antipyretic properties, and also shows the ability to block the production of prostaglandins **(hormones responsible for pain and inflammation) in the nervous system. The mother-to-be should be aware that the paracetamol present in Apap crosses the placenta. This means that the compound enters the baby’s bloodstream. ## Paracetamol and pregnancy. What should you keep in mind? Many pregnant women wonder what the safety of using this substance is. This drug can be taken during any trimester, if necessary. It is sometimes advisable to limit its dosage during the third trimester of pregnancy, as well as during breastfeeding. Nevertheless, the** decision whether a woman should take it or not must be made by a doctor.** This is because only he is in a position to assess the therapeutic benefits and the potential risk of harm to the fetus. For this reason, the use of medications and dietary supplements must always be consulted, especially during the first trimester of pregnancy, as this is when all of the baby’s major organs are developing and there is also the greatest risk of miscarriage. Apap in pregnancy crosses the placenta, but there is no indication that it can adversely affect the developing baby in the uterus, provided that it **is** **used under **the **guidance of a doctor, in a low dose and for a short period of time. **It is advisable for the mother-to-be to reach for other (natural, home) methods of pain relief first. The drug should be taken only when they prove ineffective.

How much paracetamol can you take during pregnancy? The dosage should be determined by the doctor. It is advisable for the pregnant woman to use the lowest effective dose. It is possible to take** 2 tablets, or 1 g of paracetamol**, at one time**.** After 4 hours, the dose can be repeated, albeit only if the ailment has reappeared. The mother-to-be should also remember **not to take the drug Apap for more than 5 days** (3 days in the case of fever) – unless the doctor decides otherwise. ## Indications for the use of Apap during pregnancy Taking paracetamol during pregnancy must be justified by specific ailments, which include: - migraine pains, - Tooth, muscle, joint and bone pain; - sore throat, - headache, - fever, - neuralgia. A woman** may need pain treatment ** during pregnancy** if she has suffered an injury **(such as a broken bone) or undergone surgery. Often pain is one of the symptoms of pregnancy-related ailments – we are talking about painful contractions of the uterus (the so-called ” [preliminary contra](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/jak-dbac-o-siebie-w-ciazy/bol-porodowy)ctions”), stretching of ligaments, overloading of the spine due to changes in the body’s posture and center of gravity.

What is the use of paracetamol like? It is recommended that the drug with this substance be **taken on** an empty stomach, as this allows it to be absorbed better. The tablet should be sipped with water (at least half a glass). It is worth remembering that fruit juices (especially grapefruit juice), tea, coffee, carbonated drinks can not be used for this purpose. Paracetamol is available in various forms.** The most popular are coated tablets.** You can also buy effervescent tablets to dissolve in water. Any pregnant woman should be cautious if she uses compounded preparations for the common cold, as they also mostly contain paracetamol. ## Paracetamol in pregnancy – side effects Even the proper dosage of paracetamol during pregnancy can carry some consequences. A Danish group of researchers at the University of Copenhagen led by David Kristensen is sounding the alarm that **use of the substance sometimes increases a child’s risk of developing ADHD**, as well as some developmental disorders, such as autism. They published their findings in the journal Nature Reviews Endocrinology. In contrast, in the US, the consolations of 130,000 women who used Apap were examined for excretory and genital organs. It turned out that male newborns were more likely to have undescended testicles, plus they entered puberty earlier. Nevertheless, at this point, **there is** still **no conclusive data to determine whether taking paracetamol can actually be harmful** to the fetus. This is because the methodology of conducting the aforementioned studies and their results are considered by some scientists to be questionable and unreliable. ## What instead of paracetamol? What drugs to watch out for? Paracetamol, compared to [other painkillers](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/jak-dbac-o-siebie-w-ciazy/jakie-leki-sa-bezpieczne-w-ciazy), is relatively safe. It is recommended by the Polish Society of Gynecologists and **Obstetricians** for good reason – **of course, they urge you to take paracetamol only when necessary and in the smallest possible doses.** They also stress to be wary of other drugs with similar effects, which can pose a serious risk to the fetus. We are talking about medications that contain in their composition such substances as, among others: - acetylsalicylic acid, - ibuprofen, - metamizole, - indomethacin, - nimesulide, - diclofenac, - naproxen, - ketoprofen. Every woman should be aware that during pregnancy, some medications cannot be used at all – including those preparations that are commonly available without a prescription. Although paracetamol is the safest painkiller, non-threatening to an adult, it **can have negative effects on the developing baby in utero**. For this reason, it is necessary to carefully read the package insert and consult your doctor or pharmacist. ## FAQ: - **What is paracetamol?** It is an active substance that exhibits analgesic, antipyretic and, to a lower degree, anti-inflammatory effects. Paracetamol has been used since 1955, and many doctors consider it one of the safer drugs of its kind. - **How do the symptoms of an Apap overdose manifest themselves?** The first symptoms are lower abdominal pain, nausea, anorexia and restlessness. Although it is a generally available drug, one should be careful with it, as it is easy to overdose. If led to this situation, it can result in serious liver and fetal damage and even death. - **Paracetamol – is it safe for pregnant women?** A sufficiently low dose of paracetamol taken at one time is not a danger to either the woman or her baby. However, it should not be abused, because this substance crosses the placenta, entering the bloodstream of the fetus. --- --- title: "Ectopic pregnancy – symptoms and course of ectopic pregnancy" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/pregnancy-zone-2/diseases-during-pregnancy/ectopic-pregnancy-symptoms-and-course-of-ectopic-pregnancy" lang: "pl" type: "pregnancy_zone" description: "Ectopic pregnancy develops when the embryo nests not in the uterine cavity, but outside it - in the fallopian tube, ovary, abdominal cavity.

Ectopic pregnancy (Latin: _graviditas extrauterina_), or ectopic pregnancy, is a condition in which **a fertilized egg cell, an embryo, nests outside the mucosa of the uterine cavity**. The egg cell and sperm meet in the fallopian tube. Further the fertilized cell should move to the uterine cavity, where it will implant (implant) and further develop the fetus. Sometimes, however –** the **risk is estimated at 1 in 100 –** the embryo remains in the fallopian tube or nests in yet another location **outside the uterine cavity. An increased risk of ectopic pregnancy is observed in women between 25. a 30. year of age. We also know the factors that promote this (about them later in the article). Ectopic pregnancy usually ends in miscarriage, but without medical intervention it can threaten a woman’s health and life – it is estimated to be responsible for 10-15% of deaths in pregnant women, among others. As a result of severe hemorrhage from a ruptured fallopian tube. This damage can be caused by an embryo that enlarges and is not removed in time. ## Where can an ectopic pregnancy develop? - **In the fallopian tube**. **This is where most ectopic pregnancies develop**, according to estimates, about 97%. The embryo can nest in any part of the fallopian tube. As it enlarges, it stretches the walls of the fallopian tube and can eventually lead to its rupture. Then there is a risk of internal hemorrhage, which will spill into the abdominal cavity, endangering the woman’s life.  - **In the abdominal cavity**. The embryo enters the peritoneal cavity, or between the internal organs. This can cause abdominal pain (as the enlarging embryo irritates the peritoneum – the membrane lining the abdominal cavity). Such an ectopic pregnancy also involves risks to the woman’s health and life. However, it is very rare (about 1.4%). - **In the ovary or cervix**. The egg cell can become fertilized and implant in the ovary (up to about 3% of cases) or, extremely rarely, in the cervix. Ovarian pregnancy usually lasts a very short time. Both forms of pregnancy also carry the risk of internal bleeding, which is dangerous to a woman’s health and life.  ## How does an ectopic pregnancy manifest itself? Symptoms of ectopic pregnancy in its first weeks **are** usually **similar to those of a normal, physiological uterine pregnancy – these include stopping menstruation, breast soreness**, nausea, fatigue or changes in appetite. In the third week of pregnancy, a woman may begin to feel a strong sense of anxiety and severe lower abdominal pain. The pains may involve only one side of the abdomen, or radiate up to the shoulder. Sometimes they are also accompanied by a feeling of pushing on the stool. **Suspicion of ectopic pregnancy** **is raised by bleeding from the genital tract**, which resembles a period (spotting may also occur). Sometimes a woman complains of low blood pressure, increasing heart rate and pale skin combined with cold sweats, and sometimes there are fainting or fainting spells. These symptoms may be indicative of a developing shock from a ruptured fallopian tube. Any worrying symptom should be consulted with a gynecologist. Severe pain, bleeding from the genital tract, fainting, accelerated heart rate or cold sweats are symptoms that require urgent medical intervention. ## Will a pregnancy test detect an ectopic pregnancy? It is difficult to answer this question unequivocally: in the case of ectopic pregnancy, the **probability of receiving a positive pregnancy test result is 50%**. Standard platelet tests detect the presence of beta-hCG hormones in the urine, which are secreted after implantation of a fertilized egg. If it is an ectopic pregnancy, their levels often rise more slowly compared to a normal pregnancy.  Both positive and negative tests when [pregnancy symptoms](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/kalendarz-ciazy/objawy-ciazy-przed-wykonaniem-testu) are present require confirmation with an [ultrasound](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/jak-dbac-o-siebie-w-ciazy/obowiazkowe-usg-w-ciazy) by a gynecologist. If the **beta-hCG** level **is high, but ultrasound tests do not show the presence of an embryo in the uterine cavity, there is a high probability of ectopic pregnancy**. ## How is an ectopic pregnancy diagnosed? In the case of ectopic pregnancy, it is extremely important to diagnose it quickly, because this reduces the risk of the appearance of a threat to the woman’s life and health, and makes it possible to undertake the least invasive – such as pharmacological – treatment. A positive [pregnancy test](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/jak-dbac-o-siebie-w-ciazy/kiedy-najwczesniej-zrobic-test-ciazowy), a negative result, but with the cessation of menstruation or other symptoms of pregnancy, any abnormality in the course of pregnancy or suspicion of ectopic pregnancy should be **consulted with a gynecologist as soon as possible**.  The diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy is usually made by the specialist, who usually begins by interviewing the patient. **Subsequently, he performs a transvaginal ultrasound and orders the determination of beta-hCG levels in the blood**. The presence of beta-hCG confirms pregnancy, while the absence of a pregnancy follicle in the uterus confirms ectopic pregnancy. If the ultrasound does not allow you to draw a clear conclusion, and the beta-hCG level is low, the doctor may decide to perform an endometrial biopsy – taking a slice of the endometrium. The histopathologist evaluates the material for the presence of villi – their absence can also indicate an ectopic pregnancy. Sometimes an abdominal laparoscopy (insertion of a small camera) is still performed, under general anesthesia.  **An abnormal increase in the concentration of beta-hCG in the blood **is characteristic of endometrial pregnancy – **it happens much more slowly**. With normal development of early intrauterine pregnancy, its level doubles every 48 hours. ## Are there any chances of delivering an ectopic pregnancy? An ectopic pregnancy **cannot develop properly **–** so there is no chance of maintaining it or delivering it **–** and poses a threat to **the woman’** s life **. Sometimes it disappears on its own, but unfortunately, in a large proportion of cases it ends in miscarriage, which can be dangerous to health and an immediate threat to life. It is necessary to **treat an ectopic pregnancy, which involves its removal** – the method is chosen depending on, among other things. From the size of the embryo. Modern diagnostic equipment and medical developments make it possible to detect most ectopic pregnancies early, before complications occur that can threaten a woman’s life and health, such as rupture of the fallopian tube, i.e. severe pain, profuse hemorrhage and symptoms indicative of developing shock: fainting, accelerated heart rate or cold sweats. Rupture of the fallopian tube and internal hemorrhage require immediate intervention. The embryo nested in an abnormal place can also not be transplanted into the uterine cavity in any way, and only here it has the right conditions for development, only in the uterus through the umbilical cord can the fetus take in the necessary nutrients and oxygen.  ## How is an ectopic pregnancy treated? Ectopic pregnancy at the initial stage, if the diameter of the embryo does not exceed 3 cm and no concomitant intrauterine pregnancy **is** found, **is usually treated with pharmacological methotrexate, which inhibits its development**.  The drug is usually administered by intramuscular injection or directly into the pregnancy follicle. And in many patients treated this way, the need for surgery is then avoided. Unfortunately, sometimes even after drug treatment and when it is no longer possible, because the embryo is larger and the patient’s condition is difficult, it is necessary to **remove the pregnancy surgically or endoscopically**. **Currently, laparoscopy is most commonly used for this purpose**. It involves making a small incision through which a camera and surgical instruments are inserted.  In the most difficult cases, a woman’s life is saved by excision of the fallopian tube – while it is usually not necessary, and the removal of an ectopic pregnancy need not derail further efforts to have a child. ## What are the causes of ectopic pregnancy? Ectopic pregnancy can develop without an established cause: so it is often impossible to pinpoint a clear cause. However, medicine has learned the factors that increase such risks. One of the most common are **hypertrophic** lesions **and adhesions that result from inflammation of the adnexa, fallopian tubes, ovaries and surrounding tissues**, especially if they are chronic or not properly treated. Congenital defects of the fallopian tubes – such as fusion or stenosis – and sexually transmitted infections like gonorrhea and chlamydia, as well as endometriosis and hypertrophied uterine mucosa also pose a high risk. It is also not uncommon for problems with proper embryo implantation to be influenced by past gynecological and pelvic surgeries. The risk is higher in women who** use IUDs**. **Unfortunately, risk factors also include previous miscarriages and abortions and ectopic pregn**ancies. One ectopic pregnancy increases the likelihood of the same problem in the future by up to 15%. Can ectopic pregnancy be prevented? Unfortunately, the only way is to pay attention to risk factors, especially not ignoring inflammation of the appendages or other infections that can cause adhesions and lesions.  ## What after an ectopic pregnancy ends? What about another pregnancy?  After treatment of ectopic pregnancy, strictly follow the doctor’s instructions. Unfortunately, as we mentioned, ectopic pregnancy increases the risk of developing ectopic pregnancy again, but it can also lead to **complications of intrauterine pregnancy**. If the fallopian tube has not been removed, an ectopic pregnancy does not necessarily derail further efforts to have a child, but it is certainly worth postponing them somewhat. It all depends on the woman’s health, her fertility and the reasons for the appearance of an ectopic pregnancy, but in such a situation,**[re-pregnancy](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/kalendarz-ciazy/ciaza-po-poronieniu-teczowe-dzieci) ****must be consulted in detail with **the attending**physician **.  ## FAQ: - **How does an ectopic pregnancy manifest itself?** The symptoms of ectopic pregnancy are initially the same as those of a normal pregnancy, that is, it is the stoppage of menstruation, breast soreness, nausea and fatigue. From about 3. Week of pregnancy may be a feeling of anxiety and severe abdominal pain, including unilateral. When the pregnancy ruptures, there may be hemorrhage from the reproductive tract. - **What are the risks of ectopic pregnancy?** The main complications of ectopic pregnancy are internal hemorrhages, which are dangerous to health and threaten the life of the woman. As the pregnancy develops in the fallopian tube, the growing embryo stretches its walls – it can lead to a rupture of the fallopian tube, which often necessitates its removal. - **Where can an ectopic pregnancy develop?** In most cases, ectopic pregnancy occurs in the fallopian tube, and less often it is in the ovary, cervix or peritoneal cavity (abdominal cavity). --- --- title: "Stress in pregnancy – ways to deal with the enemy" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/pregnancy-zone-2/how-to-take-care-of-yourself-during-pregnancy/stress-in-pregnancy-ways-to-deal-with-the-enemy" lang: "pl" type: "pregnancy_zone" description: "Stress during pregnancy is like a constant bombardment for the fetus.

Nervous tension, especially for stress in the 1st trimester of pregnancy, can result in reduced birth weight at birth. Stress in pregnancy also affects pregnancy through the effect it has on blood vessels, which are not properly oxygenated and nourished under stress. If adequate oxygen and nutrients are not delivered to the placenta through the capillaries, the placenta may not develop properly. Another result of high stress during pregnancy can be motor system impairments in the newborn child. Often such children can be much more irritable and restless, as well as crying in the first two years of life. There are indications that the constant stress of pregnancy is linked to the development of Down syndrome, however, this has not been fully confirmed. The results of another study of mothers whose pregnancy fell during the unfortunate period of World War II showed that crying and stress during pregnancy promoted the birth of children with a different sexual orientation. However, these theories remain controversial. ## How to recognize chronic stress in yourself The disastrous effects of stress on pregnancy have been known in medicine for decades. One-time severe stress during pregnancy is not yet a bad thing. However, if it begins to accompany a woman every day, she should immediately see a therapist or psychologist. Symptoms of excessive stress in pregnancy include frequent headaches, increased heart rate, increased sweating, deepened inhalation and exhalation, [diarrhea](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy/biegunka-a-ciaza-czy-biegunka-moze-byc-objawem-ciazy-i-co-stosowac-na-biegunke-w-ciazy) and nausea, muscle aches and a stabbing sensation in the chest. ## Relaxation methods during pregnancy There are several proven methods for coping with how not to stress during pregnancy. Of course, these are not universal tips, and it all depends on the source of the stress. If your stress is the result of the death of a loved one or a very difficult life situation, you should consult a specialist. Stress at the beginning of pregnancy can be minimized by several means. First of all, sometimes the best solution is to talk to a trusted person, a friend or a mother who, being an experienced mother, already has all the pregnancy experience behind her. In order to free your thoughts from worries, it is worth going to the cinema (preferably to a comedy) with a loved one – then the stress level during pregnancy will be significantly reduced. Women expecting a baby in situations of mild stress also recommend warm (but not hot) baths surrounded by scented candles or a visit to a relaxing massage (some spa offerings have treatments dedicated to moms-to-be). Note that popular “cheer-ups” like candy or wine in pregnant women are prohibited. First of all, a sudden rise in blood sugar will not go unnoticed by the fetus. The harmfulness of alcohol at any stage of pregnancy probably does not need to be specially informed, it causes serious disorders in the development of the child’s nervous system.

What does the treatment look like? A general urine test in pregnancy is a basic and mandatory laboratory test that a pregnant woman should go for every month and whenever she develops worrying symptoms: fever, abdominal pain, urinary problems. The test makes it possible to detect diabetes, urinary tract infections, kidney disease and eclampsia, which is evidenced by, among other things. proteinuria in pregnancy. ## Urine protein in pregnancy – norms Protein in the urine during pregnancy does not always mean a pathological condition. This substance is also present under normal conditions. However, its amount is negligible – usually no more than 150 mg. Since laboratory tests are unlikely to be sensitive to such a small dose, a specific value is not given on the result of a general urine test. Instead, you may find “protein in urine is not present” or the “(-)” sign. Protein in urine during pregnancy can be slightly elevated and as high as 250 mg. This is a physiological situation caused by changes in kidney function, and sometimes by exercise, [stress](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/jak-dbac-o-siebie-w-ciazy/stres-w-ciazy-sposoby-radzenia-sobie-z-wrogiem), elevated body temperature or a protein-rich diet. In this situation, the annotation on the result “trace amounts of protein in the urine” in pregnancy should not be alarming. On the other hand, the information “protein present” is an indication of daily urine collection. Accurate urine protein values can be determined during a daily urine collection. This is a test where urine from 24 hours is collected into one container, then mixed and 100 ml is cast for laboratory testing. Urine protein standards in pregnancy: - >150 mg per day – normal condition, - 150-250 mg per day – physiological proteinuria, - >300 mg per day – abnormal condition. ## What does elevated urine protein in pregnancy mean? Extended diagnosis and treatment is required for proteinuria in pregnancy if the protein value exceeds 300 mg. Possible reasons for this condition are: - [urinary tract infection](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy/objawy-i-leczenie-zapalenia-pecherza-w-ciazy), - Pre-eclampsia or eclampsia, - Kidney damage due to diabetes or hypertension, - glomerular diseases. The result of the urine test should always be shown to the doctor, who will order additional tests if necessary. Based on these, he will decide on further proceedings. ## Proteinuria in pregnancy vs. eclampsia Proteinuria in pregnancy that exceeds 300 mg and the finding of elevated blood pressure (above 140/90 mmHg) on a double examination is indicative of preeclampsia. Abnormalities are first diagnosed in women after 20 weeks of pregnancy. This is a dangerous condition that requires close monitoring, as it can lead to eclampsia – tonic-clonic convulsions and coma. The cause of preeclampsia is not well understood. ## Protein in urine during pregnancy and kidney damage Elevated protein in urine during pregnancy can also indicate a urinary tract infection. This is a complication of the presence of microorganisms in the urinary tract. Initially, the disease runs its course without any complaints. However, it can cause kidney failure and can also lead to premature labor. ## How to treat protein in urine during pregnancy? Protein in urine during pregnancy, the amount of which exceeds 300 mg, requires treatment. Therapeutic management depends on the cause of the abnormality, as it should be remembered that proteinuria is not a disease, but only a symptom. Treatment of proteinuria in pregnancy, which is caused by a urinary tract infection, requires antibiotic therapy. The mother-to-be should not be afraid of taking an antibiotic, as the doctor chooses one that is safe for the fetus. On the other hand, a woman diagnosed with pre-eclampsia requires monitoring – regular blood pressure measurements and laboratory tests are important.   See also: [Why is a urine test done during pregnancy?](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/jak-dbac-o-siebie-w-ciazy/w-jakim-celu-wykonuje-sie-badanie-moczu-w-ciazy-jak-sie-do-niego-przygotowac) --- --- title: "Does coughing during pregnancy harm the baby?" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/pregnancy-zone-2/diseases-during-pregnancy/does-coughing-during-pregnancy-harm-the-baby" lang: "pl" type: "pregnancy_zone" description: "As a result of hormonal changes during pregnancy, moms-to-be are highly susceptible to infections.

Fortunately, due to the immunity produced in the past in a mother who has undergone smallpox or been vaccinated, infection during pregnancy is rare. ## What does smallpox look like in pregnant women? Symptoms, course of disease Smallpox in pregnant women is characterized by a severe course. Infection occurs via the droplet route when an infected person in close proximity sneezes or [coughs](https://www.pbkm.pl/en/pregnancy-zone-2/diseases-during-pregnancy/does-coughing-during-pregnancy-harm-the-baby). Contact with smallpox during pregnancy usually affects women caring for children. If they become infected, they can pass the pathogen across [the placenta](/?pregnancy_zone_category=lozysko-po-porodzie-wydalanie-i-badanie-po-porodzie). Fortunately, this type of situation is relatively rare due to the immunity produced in the mother after passing a disease in the past or as a result of vaccination. Smallpox during pregnancy initially manifests as fever, general weakness, elevated body temperature, headache and abdominal pain. After 2-3 days, there are flare-ups of an itchy rash on the face and torso and extremities. The skin lesions evolve from macules, through papules from a few millimeters to 1 centimeter in diameter, vesicles, pustules and scabs. Skin eruptions tend to dry up and absorb, but often leave behind discoloration and scarring. Once a woman has survived an attack of the virus, it remains in her body in a lethal, or dormant, state for the rest of her life. Reactivation can occur in the form of hemiplegia and manifest itself in the affected dermatome (an area of skin, sensory supplied by a specific spinal nerve).

Complications, prognosis Smallpox in pregnancy is usually associated with dangerous complications for both the woman and the unborn child. Depending on the trimester, it can cause different complications. The mother-to-be most often experiences pneumonia, while the consequences for the baby can be more dangerous. Smallpox in the first trimester is particularly dangerous, and can even lead to the death of the embryo. The virus also poses the risk of a variety of malformations and disorders most often involving the nervous system, limb deformities, skin scarring or visual defects. Equally dangerous is smallpox during pregnancy just before termination and during the postpartum and lactation periods. It then poses a risk of transmitting the virus to the child, but also manifests more dangerous symptoms than usual, such as shortness of breath, coughing, post-rash scarring, susceptibility to bacterial infections and even sepsis, meningitis, thrombocytopenia or nephritis and hepatitis. ## Treatment of smallpox in pregnancy Smallpox in pregnancy requires immediate treatment. Treatment of the disease is determined by the trimester in which the infection occurred. First of all, pharmacological treatment of the pregnant mother with antiviral preparations that inhibit the multiplication of the pathogen is recommended, including in the situation of perinatal infection. In the case of infection in the last trimester, immunoglobulins targeting chickenpox and shingles are administered to the newborn. Topical antihistamines are recommended for itching and skin lesions, as well as baths with potassium permanganate or baking soda. Preventive therapy is also given to high-risk women, i.e. ladies who are in contact with a sick person, did not go through smallpox in childhood and were not vaccinated against it. In the case of a disease such as smallpox, treatment is provided in an outpatient setting. Hospitalization is necessary only if additional symptoms appear, such as from the respiratory and digestive systems, spotting or bleeding from the genital tract. --- --- title: "What is an anterior placenta?

Does it pose a risk to the child? The placenta is an organ that is formed during pregnancy. They are formed by the endometrium along with the outer layer of cells surrounding the embryo (chorionic villi). It performs very important functions: it allows gas exchange between the blood of mother and baby, provides essential nutrients and antibodies, removes unnecessary metabolic products, and produces hormones (including estrogen, progesterone and chorionic gonadotropin). Sometimes complications are observed on the part of this organ, which pose a threat to pregnancy. One of them is the placenta previa.  ## What is an anterior placenta? Placenta previa is a situation in which there has been an abnormal placement of the placenta in the uterus. Under normal conditions, it should be located on the wall of this organ. However, it sometimes takes place (completely or partially) in the lower part of the uterus – in the area of the internal cervical outlet. An anterior placenta affects approx. 1% of all pregnancies. Due to the location, a distinction is made: - Centrally anterior placenta – the placenta completely covers the inner outlet of the cervix; - Partially anterior placenta – only part of the inner cervical outlet is covered; - marginal placenta anterior – the placenta is connected to the cervical outlet only by the edge; - Lateral placenta prolapsus – the placenta is positioned low, but does not meet the internal outlet of the cervix.

Instead, the factors that increase the risk of this complication are known. Among them are listed: - multifetal pregnancy, - A pregnancy complicated by malformations of the child, - The occurrence of an anterior placenta in a previous pregnancy, - Undergoing a uterine curettage procedure, - Termination of previous pregnancies by cesarean section, - smoking cigarettes. It is also believed that the chances of placenta previa are higher in women who have had several pregnancies. This is associated with changes in the endometrium where previous placentas have implanted. They prevent the organ from growing again in the same place. ## Precursor placenta – symptoms Symptoms of placenta previa most often appear around. 32-34. One week of pregnancy. The first is bleeding from the genital tract. It is not very abundant and painless. Unpleasant discomfort (pain, significant blood loss) is only accompanied by subsequent bleeding. ## Management of placenta previa A woman who observes symptoms of placenta previa in herself should immediately see a doctor. This abnormality can be detected by ultrasound examination. Transvaginal and internal examinations are not advisable. The management of placenta previa depends on several factors – especially the age of the pregnancy and the severity of the symptoms. When the child is not yet capable of independent survival, conservative treatment is recommended. The pregnant woman should lead a frugal lifestyle, give up work, lie down and remain under close medical observation. Sometimes hospitalization and medication are required. A carried pregnancy most often ends with a cesarean section. --- --- title: "Biochemical pregnancy – characteristics, symptoms and causes of early embryo miscarriage" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/pregnancy-zone-2/diseases-during-pregnancy/biochemical-pregnancy-characteristics-symptoms-and-causes-of-early-embryo-miscarriage" lang: "pl" type: "pregnancy_zone" description: "A biochemical pregnancy is one that is lost at the stage of implantation of the embryo in the uterus.

At this stage, there is no attempt to sustain it. However, there is no contraindication for a woman to become pregnant again soon. ## What is a biochemical pregnancy? A biochemical pregnancy is called a miscarriage at a very early stage of pregnancy, specifically before the 6th week. In general, it is usually the loss of a pregnancy before or shortly after implantation of the embryo in the uterus. Very often such a pregnancy is called a biochemical miscarriage, because its presence can only be determined by a test that determines the level of pregnancy hormone in the blood. Many women are unaware of the existence of pregnancy, because in the initial stage it does not manifest itself with any characteristic symptoms. The only notable symptom is the absence of menstruation, which does not always prompt the patient to take a pregnancy test. It is, in addition to testing the level of pregnancy hormone in the blood, the only way to confirm that fertilization has occurred. ## Biochemical pregnancy – causes of miscarriage  Biochemical pregnancies are quite common, occurring in about 60 or even 70% of patients. Most of them live with the knowledge that they had delayed menstruation. The most common cause of miscarriage at this early stage is embryonic malformation, but the loss can also occur due to other factors, such as sudden physical exertion, inappropriate lifestyle and addictions. Abnormalities in the structure of the reproductive tract or scarring from abdominal or genitourinary surgeries can also be a reason for biochemical pregnancy. ## How does a biochemical pregnancy manifest itself? A woman who became pregnant and lost it before the sixth week does not experience any particularly characteristic symptoms. The only symptom that can indicate fertilization is the absence of menstruation. If the patient is trying to have a baby, she will certainly take a urine pregnancy test or a test to determine serum levels of chorionic gonadotropin. When it turns out to be a biochemical pregnancy, she may be disappointed. Biochemical miscarriage is manifested by sudden bleeding or spotting from the genital tract, despite confirmation of pregnancy. A woman feels as if she is having a more intense period. Spotting or bleeding is accompanied by [abdominal pain](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy/przyczyny-objawy-i-leczenie-bolu-brzucha-w-ciazy-co-na-bol-brzucha-w-ciazy). In such situations, it is not necessary for a woman to stay in a hospital ward. The gynecologist only orders her to repeat the chorionic gonadotropin test. When the hormone drops to very low levels, it is known that a pregnancy loss has occurred. ## Risks of biochemical pregnancy Being biochemically pregnant is not life-threatening, so the woman is not required to stay in the hospital or be given any medication. The exception is when spontaneous cleansing has not occurred and a uterine curettage procedure must be performed. Therefore, it is worth checking this as soon as the pregnancy hormone drops. A woman who has not cleared on her own may develop an intrauterine infection, which not infrequently involves lengthy drug therapy or surgery. It is professionally referred to as a retained miscarriage. If the patient has the need, she should see a psychologist. Some ladies spend years trying to have a baby and find it hard to tame the emotions that are normal after a loss. In the case of repeated biochemical pregnancies, it is worthwhile to perform specialized tests, on the basis of which the cause of continuous failures will be determined.

When does it occur and what are its effects? ## What are blood types? Blood type is determined by proteins (antigens) that are present on the surface of blood cells – especially red blood cells (erythrocytes). They organize themselves into different systems, so in humans several groups are distinguished. According to the best-known division, they are: A, B, AB and 0. However, **the Rh system, which consists of 5 antigens, is also very important: D, C, c, E, e. **If the first one is present on the surface of erythrocytes, the person is referred to as Rh+ **. ** The others, however, are Rh- blood. ## What is a serological conflict? Serological conflict occurs **when there is an incompatibility in blood type – especially the Rh system – between mother and child**. It leads to the activation of an immune response in the mother’s body, resulting in the production of antibodies (anti-D) directed against the baby’s blood cells. ## How does a serological conflict occur? When is there a serological conflict? It occurs in circumstances where: - The pregnant woman has Rh- blood type and her partner Rh+; - The child will inherit the antigen system on red blood cells from the father; - A certain amount of the baby’s fluid will enter the mother’s blood. **In the vast majority of cases, a serological conflict in the first pregnancy may not occur until delivery. **This is when the baby’s blood is most likely to enter the woman’s circulatory system. This is because throughout intrauterine life, the bloodstreams of mother and fetus are separated by the placental barrier. For this reason, the pregnant woman’s body cannot produce anti-D antibodies beforehand. It is important to realize that a serological conflict in the first pregnancy is possible (for example, when the placenta detaches, so that the blood of the fetus enters the mother’s body). It is possible to have a serological conflict when there is incompatibility in other blood systems. We are mainly talking about the situation in which the pregnant woman has group 0, and her child inherits the group with A or B antigens from his dad. However, this is a rare situation. **It is worth adding that serological conflict does not occur when:** - The woman is Rh+, and her partner is Rh-; - The child will not inherit the Rh+ group from his dad, - The woman and her partner have the Rh- group. ## Serological conflict – symptoms Blood conflict during pregnancy does not usually manifest itself in women. The exception to this is when she develops a polycystic condition that can contribute to problems associated with an excessively enlarged abdominal girth. **Symptoms of the condition, however, are visible in the fetus and include:** - anemia, - thrombocytopenia, - early jaundice with predominantly free bilirubin of varying degrees of severity, - Liver and spleen enlargement, - edema in the form of the presence of free fluid in the abdominal cavity, pleural cavities or pericardial sac. ## How to recognize a serological conflict? The basic test that detects the risk of serological conflict is to** check the presence of immune antibodies in the blood serum of the Rh- group mother-to-be**. Such a test should be repeated every approx. 2 months. If the doctor diagnoses a serological conflict, then it is necessary for the parent to be under constant specialized control. It is also necessary to perform a systematic ultrasound to measure blood flow in the toddler’s brain artery. This is because too rapid and intense a flow can indicate anemia, requiring cordocentesis, which is the puncture of the umbilical cord and direct evaluation of the morphology of his blood. ## The consequences that come with serological conflict Complications of serological conflict are particularly dangerous for the child. As a result of abnormalities, he may develop an immune-mediated disease that eventually even leads to death. This is the so-called. **Hemolytic disease of the newborn, which is characterized by the fact that the baby’s blood cells are attacked by anti-D antibodies.** As a result, they break down, anemia develops, hypoxia occurs and internal organs are damaged. Treatment of serological conflict (more specifically, hemolytic disease) involves blood transfusions directly into the fetal bloodstream. In this way, anemia does not occur while the baby is in the womb. After birth, the newborn may be given phototherapy. When this is ineffective, a blood transfusion is required. ## Serological conflict and second pregnancy Anti-D antibodies stay in a woman’s body forever. For this reason, the risk of serological conflict in subsequent pregnancies may occur even before delivery. It is worth remembering that the phenomenon poses a real threat to the life of the child. To prevent such a situation, therefore, it is necessary to ensure that the mother’s bloodstream does not develop antibodies during childbirth during the first pregnancy.

As a result of this method, the presence of antibodies is negligible, which minimizes the risk of future serological conflict. Specialists have estimated that the occurrence of blood discrepancies between mother and child is becoming increasingly rare. It is still not a marginal problem, although thanks to effective immunoprophylaxis, the incidence of conflicts caused by Rh system D antigen range incompatibility has decreased. FAQ: - **What are the factors affecting the risk of serological conflict?** The conflict occurs through the incompatibility of the mother’s blood and the baby’s. This can occur when a woman has Rh- blood type and her partner Rh+. Then there is the production of anti-D antibodies, which are particularly dangerous during the second pregnancy. - **When is anti-D immunoglobulin given to a woman?** Anti-D immunoglobulins are part of intrapregnancy prophylaxis and are used to prevent the production of harmful proteins. It is recommended to use them after childbirth, when the baby is diagnosed with Rh+ blood type, and in case of removal of ectopic pregnancy or heavy bleeding during pregnancy. - **What is the prognosis of serological conflict?** The development of immunoprophylaxis offers a promising chance for a healthy pregnancy. However, it is important to prevent as early as possible, as later management may prove more difficult for both the mother and her child. --- --- title: "Baby shower – what is it and when to hold such a party?" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/pregnancy-zone-2/how-to-take-care-of-yourself-during-pregnancy/baby-shower-what-is-it-and-when-to-hold-such-a-party" lang: "pl" type: "pregnancy_zone" description: "A baby shower is a type of party to celebrate the imminent birth of a child.

The baby shower party is known all over the world, although it is celebrated in different ways. Such an event is not only an opportunity to have a nice time, but also a good opportunity to give gifts to the mother-to-be. A baby shower can be held even during a coronavirus outbreak, but the meeting will take a different form. ## Baby shower – what the party for the mother-to-be is all about A baby shower is a party in honor of the mother-to-be and the baby soon to be born. The birthday girl is presented with gifts for the toddler and herself. The event is usually organized by those closest to the pregnant woman. A baby shower is also an opportunity to have a nice time with friends and family, to relax and have a blast. The celebration is a peculiar way of showing a pregnant woman support, care and love. Baby shower parties originated in ancient times, but were only cultivated in a handful of countries. Nowadays, mainly due to the American and British public, the event is known around the world, but celebrated in different ways. One of the newest elements of the event is the so-called “The Party. gender reveal, which is the announcement of the [baby](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/kalendarz-ciazy/19-tydzien-ciazy-czas-gdy-mozesz-poznac-plec-dziecka)‘s gender, which until now was not known to anyone except the parents of the toddler.

However, the various restrictions need not prevent you from celebrating the upcoming termination of your pregnancy. One possibility is remote contact through Internet connectivity, which will allow all potential guests to see, hear and spend time together, such as through a video conferencing application. The festively dressed party attendees can carry on conversations, games without interruption, and the gifts and cake pre-ordered online to the mother-to-be’s address will be happily unwrapped by her and eaten on sight. ## When and how to hold a baby shower? The organization of a baby shower usually takes place in the last weeks of pregnancy. At this time, the mother-to-be is not yet preoccupied with caring for her toddler. It is a good idea to start organizing the meeting by determining the guest list, the nature and location of the event. A baby shower at home in the company of several or a dozen people sitting together in the living room or garden on a weekend afternoon is the optimal solution, providing comfort and a sense of freedom for the birthday girl, while taking into account the availability of the participants.

What should a mother-to-be know about her evolution? The length of the cervix during pregnancy, as well as its elasticity and shape, for a variety of reasons, can undergo changes that threaten pregnancy. It is also not uncommon for unpleasant symptoms to appear, such as pain or discharge. Any discomfort related to the workings of the reproductive system is cause for concern. ## Cervical length in pregnancy – norms The cervix, a tube-shaped organ that forms the lower part of the uterus, connects the vagina to the uterine cavity. It not only has an important transit function during fertilization and in the expulsion of the unfertilized ovum, but also provides airtight protection for the fetus located in the uterus during pregnancy. The normal length of the cervix during pregnancy, especially in its early stages, in a healthy woman is approx. 3-5 cm. It is tough, as is the case for women who are not pregnant. However, already at the beginning of the first trimester, it undergoes certain physiological (completely natural) changes that only characterize the reproductive system of the mother-to-be. First of all, the cervix at the beginning of pregnancy plugs its outlet, forming the so-called “cervix”. mucus suppository – a protective barrier for the fetus against external factors. In a normal pregnancy, a long, inflexible and closed cervix should remain unchanged until the late stage of the third trimester, when the body, preparing for [labor](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/porod-naturalny-jakie-sa-jego-etapy-i-jak-byc-na-niego-przygotowanym), activates the processes of shortening the cervix and increasing its elasticity and dilating its canal. However, for a variety of reasons, the length of the cervix during pregnancy and its shape, patency or flexibility can be disrupted, posing a risk of preterm labor. In an abnormal situation, it is not uncommon to also experience physical complaints such as [lower abdominal](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy/bol-podbrzusza-a-ciaza-co-oznacza-bol-podbrzusza-w-ciazy-i-kiedy-jest-powodem-do-niepokoju) and lumbar [pain](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy/bol-podbrzusza-a-ciaza-co-oznacza-bol-podbrzusza-w-ciazy-i-kiedy-jest-powodem-do-niepokoju), bleeding from the genital tract or discharge. Any discomfort of concern should be reported to the attending physician. ## Shortening of the cervix in pregnancy Both premature shortening of the cervix during pregnancy and changes in its structure are signals of reproductive organ failure. This is a particularly dangerous situation in the early stages of pregnancy. In addition to the appearance of a short cervix in pregnancy, its mucous membrane is also swollen and the entire organ is flexible. It is then referred to as cervical dilation. Such a phenomenon significantly affects both the course of pregnancy and childbirth, as well as the size of the fetus. The lowering of the cervix in pregnancy is determined by many factors, including: - Anatomical abnormalities regarding the length of the cervix; - Past trauma, surgery and treatment of the cervix; - Cervical polyp during pregnancy and pathological lesions formed before conception; - hormonal changes; - Excessive lifestyle during pregnancy, excessive stress and physical exertion; - multiple pregnancy; - The large weight and size of the baby pushing against the cervix. A shortened cervix in early pregnancy does not always provoke painful symptoms. Sometimes the mother-to-be learns about changes in the structure of the organ only during a gynecological examination, which is why regular examinations during pregnancy, as well as observation of one’s own body, are so important. ## How to prevent cervical shortening in pregnancy? Shortening of the cervix is an irreversible process, but it can be slowed down, among other things. Through a specialized suture or disc placed by a doctor. In addition, it is a good idea to rest a lot in a reclining position to relieve pressure on the pelvic organs, avoid physical activity and stress, take care of intimate hygiene and refrain from sexual intercourse.

How can it be dealt with? Perineal pain in pregnancy most often occurs during walking, prolonged sitting, standing up or exercise. The mother-to-be may feel discomfort, aching or pressure in the pelvis, which sometimes also radiates to the hips and groin. Perineal pain in pregnancy usually passes spontaneously after resting or changing positions. If it is very troublesome, you should consult a doctor, because there is a risk of a tear of the pubic conjunctiva. ## Causes of perineal pain Perineal pain in pregnancy usually occurs in the last weeks (most moms-to-be report perineal pain at 9 months of pregnancy) and is related to the body’s preparation for labor. The pregnancy hormones produced (including relaxin) cause the uterine ligaments, sacroiliac joints and the bone and cartilage tissue of the pelvis to relax. This process can cause groin and perineal pain in some women. In pregnancy, its cause is also the pressure of the uterus on the pubic conjunctiva. Perineal pain before labor (i.e., after [36 weeks of pregnancy](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/kalendarz-ciazy/36-tydzien-ciazy-rozwoj-dziecka-w-iii-trymestrze-jakie-dolegliwosci-dokuczaja-przyszlej-mamie)) is caused by pressure from the baby’s head, which means the baby is ready to come into the world, and labor action could start any day.

It should not be a cause for concern, as it is also related to the action of pregnancy hormones and the preparation of a woman’s body for the systematic enlargement of the uterus and the change in figure. Perineal pain at the beginning of pregnancy resembles that which occurs before menstruation.

Perineal pain in pregnancy is a physiological symptom that, although bothersome, should not be a cause for concern. However, it is a good idea to tell your pregnancy doctor about it and ask him for an orthopedic consultation. Sometimes perineal pain in pregnancy is a symptom of a diastasis of the pubic conjunctiva. Pubic conjunctival distention is a situation that is caused by too much loosening of the bony and cartilaginous tissue of the pelvis, more specifically, the cartilaginous joint between the right and left pubic bones. Characteristic symptoms are pain in the perineum when walking and difficulty in moving (known as a duck-like gait). Dissection of the pubic conjunctiva makes it difficult and sometimes even impossible to give birth by natural forces. This problem affects 1 in 800 pregnant women. Perineal pain in pregnancy in a situation where there has been a separation of the pubic conjunctiva is very severe. To alleviate it, it is necessary to use physiotherapy exercises, wear a special orthopedic (support) belt, in addition, rest and avoid carrying heavy objects. In extreme cases, the doctor may order the pregnant woman to take painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs. It also happens that surgery is necessary after childbirth. You should also go to the doctor if perineal pain in pregnancy occurs with other symptoms: - Spotting or bleeding from the genital tract, - uterine contractions, - severe [abdominal pain](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy/przyczyny-objawy-i-leczenie-bolu-brzucha-w-ciazy-co-na-bol-brzucha-w-ciazy), - elevated [body temperature](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy/temperatura-w-ciazy-kiedy-jest-normalnym-zjawiskiem-a-kiedy-symptomem-choroby). In such a situation, it is necessary to immediately perform an ultrasound (ultrasound) and cardiotocographic (KTG) examination. ## Stabbing in the perineum during pregnancy Sometimes women report stabbing in the perineum during pregnancy. It, too, should not cause concern, as it is associated with the relaxation and stretching of the uterine ligaments and cartilaginous tissues of the pelvis. Stabbing in the perineum during pregnancy can occur both at the beginning and before termination.   See also: [Pregnancy discharge – causes and characteristics](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/uplawy-w-ciazy-charakterystyka-oraz-przyczyny) --- --- title: "Bleeding after childbirth – what does it mean and how long does it last?" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/pregnancy-zone-2/pregnancy-advice/bleeding-after-childbirth-what-does-it-mean-and-how-long-does-it-last" lang: "pl" type: "pregnancy_zone" description: "Bleeding after childbirth is not a cause for concern.

Bleeding after childbirth of greater or lesser intensity affects every parturient. The uterus during pregnancy increases in size by up to 20 times. No more surprisingly, a sizable wound is created in her cavity after delivery. The phenomenon of excretion of a certain amount of mucus, membranes and blood after the baby is born is called “puerperal feces.” Such bleeding is indicative of the uterine cleansing process after 9 months of pregnancy. It is difficult to determine exactly how long postpartum bleeding lasts, although it usually ends in the middle of [the puerperium](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/polog-co-dzieje-sie-w-organizmie-kobiety-po-porodzie) ie. About 1.5 months after delivery. The coloration of the mucus is less and less red over time, and the amount of clots is visibly reduced. If such bleeding intensifies and has an unpleasant odor, it is a sign to see a doctor as soon as possible. Pre-partum bleeding is a wake-up call for the pregnant woman and may indicate placental detachment. Just after childbirth, the uterus’ natural protective mechanisms protect against the intrusion of pathogens and the systematic, physiological contractions of the uterus cause the blood vessels to close, which reduces the gates of potential infection. ## Bleeding in the puerperium Postpartum bleeding is closely related to puerperal feces. How long postpartum bleeding lasts is determined by the rate of recovery of the woman’s body – age, health and [the course of the pregnancy](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/przebieg-porodu-4-fazy-zakonczone-happy-endem). During the puerperium, bacterial infection and the discharge of purulent secretions from the genital tract can occur quite easily. Stopping postpartum bleeding is, of course, a basic activity regarding personal hygiene in the postpartum period, however, tampons must not be used for this purpose, only cotton pads. Since it is impossible to predict how long postpartum bleeding will last, stock up on several large packs of postpartum sanitary pads and absorbent pads. After about 10 days postpartum, spotting should be less frequent and turn yellow-white. If there is still bleeding 6 weeks after delivery, do not underestimate it and immediately refer to a gynecologist. It is worth noting that postpartum bleeding does not only affect the uterus. Rectal bleeding after childbirth can indicate thrombotic lesions, which are a common complaint after childbirth. In addition, constipation and hemorrhoids are not uncommon. The passage of stool and urine is accompanied by pain and burning. This has to do with the presence of stitches from the perineal incision during labor.

Long bleeding after childbirth may indicate a slower uterine shrinking process. This is a dangerous situation, as it often results in the development of an infection or even leads to severe hemorrhaging. Bleeding a month after giving birth is not yet a cause for concern. However, if heavy and prolonged bleeding in the postpartum period is accompanied by [abdominal pain](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy/przyczyny-objawy-i-leczenie-bolu-brzucha-w-ciazy-co-na-bol-brzucha-w-ciazy), high fever and chills, it is worth seeing a specialist. This can be the result of lack of or inadequate personal hygiene, or more serious conditions like hematoma of the reproductive tract or damage to it. There is also the possibility, albeit small, of leftover placenta lodging in the uterus of the newly pregnant mother. The postpartum breech may not have been accurate and there may have been an oversight. When puerperal bleeding is significantly prolonged, doctors may decide on drug treatment – hormonal treatment with progestogens (pills or injections).  See also: [Water birth.](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/porod-w-wodzie-chwilowy-trend-czy-nowoczesne-rozwiazanie) Advantages and disadvantages --- --- title: "Catarrh in pregnancy – how to get rid of a persistent ailment?" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/pregnancy-zone-2/diseases-during-pregnancy/catarrh-in-pregnancy-how-to-get-rid-of-a-persistent-ailment" lang: "pl" type: "pregnancy_zone" description: "Hormonal changes in a pregnant woman's body make her more susceptible to infections and more.

The culprit of a runny nose does not always have to be a cold, or allergies. Its causative factor may be pregnancy itself. This is due to the changes taking place in a woman’s body. Excess estrogen and progesterone can also be the reason for the appearance of a runny nose.  How to fight this persistent ailment? ## Catarrh in pregnancy – why does it arise ? A runny nose in pregnancy can occur for many reasons. Excessive nasal discharge is not always a symptom of a cold. High levels of hormones during pregnancy ie. Estrogen and progesterone are the most common culprits of this very persistent ailment. As a result of their action, blood flow through the nasal mucosa increases and causes swelling. As a result, a woman develops what is known as an “inferiority”. Bothersome pregnancy rhinitis and the compulsion to constantly empty the nose. Hormonal catarrh in pregnancy passes immediately after delivery. For what it’s worth, a sore throat, [cough](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy/czy-kaszel-w-ciazy-szkodzi-dziecku) and runny nose in pregnancy can indicate an infection. A cold should not be taken lightly by any mom-to-be. An innocent infection can develop into a serious respiratory illness that even carries the risk of miscarriage. In such situations, antibiotic therapy is sometimes necessary, which does not serve both mother and child. Allergic rhinitis can also bother a woman. During pregnancy, susceptibility to allergens is greater, especially if a woman also struggled with allergies before pregnancy. Any antihistamines must be decided by an allergist. See also: [Allergy in pregnancy](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy/alergia-w-ciazy) ## Catarrh in pregnancy – what does the color of the nasal discharge indicate? The color of the nasal discharge determines the type of rhinitis. A runny nose with blood during pregnancy indicates swelling of the mucous membranes, which is caused by hormonal changes. Yellow runny nose in pregnancy (or green runny nose in pregnancy) is a harbinger of infection and should not be ignored. Bacterial infections can develop into pneumonia, or bronchitis. Allergic rhinitis, on the other hand, will be watery and very persistent. Many moms-to-be ask about runny nose during pregnancy – “does it harm the baby and how can it be remedied?” The ailment, as much as it bothers pregnant women, will not be harmful to the baby, as long as its result is not an upper respiratory tract infection. If a mom is in doubt about what is safe for a runny nose during pregnancy, she needs to see a doctor, or ask a pharmacist for help. They will certainly advise the right product.  Read also: [What does the baby look like at 20 weeks of pregnancy?](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/kalendarz-ciazy/20-tydzien-ciazy-rozwoj-dziecka-przyspiesza) Baby’s movements ## Ways to get a runny nose during pregnancy How to treat a runny nose during pregnancy? There are many ways to treat a runny nose during pregnancy that are safe for the baby and mother. It is very important to moisten the mucous membranes, which will make the runny nose less troublesome and the inside of the nose less swollen. A very good “moisturizer” is saline and sea salts, which will help decongest the nose. These are the only drops for runny nose in pregnancy that can be used by a mother-to-be. In truly emergency situations, xylometazoline drops are recommended for pregnant women, but there must be a doctor’s approval. If drops are insufficient, you can try home remedies for a runny nose during pregnancy. One home remedy that has been recommended for generations is inhalations for a runny nose. During pregnancy, the use of essential oils is not forbidden, and is even recommended. Eucalyptus oil, pine oil, or peppermint oil will be a good choice and will minimize the disturbing ailment. For inhalation you need a nebulizer, unless you try the old way of our grandmothers. A bowl of herbal infusion is also a good idea. In this way, infusions of chamomile, thyme and lembi can be used. They have anti-inflammatory, soothing and antibacterial properties. You can also buy marjoram ointment at the pharmacy, which is a proven remedy for a runny nose. It can be used to lubricate the noses of even very young children, without the risk of irritation. It is also safe for pregnant women. Its only drawback is its characteristic smell, which not all mothers-to-be tolerate. For a runny nose during pregnancy, you can also buy a nasal spray with sea salt, hyaluronic acid, soothing panthenol and essential oils, which are available without a prescription at any pharmacy. The cost is also not much and closes at about PLN 10 for 20 ml.

Most of what a woman eats and drinks is transported in varying concentrations with her blood through the umbilical cord to the fetus.

Pregnancy is a 40-week period, with a tolerance range of two weeks in either direction. During this time, an embryo is formed from the fertilized egg, **from which, after implantation in the uterus, a small human being gradually develops.** The fetus makes contact with the mother’s body through the umbilical cord. The blood flowing in it transports nutrients from the mother’s body. Pregnancy can take different courses, sometimes a woman feels well until the actual solution, sometimes she experiences significant discomfort from the beginning of pregnancy. Very popular are the so-called. **Pregnancy cravings, i.e. a sudden desire to eat a particular product or a combination of seemingly incompatible products.** However, not all ingredients are healthy for the baby, and knowing what not to eat during pregnancy is extremely important for moms-to-be. ## What is not to drink during pregnancy? During fetal development, it is important not only what you can’t eat during pregnancy, but also what you can’t drink. Of course, the first ingredient that should be excluded is **alcohol in any form.** Ethanol easily penetrates the blood and is transported to the fetus through the umbilical cord. **The baby’s body cannot metabolize it, and as a result it is a toxin, poisoning its body.** To protect the baby from the harmful effects of alcohol, abstinence should be maintained throughout the pregnancy. Regular consumption of alcohol by a pregnant woman is the cause of fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS), the symptoms of which are low birth weight, craniofacial defects, nerve cell damage, and developmental delay. In addition to alcohol, it is not advisable to **drink sweetened carbonated drinks** during pregnancy **.** They are a source of sugar, plus they contain artificial colors and preservatives. Some may also have caffeine and taurine in the formulation. Such drinks increase glucose concentrations in the body, and do not provide any nutritional value. ## What shouldn’t you eat during pregnancy? Knowing what not to eat during pregnancy is very important, as some products can harm the developing baby. **Fast food dishes** should be **excluded** from the diet **.** They contain a lot of fats and are often prepared with average or low-quality products. They provide many calories, but have no nutritional value. **You should also limit sweets, which contain a great deal of sugar and artificial substances.** They can contribute to excessive weight gain in women, and they do not provide nutrients. Completely exclude from the diet **all kinds of mold, ripened cheese and feta **– they can be a source of a disease called listeriosis. **Raw meat and eggs** are also banned. Meat can be a source of toxoplasmosis and listeriosis, diseases that cause premature births and many developmental defects in newborns. Bacteria leading to salmonella, the development of which in pregnancy also carries risks, may be present in raw eggs. In addition, highly processed products are not recommended, as they contain many preservatives that are dangerous to a child’s development. ## What can you eat during pregnancy and what to avoid? A mother-to-be throughout the waiting period should be aware of what can be eaten during pregnancy and what to avoid. There are several **foods and dishes that are not absolutely forbidden, but should be taken with caution and relatively infrequently.** These include liver, peanuts (they may contain aflatoxins that can damage the fetus), [coffee](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/jak-dbac-o-siebie-w-ciazy/kawa-w-ciazy-czy-picie-kawy-w-ciazy-jest-dozwolone) and strong tea (they can cause fetal heart disorders), grilled and smoked products (a lot of salt is usually used in their preparation, moreover, many harmful substances are contained in the smoke). ## What fish not to eat during pregnancy? Fish are valuable products, a **source of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, protein, iodine and vitamin D**. However, the increasing pollution of the environment makes it increasingly difficult to find healthy and valuable fish. Hence, it is important to know which fish not to eat during pregnancy. Certainly **raw fish should not be eaten**, that is, for a period of nine months it is necessary to exclude sushi from the diet. Seafood is also not advisable. In addition, large and predatory fish (swordfish, tuna, king mackerel) should be avoided, as they feed on smaller creatures, thus further **accumulating pollutants and heavy metals**. These compounds can cause damage to the baby’s nervous system. ## What fruits should you not eat during pregnancy? Fruits are a healthy addition to the diet, as they contain many vitamins. Above all, **remember to wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly** to remove as many chemicals as possible that are on their surface. Exotic fruits are not advisable, **strawberries and citrus should be treated with caution –** they can be allergenic and cause allergic reactions. **Read also: [Cosmetics a woman can and should use pregnancy](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/jak-dbac-o-siebie-w-ciazy/kosmetyki-dla-kobiet-w-ciazy-jak-bezpiecznie-pielegnowac-skore-w-ciazy)** --- --- title: "Week 1 of pregnancy – what can the expectant mother expect?" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/pregnancy-zone-2/pregnancy-calendar/week-1-of-pregnancy-what-can-the-expectant-mother-expect" lang: "pl" type: "pregnancy_zone" description: "The first week of pregnancy is a time of intense preparation of the body to receive the embryo.

The beginning of pregnancy is very exciting for parents-to-be. They want to know as much as possible about how the child is developing. Also important are the challenges that come with pregnancy – especially when it’s their first offspring. The 9-month wait is a time when intense changes are taking place. That’s why Parents follow them week after week. ## How is the pregnancy developing at 1 week? In fact, 1 week of pregnancy is the moment when the baby is not yet developing in the uterus. How is this possible? This has to do with Naegele’s rule, which applies to gynecology and obstetrics. According to it, the beginning of pregnancy is considered the first day of the last menstrual period. Fertilization, on the other hand, usually takes place about 2 weeks later.Therefore, it can be said that at this time you are not yet actually pregnant. However, significant changes are already taking place in the body to prepare it for the implantation of a fertilized egg. Therefore, this 1 week of pregnancy is of great importance for the course of pregnancy. During menstruation, there is an exfoliation of the mucous membrane, which has expanded over the past 2 weeks. This will allow new epithelium to emerge in the following days – ready to receive the fertilized egg. This is important because its thickness determines the nesting of the embryo, as well as the conditions for its development. In the 1st week of pregnancy, the follicle is also maturing, from which the egg will be released on the day of ovulation. ## Pregnancy symptoms at 1 week Symptoms at 1 week of pregnancy are not typical. Actually, you are not yet experiencing any pregnancy discomforts. They appear only after fertilization, when the level of hormones (especially chorionic gonadotropin) increases significantly. At 1 week of pregnancy, menstrual bleeding is present. It lasts for 3-5 days. It is usually no different from other menstrual periods. It is accompanied by lower abdominal pain, irritability and breast tenderness. ## The first week of pregnancy – how to take care of yourself? The 1st week of pregnancy is the time when you should take special care of yourself. If you plan to become a mom, give up stimulants. Also take a look at your daily habits. It is necessary to follow a healthy and properly ** [balanced diet](https://www.pbkm.pl/en/pregnancy-zone-2/how-to-take-care-of-yourself-during-pregnancy/pregnancy-diet-products-safe-for-mother-and-baby) **. The dishes should be varied, and each is accompanied by a serving of fresh vegetables. This way you provide your body with all the necessary vitamins and minerals. Don’t forget about physical activity, too. Moderate exercise is recommended, adapted to the body’s capabilities. If there are no contraindications, you can continue throughout your pregnancy. This will certainly keep you feeling good and prepare you for childbirth. ## Tests that are worth doing at 1 week of pregnancy 1 week of pregnancy is not yet the time when you can take a pregnancy test. However, you should consider other laboratory tests. They will allow you to know the state of your health and start treating any abnormalities before conception occurs. Ask your GP for a referral for a blood count, fasting glucose levels, liver tests, and thyroid hormone tests. Also go to the dentist to evaluate the condition of your mouth. ## Folic acid supplementation If you are planning to become a mom, start [folic acid supplementation](https://www.pbkm.pl/en/pregnancy-zone-2/how-to-take-care-of-yourself-during-pregnancy/folic-acid-in-pregnancy-why-and-how-to-take-it).

They protect the internal female reproductive tract and the developing fetus from infections. Physiologically, mucus is in moderate quantity, whitish-transparent, odorless and of uniform consistency." last_modified: "2023-01-05T07:47:32+00:00" translations: pl: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/pregnancy-zone-2/diseases-during-pregnancy/discharges-during-pregnancy-characteristics-and-causes" --- # Discharges during pregnancy – characteristics and causes Brown discharge in pregnancy or greenish discharge in pregnancy can be caused by a number of factors, both physiological and pathological. If the amount of discharge, odor, consistency  changes and is accompanied by itching or burning, visit a doctor. This can be the first signal of an infection inside the reproductive tract, in some cases dangerous for the fetus.  ## Characteristics and causes of discharge during pregnancy The discharge in the first weeks of pregnancy should be odorless, of uniform consistency, whitish-transparent or slightly yellowish in color. Only the amount of secretion changes. The increase in estrogen and progesterone induces increased production. This is to increase the protective function against viruses, bacteria and fungi.  White discharge during pregnancy with a consistency resembling cottage cheese can indicate a fungal infection. Other symptoms of such an infection include redness around the vaginal outlet, itching and burning. This infection is caused by candida. Green discharge during pregnancy, as well as green-yellow, foamy consistency, are indicative of vaginal cysticercosis infection. This protozoan can cause [cystitis](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy/objawy-i-leczenie-zapalenia-pecherza-w-ciazy), which is additionally accompanied by whitish urine (indicating the presence of pus), pain in the urethral area during urination, a burning and pinching sensation. Brown discharge in pregnancy means that the vaginal discharge is colored by blood. However, it does not necessarily mean anything dangerous, so do not panic. In early pregnancy, physiological light bleeding occurs as a result of the implantation (implantation) of the embryo into the uterine wall after sexual intercourse and changes in the body’s hormonal economy as it prepares for pregnancy and subsequent childbirth.  After fertilization, there is a sudden increase in progesterone, which is designed to protect the embryo and provide it with optimal conditions for further development. However, the appearance of brown or bloody discharge should never be ignored. Immediately visit a doctor to determine the exact cause of the above-mentioned discharge. To assess the condition of the fetus, an ultrasound is primarily performed. Possible pathological causes of brown discharge are: cancer of the cervix or adnexa, [placenta progenita](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy/czym-jest-lozysko-przodujace-czy-stwarza-zagrozenie-dla-dziecka), i.e. located above the entrance to the birth canal instead of in the uterus, premature detachment of the placenta and the beginning of the abortion process. In order to avoid serious complications, a gynecologist should be consulted and a restful lifestyle and properly selected pharmacotherapy should be implemented. Discharges with a characteristic unpleasant odor indicate a bacterial infection. They are caused by aerobic bacteria. In addition to a peculiar odor, the color, consistency and quantity resemble normal secretions. ## Treatment of bacterial infection In each case, the most important thing is to determine the exact cause of the infection. Depending on the diagnosis and the pathogenic microorganism, the best and safest pharmacotherapy is selected. To determine the causative agent, tests are performed for culture, bacteriological and mycological smears, as well as cytology and vaginal cleanliness (biocenosis). When the infection threatens pregnancy, it becomes necessary to implement antibiotic therapy. It is less dangerous and easier to treat during the first trimester of pregnancy, but it carries a number of serious complications that can surface after the baby is born. To prevent infections, special attention should be paid to daily intimate hygiene and keeping the perineum clean. This can be ensured by: wearing cotton underwear that guarantees proper skin breathing, washing the perineal area from the vaginal outlet to the anus, avoiding tight clothing such as leggings and panties, and avoiding directly pouring hot water over the perineum, as this can change the pH of the vagina and disrupt the natural bacterial flora. Perfumed soaps, scented toilet paper should also be avoided. It is good for intimate hygiene products during pregnancy to contain lactic acid.

Z tego względu do ciąży wlicza się także dni, które ją jedynie poprzedzają – mimo że jeszcze faktycznie się nie rozpoczęła i nie ma pewności, czy w danym cyklu w ogóle do niej dojdzie. **W tak rozumianym drugim tygodniu ciąży w jajniku dojrzewa pęcherzyk Graafa, który przygotowuje się do uwolnienia komórki jajowej. **Owulacja, czyli uwolnienie komórki jajowej z jajnika, wyznacza szczyt płodności w cyklu menstruacyjnym[1](#przypis1). W tym czasie wiele kobiet sięga po test owulacyjny, aby precyzyjnie określić najkorzystniejszy moment na współżycie seksualne. **Chociaż komórka jajowa żyje maksymalnie 24 godziny, plemniki mogą przetrwać w organizmie kobiety przez kilka dni.** Dlatego też dni płodne obejmują nie tylko moment owulacji, ale również kilka poprzedzających ją dni. Warto znać długość własnego cyklu i datę pierwszego dnia ostatniej miesiączki – to pozwala lepiej określić czas owulacji, który przypada zwykle 14 dni przed kolejną miesiączką. ## 2. tydzień ciąży – objawy Pierwsze dwa tygodnie określane umownie jako początek ciąży to czas, w którym występują typowe objawy związane z naturalnym przebiegiem cyklu menstruacyjnego – nie wynikają one jednak z samej ciąży, której obecność na tym etapie nie jest jeszcze przesądzona. **Do połączenia komórki jajowej z plemnikiem zazwyczaj dochodzi dopiero pod koniec drugiego tygodnia. **Właśnie wtedy mogą rozpocząć się pierwsze zmiany hormonalne, które z czasem wywołają [pierwsze objawy ciąży](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/jak-dbac-o-siebie-w-ciazy/poczatek-ciazy-objawy-ktorych-mozna-sie-spodziewac-i-nietypowe-reakcje-organizmu). W tym czasie kobiety zwykle uważnie obserwują swój organizm i zauważają oznaki zbliżającej się owulacji. **Charakterystyczne są wtedy zmiany w śluzie szyjkowym – staje się on przezroczysty, śliski i rozciągliwy[2](#przypis2). **Może również nieznacznie wzrosnąć temperatura ciała. U części kobiet pojawia się lekki ból po jednej stronie podbrzusza, określany jako ból owulacyjny, który towarzyszy uwolnieniu komórki jajowej. ## Objawy ciąży (2. tydzień) – zmiany w organizmie kobiety Zakładając, że w danym cyklu dojdzie do zapłodnienia,2. tydzień ciąży to czas intensywnych przygotowań organizmu kobiety do potencjalnego zapłodnienia komórki jajowej. Choć formalnie ciąży nie można stwierdzić, w ciele kobiety zachodzą istotne procesy hormonalne i fizjologiczne, które mają umożliwić poczęcie dziecka. **Wzrasta poziom hormonu luteinizującego (LH), który odpowiada za doprowadzenie pęcherzyka Graafa do pęknięcia.** W jego wyniku dojrzewająca komórka jajowa zostaje uwolniona z jajnika i przemieszcza się w stronę jajowodu[3](#przypis3). **Po zakończeniu owulacji, resztki pękniętego pęcherzyka przekształcają się w tzw. ciałko żółte.** Jest to struktura, która zaczyna produkować progesteron – hormon niezbędny do utrzymania wczesnej ciąży. Pod jego wpływem błona śluzowa macicy, czyli endometrium, staje się grubsza i lepiej ukrwiona, co pozwala na zagnieżdżenie zarodka w jamie macicy, jeśli dojdzie do zapłodnienia[4](#przypis4). U części kobiet mogą w tym czasie wystąpić objawy przypominające zbliżającą się miesiączkę – napięcie w obrębie brzucha, wahania nastroju czy tkliwość piersi. ## 2. tydzień ciąży – brzuch i zmiany w jego wyglądzie W pierwszym miesiącu ciąży, a szczególnie w 2. tygodniu, zmiany w wyglądzie ciała są jeszcze niewidoczne. **Owulacja i ewentualne zapłodnienie nie prowadzą jeszcze do powiększenia macicy ani innych widocznych objawów fizycznych**. Wiele kobiet w tym czasie nie zauważa żadnej różnicy w swoim ciele. **Możliwe są jednak delikatne dolegliwości, takie jak uczucie pełności lub lekki ból w dolnej części brzucha.** To efekty owulacji lub wczesnych zmian hormonalnych[5](#przypis5). Warto pamiętać, że pierwsze widoczne zmiany w obrębie brzucha pojawiają się zazwyczaj dopiero w drugim trymestrze, kiedy to macica zaczyna się wyraźnie powiększać. ## 2. tydzień ciąży – co dzieje się z komórką jajową? Choć umownie można mówić o ciąży już od pierwszego dnia ostatniej miesiączki, to w 2. tygodniu ciąży nie ma jeszcze zarodka. **Moment zapłodnienia komórki jajowej może dopiero nastąpić pod koniec tego tygodnia. **W związku z tym nie da się rozpoznać ciąży ani potwierdzić jej badaniami obrazowymi. Jeżeli zaś interesuje Cię, jak wygląda płód 2 tygodnie po zapłodnieniu, przeczytaj artykuł: [4. tydzień ciąży – co dzieje się w organizmie mamy i w zarodku?](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/kalendarz-ciazy/4-tydzien-ciazy-co-dzieje-sie-w-organizmie-mamy-i-dziecka) **W czasie owulacji dojrzewająca komórka jajowa zostaje uwolniona z jajnika i przesuwa się przez jajowód w stronę jamy macicy.** Jeśli dojdzie do zapłodnienia w jajowodzie, komórka zaczyna się dzielić i rozwijać w kierunku blastocysty. Ta struktura, złożona już z kilkudziesięciu komórek, może zagnieździć się w ścianie macicy w ciągu kilku dni, rozpoczynając wczesny etap rozwoju dziecka. ## 2. tydzień ciąży – USG Badania USG wykonywane w 2. tygodniu ciąży nie wykazują obecności zarodka. **Jest to zupełnie normalne, ponieważ z medycznego punktu widzenia nie doszło jeszcze do zapłodnienia ani zagnieżdżenia się zapłodnionego jajeczka w jamie macicy.** Natomiast USG może posłużyć do monitorowania owulacji – lekarz ocenia wtedy wielkość i dojrzewanie pęcherzyka Graafa, choć nie wykonuje się tego badania w rutynowej praktyce u wszystkich kobiet. Specjalistyczne badania USG mogą być pomocne dla kobiet starających się o dziecko. **Pozwalają lepiej wyznaczyć czas owulacji i optymalny moment na stosunek płciowy. **Potwierdzenie ciąży możliwe jest dopiero w kolejnych tygodniach – najczęściej między 4. a 5. tygodniem. ## 2. tydzień ciąży – ból brzucha Pojawiający się w 2. tygodniu ciąży ból w dolnej części brzucha może być objawem owulacji. **Często to właśnie w tym czasie dochodzi do lekkiego kłucia po jednej stronie, co związane jest z pęknięciem pęcherzyka Graafa.** Ten rodzaj bólu, określany jako bóle owulacyjne, nie jest niepokojący i występuje tylko u części kobiet. **Na tym etapie nie może być mowy o objawach związanych bezpośrednio z ciążą, gdyż nie wiadomo jeszcze nawet, czy do niej dojdzie.** Dopiero w następnych tygodniach, jeśli nastąpi zapłodnienie, mogą wystąpić już intensywne dolegliwości, takie jak jednostronny ból, [plamienie we wczesnej ciąży](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy/plamienie-we-wczesnej-ciazy), gorączka, [upławy w ciąży](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy/uplawy-w-ciazy-charakterystyka-oraz-przyczyny) lub inne objawy sugerujące stan zapalny. ## Objawy (2. tydzień ciąży) – jak dbać o siebie? Choć w czasie przed możliwą faktyczną ciążą nie ma fizycznych jej oznak, to właśnie teraz warto zacząć wspierać swój organizm. Zdrowe odżywianie, suplementacja [kwasu foliowego w ciąży](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/jak-dbac-o-siebie-w-ciazy/kwas-foliowy-w-ciazy-dlaczego-i-jak-go-przyjmowac) i troska o higienę snu to codzienne nawyki, które już na tym etapie mogą wspierać przyszły prawidłowy rozwój dziecka. **Odpowiednia dieta bogata w składniki odżywcze powinna zawierać świeże warzywa, owoce, produkty pełnoziarniste, białko i zdrowe tłuszcze.** Warto także wprowadzić regularną aktywność fizyczną – najlepiej umiarkowaną, dostosowaną do indywidualnych możliwości. **Joga, pływanie czy spacery mogą wspierać ogólną kondycję i przygotowanie organizmu na kolejne etapy ciąży.** Należy natomiast unikać alkoholu, papierosów oraz stresu – wszystkie te czynniki mogą mieć negatywny wpływ na cały przebieg przyszłej ciąży. **W okresie okołoowulacyjnym warto obserwować swoje ciało i prowadzić notatki dotyczące cyklu.** Może to pomóc nie tylko w określeniu najlepszego momentu na poczęcie dziecka, ale także w lepszym zrozumieniu zachodzących zmian. ## FAQ: **1. Co dzieje się w organizmie kobiety w pierwszych dwóch tygodniach ciąży?** W [1. tygodniu potencjalnej ciąży](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/kalendarz-ciazy/1-tydzien-ciazy-czego-moze-spodziewac-sie-przyszla-mama), zgodnie z medycznym sposobem liczenia, kobieta przechodzi miesiączkę. W kolejnym tygodniu dojrzewa pęcherzyk Graafa, a organizm przygotowuje się do owulacji. Choć nie występują pierwsze objawy ciąży, w tym czasie mogą już zachodzić zmiany hormonalne i fizjologiczne sprzyjające potencjalnemu zapłodnieniu. **2. Czy w drugim tygodniu można już potwierdzić ciążę?** Nie, ponieważ zapłodnienie może dopiero nastąpić pod koniec tego tygodnia, a potencjalne zagnieżdżenie zarodka nie mogło mieć w tym momencie miejsca. W rezultacie test ciążowy nie da jeszcze wiarygodnego wyniku. Potwierdzenie możliwe jest najczęściej dopiero po 4. tygodniu. **3. Czy już w 2. tygodniu ciąży warto zmieniać styl życia i dietę?** Tak, ponieważ faktyczny początek ciąży, który może mieć lada chwila miejsce, to czas, w którym rozwój zarodka będzie najbardziej wrażliwy na czynniki zewnętrzne. Dobrze jest unikać używek, racjonalnie się odżywiać i wdrożyć zdrowe nawyki. To odpowiedni czas na rozpoczęcie suplementacji kwasu foliowego i ograniczenie stresu. ## Źródła: 1. Billings, E.

Medications and home remedies for sleepless nights during pregnancy Rest, stress reduction and healthy sleep are important for a pregnant woman. Rest allows the body to regenerate, rebuild energy resources, regulate metabolism, and positively affect the well-being of the mother-to-be and the development of the fetus. Unfortunately, hormonal changes during pregnancy cause most women to report sleepless nights during pregnancy. Their effects are felt primarily during the day, so every pregnant woman should know how to deal with insomnia. ## Pregnancy and insomnia According to data collected by the U.S. National Sleep Foundation, insomnia during pregnancy and deterioration in sleep quality are reported by 75% of women. The problem is most often observed in the third trimester, but the percentage of cases is only slightly higher than at other [stages of pregnancy](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/fazy-porodu-czyli-porod-krok-po-kroku). Insomnia in pregnancy manifests itself in various ways. Most women report waking up from sleep and having difficulty falling asleep again, as well as waking up early in the morning. In some pregnant women, the time between going to bed and falling asleep also increases significantly. The effects of insomnia in pregnancy are felt throughout the day. Lack of sleep primarily affects the nervous system. The woman notices in herself difficulties in concentration, a decrease in energy, lack of motivation, excessive sleepiness, weakness. Prolonged insomnia at night can lead to weakened immunity, mood disorders and complications during labor. ## Causes of insomnia in early pregnancy At the beginning of pregnancy, insomnia is associated with hormonal changes that occur intensely after conception. The increase in pregnancy hormones (mainly estrogen) affects the phases of sleep: REM is lengthened and NREM, which is responsible for resting the body, is shortened. While a pregnant woman may wake up during the night, she has no problems falling asleep. Insomnia in the first trimester of pregnancy causes a feeling of constant fatigue during the day. ## Insomnia in the second trimester of pregnancy Insomnia in the second trimester of pregnancy manifests itself mainly in problems with falling asleep. Its causes are changes in a woman’s body – a gradual increase in the circumference of the abdomen, a change in the position of internal organs in the abdominal cavity, as well as pregnancy complaints: back pain, breast tenderness, difficulty breathing and painful calf cramps. It is often the case that women who suffered from insomnia at the beginning of pregnancy cease to experience it in the second trimester.

It is mainly related to increasing pregnancy discomforts and the difficulty in finding a suitable sleeping position due to a large belly and back pain. Other causes of insomnia in pregnancy include: - The need to urinate frequently due to pressure of the uterus on the bladder, - breathing problems, - Intense fetal movements, - Predictive cramps. Insomnia at the end of pregnancy can be caused by stress from the upcoming delivery.  ## Ways to get insomnia during pregnancy Insomnia during pregnancy can be a very troublesome problem.

It is forbidden to take any drugs on your own. [Pregnancy drugs](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy?start=18) for insomnia can adversely affect the development of the fetus, so home remedies are advisable first of all: - Limiting naps during the day, - taking care of the climate in the bedroom (airing the room, silence, no light, comfortable mattress), - Use of relaxation techniques, - Falling asleep and waking up at consistent times, - aromatherapy. It is also recommended to drink infusions of herbs (lemon balm, linden flower) half an hour before bedtime.   See also: [How to deal with postpartum depression will be in England?](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/jak-dbac-o-siebie-w-ciazy/czym-jest-depresja-poporodowa-jak-wyglada-jej-leczenie-w-anglii) --- --- title: "Influenza during pregnancy – how to prevent and treat it?" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/pregnancy-zone-2/diseases-during-pregnancy/influenza-during-pregnancy-how-to-prevent-and-treat-it" lang: "pl" type: "pregnancy_zone" description: "Influenza during pregnancy spends sleepless nights for moms-to-be. The best way to prevent it is through immunization, which is done in every trimester of pregnancy. Influenza at the beginning of pregnancy is particularly dangerous for the fetus." last_modified: "2023-04-27T11:49:05+00:00" translations: pl: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/pregnancy-zone-2/diseases-during-pregnancy/influenza-during-pregnancy-how-to-prevent-and-treat-it" --- # Influenza during pregnancy – how to prevent and treat it? Influenza during pregnancy usually gives stronger symptoms and sometimes lasts longer than normal. In women who are expecting a baby, the immune system is much weaker and therefore there is an increased risk of not only viral but also bacterial infections. Influenza and pregnancy in the first trimester is particularly dangerous for the fetus. By 18 weeks of fetal life, the [placenta](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/lozysko-po-porodzie-wydalanie-i-badanie-po-porodzie) is developing, which provides a natural barrier against the entry of microorganisms. Influenza at the beginning of pregnancy is treated similarly to that which occurs in subsequent trimesters. ## What are the risks of influenza during pregnancy? A simple cold, lasting a few days, has little effect on the fetus. It is different with influenza. There is no doubt that influenza in the first trimester of pregnancy treated incorrectly or not treated at all particularly affects the pregnant woman’s heart muscle, which can result in post-influenza myocarditis. The lungs are also at risk, with the consequent risk of complications in the form of bronchitis. When influenza strikes a woman in the final weeks of pregnancy, it can cause premature birth, low birth weight of the baby, impaired development of the nervous and digestive systems. The influenza virus in the most severe cases even threatens to cause fetal death. Pregnancy and the flu is apparently a failed combination, which is why it is surprising that only 10% of women expecting a baby choose to be [vaccinated ](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/jak-dbac-o-siebie-w-ciazy/szczepienia-w-ciazy) during [pregnancy](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/jak-dbac-o-siebie-w-ciazy/szczepienia-w-ciazy). Preventive measures are based on a diet rich in fruits and vegetables, avoiding contact with infected people, hand hygiene and choosing clothing according to the weather. Interestingly, during the first weeks of pregnancy, a woman may experience flu-like symptoms, such as headache and muscle pain. Stomach flu in pregnancy in the 1st trimester poses slightly less risk to the pregnant woman than the common cold. During the symptoms of such ailments, a pregnant woman loses a great deal of water and electrolytes, putting her at risk of dehydration. The most important thing, therefore, is to drink as much water as possible during the intestinal flu in pregnancy, [avoid coffee](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/jak-dbac-o-siebie-w-ciazy/kawa-w-ciazy-czy-picie-kawy-w-ciazy-jest-dozwolone) and tea, and take electrolytes.[](http://krew-pepowinowa.pbkm.pl/promocja-styczniowa-z-pakietem-badan) ## Treatment of influenza in pregnancy After the first flu symptoms appear, a pregnant woman should not take treatment on her own, but only seek help from a specialist. Taking any medication can have teratogenic, or fetal-damaging effects. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs containing salicylic acid or ibuprofen should be avoided in particular. It risks bleeding from the reproductive tract, damages the heart, liver and brain. Influenza in the 9th month of pregnancy as well as that occurring in the first months can be effectively and safely treated with paracetamol and antihistamines. Standard recommendations, not only for flu symptoms in pregnancy, are to rest in the warmth in bed. There are also a number of home remedies to fight the infection. Influenza in the 1st trimester of pregnancy, and in the following months, can be alleviated with black currant, chokeberry, quince or orange juices. It is also not uncommon to recommend using marjoram or peppermint ointment for a runny [nose during pregnancy](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy/katar-w-ciazy-jak-sie-pozbyc-uporczywej-dolegliwosci). Baking soda inhalations are also effective, which cleanses and moisturizes the mucous membrane. A humidifier or ionizer with a few drops of essential oils is often placed in the room where the pregnant woman is staying. If there are no contraindications, a good method is to use onion or garlic syrups, which are considered an antibiotic of natural origin.  See also: [Causes and characteristics of discharge during pregnancy](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/uplawy-w-ciazy-charakterystyka-oraz-przyczyny) --- --- title: "Epidural anesthesia – summary of advantages and disadvantages" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/pregnancy-zone-2/pregnancy-advice/epidural-anesthesia-summary-of-advantages-and-disadvantages" lang: "pl" type: "pregnancy_zone" description: "Epidural anesthesia (epidural) is quite controversial among moms-to-be.

An experienced anesthesiologist is able to administer such anesthesia in an appropriate manner so that the woman feels as little discomfort as possible. But what are its advantages and disadvantages? Is it safe for a woman and her baby to be administered such a drug?

All the knowledge in a nutshell! Epidural anesthesia for labor is used to block pain in a specific part of the body. The procedure involves injecting anesthetics **into the epidural space of the spine,** resulting in loss of sensation of pain while leaving the patient conscious and able to interact. During an epidural, the doctor anesthetizes the skin and then uses a thin needle to place a catheter through which anesthetics are administered. **This allows for a controlled and continuous delivery of an**esthetics, which is particularly useful in situations where the length of labor is unpredictable. This catheter is located in the epidural space of the spinal canal in the lumbar spine. The entire procedure of administering an epidural for labor takes about 10 minutes. However,** the analgesic effect can last up to 2 hours.** If the labor action has not completed by then, the anesthesiologist administers more anesthesia through the catheter. The use of this type of anesthesia in obstetrics has become very popular, as it provides effective pain relief during natural childbirth and cesarean section, **allowing the mother to remain conscious and actively participate in the birth of her baby.** However, it is worth noting that, like any medical procedure, epidural anesthesia is associated with certain complications, which should always be discussed with the attending physician. Contraindications to epidural anesthesia include, but are not limited to: - thrombocytopenia, - Skin infection at the injection site, - blood clotting disorders, - [hypertension](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/nadcisnienie-w-ciazy-jakie-moze-miec-konsekwencje), - congenital heart defects, - epilepsy, - spinal degeneration. ## Epidural anesthesia – where is it administered and when? Epidural anesthesia is administered under local anesthesia into the spinal canal. As the anesthetic drug makes its way up and down the spinal cord, it blocks nerve conduction and, simply put, blocks pain. The anesthesiologist **selects a thin needle and efficiently inserts it into the intervertebral space of the pregnant woman. **A catheter is also usually inserted, through which further doses of anesthetic drug are administered if necessary. Epidural anesthesia in childbirth must be given at the right time. There are two schools of thought about the timing of this anesthesia. Some argue that anesthesia just after labor begins can negatively affect the progress of labor. Others, on the other hand, believe that with a cervical dilation of more than 8 cm, it is too late for this. In general, epidural anesthesia during labor **is administered until the cervical dilation is less than 10 cm, provided that the baby’s head is still deep in the birth canal** and the labor action itself is not yet advanced. There is another type of anesthesia that is often combined with this epidural in cesareans – namely, subarachnoid anesthesia. Of course, before each, the anesthesiologist administers local anesthesia with an ointment that induces only a cooling sensation. The doctor then asks to make a cat’s back and gently pokes into the spinal canal. ## Positive effects of epidural anesthesia The benefits of epidural anesthesia include: - safety for mother and child, - Minimal doses of anesthetics cause maximum action, - Reduction of labor pain by 80%, which significantly increases the comfort of labor, - anesthetics do not enter the bloodstream of the pregnant woman, so immediately after delivery you can breastfeed your newborn without fear, - does not stupefy, the woman actively and consciously participates in the entire birth of her child, - A woman after continuous epidural anesthesia is not as tired from the labor action as women who give birth naturally without anesthesia, - quick return to form.

These include: - The risk of complications (e.g., slowing the progress of labor, or weakening of the lower extremities); - a drop in a pregnant woman’s blood pressure, which can directly affect the heart rate of a tiny baby, - [severe dizziness](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/jak-dbac-o-siebie-w-ciazy/zawroty-glowy-w-ciazy), - weakening of labor contractions requiring artificial administration of oxytocin, - The high cost of the procedure, - postpartum back pain. With epidural anesthesia, complications are possible in the form of back pain at the prick site,** slowed heart rate (bradycardia), problems with urination or vomiting**. However, the side effects of epidural anesthesia can be much more serious. In rare cases, consequences such as: - meningitis, - Paralysis of the upper and lower extremities, - A hematoma in the epidural space, - anterior spinal artery syndrome. ## A guide for moms-to-be – when to consider an epidural for childbirth? - When a woman** experiences severe pain that is difficult to bear.** An epidural is often an effective way to relieve it. - In cases where **labor is prolonged**, anesthesia can help the mother rest and gather strength for the stage of pushing the baby out. - Epidural anesthesia is the preferred method of anesthesia in situations where the **need for [a cesarean section](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy/cesarskie-ciecie-wszystko-co-warto-wiedziec) arises.** - Past experience with childbirth, health problems or other medical issues – it is not uncommon for these to influence the attending physician’s decision to choose this type of anesthesia. However, it should be noted that this type of anesthesia should not be used right away. Every woman should have the chance to first benefit from non-pharmacological methods of pain relief that are neutral to the course of labor. ## FAQ: - **What are the side effects of epidurals?** Complications are unfortunately often associated with this type of procedure. We can include, among others: severe dizziness, postpartum back pain, a drop in the blood pressure of the pregnant woman, a slowdown in the progress of labor, or weakness (and sometimes paralysis) of the lower limbs. - **Is it safe to use an epidural?** Epidural anesthesia for childbirth is considered safe for both mom and baby. - **Epidural anesthesia – how long does it last?** The use of epidural anesthesia in the correct way can provide relief to the patient throughout labor. After the drug is administered, the initial effects usually appear within a few minutes, and its full effect is usually achieved within 10-20 minutes. --- --- title: "How to treat a cold in pregnancy?

Rarely, complaints are observed on the right and left sides simultaneously. Ovarian prickling can occur at any stage of pregnancy, although it is observed more often in the early stages. ## Stabbing of the ovary during pregnancy Ovarian pain in pregnancy is a colloquial term used by mothers-to-be for discomfort felt in the lower abdomen and pelvic area. It’s a common occurrence, but one that often causes concern for both the mother’s health and the baby’s life. There are a number of reasons for the so-called “so called. “a sore ovary in pregnancy.” Some of them are determined by the physiology of pregnancy and are the body’s natural response to changes under the influence of hormones. However, the group of other factors includes a variety of pathological conditions, sometimes signaling premature birth or abortion. A prickling sensation in the ovary in pregnancy can occur at any stage of pregnancy, but the ailment is more commonly observed in the first trimester. Discomfort in the lower abdomen usually appears on one side, in the area where the ovary is located. Rarely, right and left ovarian pain is observed simultaneously in pregnancy. It is a good idea to inform the doctor in charge of the pregnancy about any episode of stabbing pain or other symptoms from the reproductive system. ## Ovarian pain at the beginning of pregnancy – normal and ectopic (i.e. ectopic) pregnancy Ovarian pain in early pregnancy is usually a physiological, natural and common symptom, as long as the discomfort is not accompanied by other symptoms such as fever or discharge. The phenomenon is associated with the implantation of a fertilized egg in the uterine cavity. The new structure, which is nearly 5 cm in size, functions in its form until ca. 18 weeks of pregnancy. At this time, it is not only the presence and implantation of the embryo that causes discomfort. Ovarian prickling is felt as a result of the enlarging uterus and stretching of its ligaments due to increased progesterone levels during this phase of pregnancy. Of no small importance in perceiving painful stimuli and interpreting them as ovarian pain is the phenomenon of the uterine walls pushing against the peritoneum of the organs lying in its immediate vicinity. Ovarian pain at the beginning of pregnancy caused by normal, physiological processes usually resolves spontaneously within a few weeks. However, ovarian pain in early pregnancy can also occur for other reasons. Similar complaints include [ectopic pregnancy](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy/ciaza-pozamaciczna-objawy-i-przebieg-ciazy-ektopowej), also known as [ectopic](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy/ciaza-pozamaciczna-objawy-i-przebieg-ciazy-ektopowej) pregnancy. Such a condition means that the embryo has nested in the wrong place, other than the uterine wall, such as the fallopian tube. In this situation, there is a sharp, intensifying stabbing of the ovary in early pregnancy. The condition requires surgical intervention. Failure to perform the procedure risks perforation of the fallopian tube, which endangers the life of the mother. ## Ovarian pain in early pregnancy – miscarriage, appendage disease Lower abdominal pain in pregnancy can also be a signal of an impending miscarriage. The complaints are spasmodic and diffuse in nature. They are often accompanied by spotting and bleeding from the genital tract. “Ovarian prickling” at the beginning of pregnancy can also be the result of cysts on the ovaries. In this case, the discomfort is lighter and irregular, and the lesions themselves, which resemble sacs filled with body fluid, disappear during or after pregnancy. Ovarian pain in pregnancy also causes inflammation of the appendages caused by a variety of pathogenic microorganisms. --- --- title: "22 Week of pregnancy – what does the baby look like and how much does it weigh?

A week of pregnancy is primarily associated with growing breasts and swollen legs and feet. Swelling is reduced by gentle movement combined with rest, during which it is a good idea to lift the legs higher.

This is primarily due to the accumulation of more amniotic fluid in the uterus. **Daytime naps will have a positive effect on your mood.** Typically, when mom is asleep, the toddler is most active, and he, in turn, usually sleeps when mom is moving.

This breakthrough not only increases access to allogeneic stem cell transplantation for adults with blood cancers such as leukemias and myelodysplastic syndromes when no suitable donor cells are available, but also marks another step forward in overcoming the traditional limitations of cord blood stem cells.** Umbilical cord blood stem cells are already used in the treatment of more than 80 severe hematological and oncological diseases. However, critics have often raised the concern that, due to the limited number of cells, cord blood could only serve as a source for transplantation in smaller pediatric patients up to a certain body weight. Scientists, however, are once again helping to overcome this challenge. _Cord blood has long been used in the treatment of hematological diseases. The cord blood transplantation performed with today’s standards offers several advantages in selected patients. The early experience with expanded cord blood is very good – the retrospective study has shown that it has the significantly lower risk of relapse and graft versus host disease than most of the other stem cell sources. If the results are confirmed in currently ongoing prospective trial it will be the biggest news in hematology since CAR-T therapy was introduced – the possibility of getting to full health almost two times more patients that it is possible with current standards is truly groundbreaking news for patients and doctors c_omments professor Emilian Snarski, hematologists, transplantologists and Medical Director within of Famicord Group.  Zemcelpro® (formerly known as UM171) is an innovative, personalized stem cell transplant product based on a unique technology that expands hematopoietic stem cells from a single cord blood unit. The therapy combines UM171-expanded CD34+ cells with unexpanded CD34− cells, both originating from the same cord blood unit, developed by ExCellThera.  Each year in Europe, more than 10,000 patients are diagnosed with hematological malignancies such as leukemias and myelodysplastic syndromes that require a stem cell transplant. Despite significant progress in donor availability, many patients still cannot access a suitable transplant. For many of them using cord blood stem cell was the only chance for life saving stem cell transplantation. Sometimes however cord blood unit contained too few cells to be transplanted and could not be used alone. With the authorization of new drug even relatively small cord blood units can be used for patients to regain their health. _For FamiCord Group, the European Commission’s authorization of expanding stem cell procedure- is not only a milestone for global cell therapy but also a confirmation that cord blood stem cells are breaking through long-standing limitations. “As Europe’s largest family cord blood bank and an active partner in the development of advanced therapies, we are proud to see cord blood increasingly recognized as a valuable and versatile source of stem cells. This breakthrough strengthens our mission to provide patients and their families with access to innovative treatments and new hope for recovery” – _admits Tomasz Baran, Chief Medical Officer, FamiCord Group. This milestone is a clear sign that cord blood is overcoming long-standing limitations. With the availability of stem cell expansion procedures, every unit of cord blood becomes even more valuable.  **About Conditional Marketing Authorizations (CMAs)** CMAs are for medicines that fulfil a significant unmet medical need such as being for serious and life-threatening diseases, where no satisfactory treatment methods are available or where the medicine offers a major therapeutic advantage. A CMA is granted where comprehensive clinical data is not yet complete, but the benefit of the medicine to address a significant unmet need outweighs the need for data that will become available in the future. CMAs are valid for one year and renewable annually with ongoing regulatory review of data. **About FamiCord Group** FamiCord Group is Europe’s largest family cord blood bank and a leading provider of advanced stem cell solutions. With a strong focus on innovation and patient care, the Group offers cord blood and tissue banking, as well as participates in the development of advanced cellular therapies.

How is the fetus developing? ## Week 23 of pregnancy – what month is it? Entering the 23rd week of pregnancy, the mother-to-be begins the 6th month, or 2nd trimester. This is one of the more pleasant periods. The unpleasant discomforts that accompanied the earlier months are subsiding. The abdomen is starting to become more visible. The baby’s senses are already developed, its movements are more intense and perceptible to the mother-to-be. You can even see the baby’s facial expressions during the [ultrasound](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/choroby-w-ciazy/nieinwazyjne-i-inwazyjne-badanie-prenatalne-w-ciazy-dlaczego-wyniki-tych-badan-sa-istotne-przy-pobieraniu-krwi-pepowinowej). There are 3 months left until the solution, which can be spent preparing and building an emotional bond with the child. The mother-to-be can start preparing for childbirth. This is a good time to find a hospital and also enroll in a birthing school.  Worth reading: [How to prepare for childbirth?](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/jak-przygotowac-sie-do-porodu-wskazowki-do-porodu-naturalnego-i-cesarskiego-ciecia) – Tips for natural childbirth and cesarean section. ## Weight of the baby at 23 weeks of pregnancy At 23 weeks of pregnancy, the baby is about 25-30 cm long (counting with legs).  The body is already shaped and has the correct proportions, which can be seen on ultrasound. The baby’s weight at 23 weeks gestation is approx. 500 g. Most of the organs are already developed, but they are still developing.  ## Baby movements at 23 weeks of pregnancy. How often should they occur? The 23rd week of pregnancy is the period when a woman not only notices changes in her body, but also feels the baby’s movements more intensely. The fetus begins to move more and more violently. It is worth remembering that during this period he sleeps 20 hours a day. During the rest of the time, he keeps vigil by moving around. Weak baby movements at 23 weeks of pregnancy may not be felt by some moms. The baby moves in the mother’s belly, exercising the muscles in the process.  Clear movements of the baby are observed by mothers-to-be when changing positions or eating, most often while consuming something sweet. There is no rule as to how often the baby’s movements should occur during this period, but if anything worries the mother-to-be, she should go to the doctor, who will perform the necessary tests. The baby at 23 weeks of pregnancy also has well-developed senses, so it receives more stimuli from outside. This is the period when the excretory system begins to produce stool, which consists of fetal smear, fetal waters, exfoliated gastrointestinal epithelium, and bilirubin. ## 23 Week of pregnancy – what does the baby look like? At 23 weeks of pregnancy, the fetal body is shaped and resembles that of a small human being. If born at that time, it is treated as a premature baby, and with current medical developments it has a chance of survival.  The baby already has developed arms, legs, as well as internal organs. Its skin is covered with fetal smear, which protects it from soaking up amniotic fluid. At this stage of fetal development, the skin is still red because of the formation of blood vessels. It is also thin and wrinkled. Note that the fastest weight gain for a baby is in the last month. Until then, it accumulates the necessary fatty tissue, which will make the skin thicker and less red. ## How does the body change during the 23rd week of pregnancy? Belly of the mother-to-be The 23rd week of pregnancy is a good time to enroll in a birthing school that prepares you well for childbirth. The enlarging abdomen begins to put pressure on the urinary bladder, causing the mother-to-be to visit the toilet more often. The abdomen in circumference counts approx. 80-90 cm, is more rounded and located high. It will begin to decrease at the end of pregnancy, when the baby is ready to come into the world. Due to her growing breasts and belly, the mother-to-be increasingly needs to find suitable body positions in which she is comfortable.  In the 23rd week of pregnancy there are spinal pains, especially in the lumbar region. If there are no contraindications, the mother-to-be can start doing gentle exercises to strengthen this section. It is worth exercising systematically, as the baby will gain more weight in the following months. During this period, the mother-to-be may experience increased, irregular uterine contractions. Most often they subside during a change of position or spontaneously after a few minutes. They are delicate and may not occur in every pregnant woman.  Pregnancy period is also a lot of changes that can appear on the skin of the mother-to-be. At 23 weeks of pregnancy, hyperpigmentation may be more apparent, which occurs due to hormonal changes. During this period, it is a good idea to protect your skin from the sun’s harmful rays. Creams with high sunscreens (at least 30 SPF) will work. It is worth remembering that the sun’s rays work not only in summer.  In the 23rd week of pregnancy, muscle cramps, mainly in the calves, may occur. They are often indicative of mineral and vitamin deficiencies in a woman’s body. It is then worth reaching for products rich in magnesium and potassium. If you want to use supplementation, it is necessary to consult a doctor.  ## Ailments at 23 weeks of pregnancy Each period of pregnancy is characterized by different symptoms. In the 23rd week of pregnancy, a woman has more energy, but various persistent discomforts appear. Among them can be distinguished: - Heartburn and bloating, - constipation, - headaches, - Itchy skin on the abdomen, - Swelling of the face, legs and hands, - larger breasts, - sleep problems. Hormones are responsible for most of them, as well as the changing body of the mother-to-be. If they are bothersome, a woman should rest a lot in a position that is comfortable for her. For heartburn, it is worth using flaxseed jelly, which cushions the mucous membrane, reducing the backflow of gastric contents into the throat. If heartburn occurs at night, the mother-to-be should lay her head higher on the pillows.  ## Week 23 of pregnancy – what tests should be performed? Around the 23rd week of pregnancy, a blood glucose test should be performed to determine whether the mother-to-be is suffering from gestational diabetes. It is also worth performing basic urine tests. For women with Rh- blood type, in addition, the level of anti-Rh antibodies should be determined. This is also the moment to test for toxoplasmosis. In addition, the mother-to-be should regularly attend an ultrasound, which will show how the fetus is developing.  ## 23 week of pregnancy – the weight of the future mother Pregnant mom-to-be is gaining weight. Optimal growth during the entire pregnancy should be 10-15 kg, at the beginning of the 6th month – 4-6 kg. However, it is important to remember that every woman is different, and whether the weight is correct should be assessed by a doctor.  A pregnant woman should take care of proper nutrition. It is not true that one should eat for two during this period. During the second trimester of pregnancy, the additional caloric requirement is approx. 350 kcal. At 23 weeks of pregnancy, women have a greater appetite as nausea and vomiting cease. However, it is worth eating rationally so as not to gain too much weight. More weight can also exacerbate back pain and calf cramps. The diet of a mother-to-be should be balanced and varied. The menu must include meals rich in iron, magnesium and potassium.  See also: [24 weeks of pregnancy – the appearance and behavior of the baby.](https://www.pbkm.pl/pregnancy-zone-2/kalendarz-ciazy/24-tydzien-ciazy-jakie-zmiany-zachodza-w-organizmie-dziecka) --- --- title: "Katarzyna Zasada" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/experts/authors/katarzyna-zasada" lang: "pl" type: "experts" last_modified: "2024-10-08T08:58:50+00:00" translations: pl: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/experts/authors/katarzyna-zasada" custom_fields: expert_user_account: 4 --- # Katarzyna Zasada --- --- title: "Terms and conditions of the ‘Partners for Conscious Parenting’ campaign" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/conscious-parenting/terms-and-conditions" lang: "pl" type: "page" last_modified: "2024-10-02T12:52:20+00:00" translations: pl: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/conscious-parenting/terms-and-conditions" --- # Terms and conditions of the ‘Partners for Conscious Parenting’ campaign # Regulamin Akcji „Partnerzy Świadomego Rodzicielstwa” #### § 1.

Często stajemy w obliczu problemów zdrowotnych, które negatywnie zaskakują i zmieniają naszą codzienność. Chociaż wiele schorzeń jest możliwa do leczenia za pomocą tradycyjnych metod, nie zawsze przynoszą one oczekiwane efekty. Dlatego postęp w dziedzinie medycyny otworzył przed nami nowe perspektywy, dając nadzieję na lepsze jutro. Kluczem do takiej nadziei są komórki macierzyste W Gorzowie Wielkopolskim pochodzące z krwi pępowinowej, łożyska oraz komórki mezenchymalne ze sznura pępowinowego. Dzięki nim wielu pacjentom, zarówno najmłodszym, jak i ich bliskim, udało się odzyskać zdrowie i jakość życia.   **W Polskim Banku Komórek Macierzystych specjalizujemy się w gromadzeniu i przechowywaniu tego cennego materiału biologicznego, który może zostać użyty w kluczowych momentach leczenia.** Zadbaj o przyszłość i bezpieczeństwo swoich bliskich już teraz, inwestując w ich zdrowie na nadchodzące lata. Przekonaj się, że bankowanie komórek macierzystych z krwi pępowinowej i pozyskiwany w ten sposób materiał biologiczny może stać się nieocenioną inwestycją w przyszłość Twojego dziecka i całej rodziny. ## Nasi konsultanci - ![magdalena-drozda](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/magdalena-drozda.webp) Konsultant Medyczny Magdalena Drozda [ magdalena.drozda@pbkm.pl ](mailto:magdalena.drozda@pbkm.pl) [ 512 879 127 ](tel:512 879 127) Dialogue window Back ![magdalena-drozda](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/magdalena-drozda.webp) Konsultant Medyczny Magdalena Drozda [ magdalena.drozda@pbkm.pl ](mailto:magdalena.drozda@pbkm.pl) [ 512 879 127 ](tel:512 879 127) ## Komórki macierzyste Gorzów Wielkopolski – dlaczego są tak cenne? Komórki macierzyste sznura pępowinowego i krwi to nieocenione narzędzie w medycynie nowoczesnej. **Są kluczowym składnikiem w leczeniu wielu chorób – od nowotworów, poprzez schorzenia krwi, aż po choroby neurologiczne czy reumatyczne.** ![molekuly-na-rece](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/molekuly-na-rece.webp) Kiedy mówimy o komórkach macierzystych, często myślimy o ich zdolności do przekształcania się w różne typy komórek potrzebnych w leczeniu choroby. Warto jednak podkreślić, że komórki macierzyste z krwi pępowinowej różnią się od tych ze sznura pępowinowego. Te pierwsze, będące źródłem komórek krwiotwórczych, służą głównie w leczeniu schorzeń hematologicznych, dzięki ich zdolności do tworzenia nowych komórek krwi. Z kolei komórki ze sznura pępowinowego, bogate w mezenchymalne komórki macierzyste, mają zdolność różnicowania się w komórki tkanki kostnej, chrzęstnej czy tłuszczowej, co sprawia, że znajdują zastosowanie w medycynie regeneracyjnej. **Za pomocą przeszczepień komórek macierzystych, pacjenci z chorobami krwi mają szansę na nowe życie.** W wielu przypadkach przeszczepienia komórek macierzystych od żywego dawcy komórek krwiotwórczych staje się jedyną szansą na wyzdrowienie. W niektórych sytuacjach autologiczny przeszczep komórek macierzystych, gdzie dawcą jest sam pacjent, może okazać się kluczowym rozwiązaniem. **Wykorzystanie komórek krwiotwórczych szpiku jest kluczowe w procesach regeneracji i odnawiania tkanki. W układzie autologicznym komórek krwiotwórczych, komórki dawcy i biorcy są identyczne genetycznie.**   Polski Bank Komórek Macierzystych jest miejscem, gdzie następuje bankowanie komórek macierzystych sznura pępowinowego, które mogą bezpiecznie czekać na moment, gdy będą mogły uratować życie. To inwestycja w przyszłość, która daje nadzieję na zdrowie i lepsze jutro. **Decydując się na przechowywanie krwi pępowinowej, inwestujesz w przyszłość i zdrowie swojego dziecka, rodzeństwa oraz innych członków rodziny.** ## Pobranie, przechowywanie i leczenie komórkami macierzystymi – zabezpiecz przyszłość swojej rodziny PBKM, lider w dziedzinie przechowywania komórek macierzystych w Polsce i Europie, choć swoją główną bazę ma w Warszawie, nie zapomina o innych regionach kraju. Województwo lubuskie i główne miasto Gorzów Wielkopolski to jedno z tych miejsc, gdzie Rodzice mogą skorzystać z naszej oferty. Podstawowym celem działalności jest dostępność tej nowoczesnej metody dla jak największej liczby rodzin, uświadamiając im jej znaczenie oraz korzyści płynące z przechowywania komórek macierzystych.   Dlaczego warto zdecydować się na to rozwiązanie? **Komórki macierzyste z krwi pępowinowej czy sznura pępowinowego stanowią bezcenny materiał biologiczny, który może okazać się kluczowy w leczeniu wielu chorób. Właśnie dlatego chcemy, by każda rodzina miała możliwość zabezpieczenia się, myśląc przede wszystkim o zdrowiu i przyszłości swojego dziecka oraz całej rodziny.**   **Nasze pakiety zostały starannie przygotowane, aby sprostać wymaganiom Rodziców.** Zawierają one kompletny zestaw umożliwiające bezpieczne pobranie krwi pępowinowej. **Gwarantujemy najwyższą jakość świadczonych usług na każdym etapie procesu** – od pobrania, przez transport, aż po przechowywanie w specjalistycznych warunkach. ## Lokalizacja – Gorzów Wielkopolski --- --- title: "Cord blood and stem cell banking Rzeszow" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/cord-blood-and-stem-cell-banking-rzeszow" lang: "pl" type: "page" last_modified: "2024-06-25T14:50:07+00:00" translations: pl: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/cord-blood-and-stem-cell-banking-rzeszow" --- # Cord blood and stem cell banking Rzeszow # Bankowanie krwi pępowinowej i komórek macierzystych Rzeszów ## Bankowanie krwi pępowinowej i komórek macierzystych Rzeszów Czy istnieje materiał biologiczny, który jest w stanie wyleczyć ponad 80 ciężkich chorób? Otóż tak! Nowoczesna medycyna regeneracyjna **oferuje pacjentom bankowanie komórek macierzystych z krwi pępowinowej i sznura, które to pobrać można tuż po porodzie**. Większość osób pewnie kojarzy te drogocenne jednostki, ponieważ są one stosowane w m.in. w medycynie estetycznej i kosmetologii, lecz wówczas pozyskuje się je z własnej krwi pacjenta oraz jego tkanki tłuszczowej. Komórki macierzyste sznura pępowinowego i krwi znacznie jednak różnią się od tych z krwi obwodowej, tkanki tłuszczowej czy też szpiku kostnego. **Mają one bowiem o wiele większą zdolność do różnicowania się w wyspecjalizowane jednostki i tkanki.** W PBKM zajmujemy się ich przechowywaniem oraz preparowaniem w razie konieczności transplantacji.

Medycznych Dagmara Chamera [ dagmara.chamera@pbkm.pl ](mailto:dagmara.chamera@pbkm.pl) [ 500 155 950 ](tel:500 155 950) ## Komórki macierzyste z krwi pępowinowej a sznura – jaka jest różnica między nimi? Zarówno krew pępowinowa, jak i sznur są drogocennymi źródłami tychże jednostek, niemniej jest pewna różnica. Sznur zawiera w sobie **mezenchymalne komórki macierzyste, które wykazują większą zdolność do przekształcania się w inne typy komórek** np. nerwowe, chrzęstne czy kostne. Z tego też powodu są one stosowane przeważnie w leczeniu uszkodzeń stawów, degradacji nerwów czy ubytków kostnych. Te preparowane z krwi pępowinowej natomiast **używane są w odbudowie układu krwionośnego czy odpornościowego**. Znalazły one swoje powołanie głównie w leczeniu rozmaitych nowotworów, szczególnie związanych z krwią i komórkami systemu immunologicznego – lecz nie tylko. Równie istotną rozbieżnością między tymi komórkami macierzystymi jest **zgodność z układem innych członków rodziny**. Jednostki pozyskiwane ze sznura są kompatybilne zarówno z organizmem dziecka, jak i jego bliskich. W przypadku komórek z krwi identyczność z tymi osobami nie zawsze występuje, dlatego też przed decyzją podjęcia leczenia należy wykonać specjalne testy zgodności. ## Leczenie komórkami macierzystymi – ponad 80 ciężkich chorób! Bankowanie komórek macierzystych sznura pępowinowego i krwi to inwestycja w przyszłość. Mogą one bowiem z dużą skutecznością wyleczyć takie choroby jak, m.in.: ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/CheckCircle.svg) Ostre i przewlekłe białaczki, ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/CheckCircle.svg) Zespół mielodysplastyczny, ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/CheckCircle.svg) Choroby spowodowane defektem komórki macierzystej, ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/CheckCircle.svg) Zespoły mieloproliferacyjne, ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/CheckCircle.svg) Zespoły rozrostowe układu chłonnego, ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/CheckCircle.svg) Choroby fagocytów, ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/CheckCircle.svg) Choroby związane z zaburzeniem lub brakiem funkcji enzymów, ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/CheckCircle.svg) Dziedziczne zaburzenia krwinek płytkowych, ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/CheckCircle.svg) Choroby komórek plazmatycznych, ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/CheckCircle.svg) Dziedziczne anomalie krwinek czerwonych, ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/CheckCircle.svg) Dziedziczne zaburzenia układu odpornościowego, ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/CheckCircle.svg) Histiocytozy. A to tylko krótki wycinek całej listy! Warto wiedzieć, że badania i eksperymenty, gdzie w roli głównej występują komórki macierzyste, trwają i możliwe, że kiedyś będziemy w stanie poddać terapii niemalże każdą chorobę z ich użyciem. Co ciekawe, **w Australii w 2013 roku po raz pierwszy udało się wyhodować z nich mininerkę, która pracowała prawidłowo**. Co zatem wie, co przyniesie przyszłość? Czy będzie to rewolucja w transplantologii dająca szansę na lepsze jutro? Jest to bardzo prawdopodobny scenariusz. ![molekuly-na-rece](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/molekuly-na-rece.webp) ## Przechowywanie krwi pępowinowej i sznura (województwo podkarpackie) – jak przebiega ich pobieranie? Pobranie krwi pępowinowej i sznura może odbyć się praktycznie w każdym szpitalu w Polsce – wystarczy wcześniej powiadomić o tym położną lub lekarza. Zabieg ten jest bezbolesny i ma miejsce po porodzie. Pozyskany wówczas materiał biologiczny zostaje umieszczony w specjalnych pojemnikach, a następnie przetransportowany do naszego laboratorium, gdzie zostaje dokładnie przebadany.

Choć w przypadku ciężkiej przypadłości można je pobrać od potencjalnego dawcy i następnie przeszczepić biorcy, to **istnieje jeszcze jedna możliwość, która daje szansę na owocną przyszłość.** Jest nią pobranie krwi pępowinowej oraz sznura po porodzie dziecka. Te dwa materiały biologiczne stanowią drogocenne źródło tychże komórek, które dodatkowo są zgodne z organizmem malucha, jak i niekiedy z układem jego krewnych.   Aby jednostki te mogły zachować swoją funkcjonalność, **muszą być przechowywane w optymalnych dla nich warunkach – i tym między innymi zajmujemy się w PBKM.** Oczywiście to tylko część naszej pracy, oprócz tego bowiem zapewniamy odizolowanie komórek macierzystych oraz ich transport. ## Bankowanie komórek macierzystych z krwi pępowinowej i sznura – inwestycja w przyszłość Życie pisze rozmaite scenariusze, a ta złożona fabuła zaskoczyłaby niejednego krytyka. Nie brakuje w nim radości, płaczu, zwrotów akcji i – niestety – różnych chorób, które mogą wywrócić codzienne funkcjonowanie dziecka oraz jego Rodziców całkowicie do góry nogami. Niektóre z tych schorzeń są łatwe w terapii i nie powodują takiego zamętu, inne natomiast wymagają lat hospitalizacji. **W tej sytuacji pomocne, a wręcz niekiedy konieczne, może okazać się leczenie komórkami macierzystymi.** Tutaj jednak pojawia się pewne „ale”, którym jest zgodność między dawcą a biorcą. Szukanie dawcy o identycznym układzie to walka z czasem, który wówczas jest na wagę złota.   Komórki macierzyste z krwi pępowinowej oraz sznura pępowinowego, w przeciwieństwie do tych znajdujących się w szpiku kostnym dawcy, **są zawsze kompatybilne z organizmem malucha, co sprawia, że terapię można podjąć w trybie natychmiastowym.** Ponadto ryzyko odrzucenia transplantacji jest praktycznie znikome. Ten drogocenny materiał biologiczny kiedyś traktowany był jako niepotrzebny odpad, dziś jednak wiemy, że jest zabezpieczeniem dla dziecka, dzięki któremu będzie mogło osiągać swoje cele i cieszyć się urokami życia bez zbędnych zmartwień. ## Przechowywanie krwi pępowinowej i sznura – szansa na wyleczenie aż 80 chorób Terapia z użyciem komórek macierzystych może zostać przeprowadzona u szerokiej grupy pacjentów. Te jednostki mogą bowiem wyleczyć ponad 80 nieprawidłowości o wszelakim podłożu. **Przeznaczenie lecznicze uzależnione jest od źródła ich pozyskania.** Komórki z krwi pępowinowej stosuje się przeważnie u chorych, którzy cierpią na patologie układu krwionośnego i immunologicznego w celu odbudowania tychże systemów. Komórki macierzyste sznura pępowinowego, zwane inaczej mezenchymalnymi, wykorzystuje się natomiast w medycynie regeneracyjnej, ponieważ są w stanie odbudować neurony, stawy i kości. Z tego też względu znalazły swoje powołanie w licznych terapiach eksperymentalnych i badaniach o m.in. chorobie zwyrodnieniowej stawów czy nawet dziecięcym porażeniu mózgowym.   Co ciekawe, w przypadku zachorowania, **te dwa rodzaje jednostek można przeszczepić jednocześnie, osiągając bardzo obiecujące rezultaty.** Zdarza się tak zwłaszcza w sytuacji stosunkowo małej liczby krwiotwórczych komórek macierzystych z krwi pępowinowej. ![zestaw-do-pozyskania-i-transportu-krwi-pepowinowej-i-sznura-pepowinowego](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/zestaw-do-pozyskania-i-transportu-krwi-pepowinowej-i-sznura-pepowinowego.webp) ## Bankowanie komórek macierzystych sznura pępowinowego i krwi (Bydgoszcz) – kompleksowa usługa Niezależnie od tego, czy to województwo kujawsko-pomorskie, czy inne zlokalizowane na mapie Polski – komórki macierzyste z obu tych materiałów, można pobrać w każdym szpitalu.

Niemniej nie każdy jeszcze zdaje sobie sprawę, że **jednostki te można pobierać również przy porodzie ze sznura pępowinowego oraz krwi pępowinowej**. Takie rozwiązanie jest zabezpieczeniem swojego malucha, jak i całej rodziny. Dlaczego? Ponieważ w porównaniu do szpiku, wspomniane materiały biologiczne są w 100% zgodne z układem dziecka, a w przypadku sznura – także i innych bliskich. ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/info-white-icon.svg) **Bankowanie komórek macierzystych z krwi pępowinowej oraz sznura pępowinowego to inwestycja w przyszłość**. Materiał można wykorzystać bowiem w dowolnym momencie i przeszczepić, jeżeli istnieją do tego przesłanki terapeutyczne. Gdzie przechowasz komórki swojej pociechy? W specjalistycznym laboratorium PBKM! ## Komórki macierzyste z krwi pępowinowej i sznura – przeszczep bez dawcy Leczenie komórkami macierzystymi ze szpiku kostnego uratowało życie wielu pacjentów, jednakże znalezienie dawcy z odpowiednią zgodnością układów to nie lada zadanie. Przy niektórych schorzeniach ograniczeniem jest czas, który stanowi kluczową kwestię. Inaczej jest w przypadku komórek macierzystych pobieranych ze sznura oraz krwi pępowinowej. **Ich pokrewność bowiem z maluchem występuje zawsze – w zasadzie to on jest ich posiadaczem**. Co ciekawe, komórki mezenchymalne pozyskiwane ze sznura pępowinowego, są zgodne nie tylko z układem dziecka, ale i jego rodzeństwa, Rodziców, czy nawet dziadków. Omawiane komórki charakteryzują się o wiele większym potencjałem do namnażania oraz różnicowania, aczkolwiek w zupełnie inne zespoły tkanek niż te z krwi pępowinowej. Komórki macierzyste sznura pępowinowego przekształcają się w **przeważnie w komórki nerwowe oraz kostno-mięśniowego**. Z tego powodu sprawdzają się one w m.in. leczeniu urazów ortopedycznych lub patologii o naturze neurologicznej. **Komórki z krwi pępowinowej typują się natomiast w jednostki krwi**, dzięki czemu z powodzeniem naprawiają uszkodzenia układu krwionośnego. ![03_ZDJ_Z_BRZUSZKIEM](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/03_ZDJ_Z_BRZUSZKIEM.webp) ## Bankowanie komórek macierzystych sznura pępowinowego i krwi – województwo podlaskie Siedziba PBKM znajduje się w Warszawie, lecz nie jest to żadnym ograniczeniem. Zabieg pozyskiwania krwi pępowinowej oraz sznura może odbyć się w praktycznie każdym szpitalu w Polsce, w tym na Podlasiu – wystarczy poinformować o tym lekarza prowadzącego lub położną. Po urodzeniu dziecka materiał biologiczny zostaje pobrany, a następnie przetransportowany w specjalistycznym pojemniku do laboratorium, gdzie zespół PBKM bada go, aby mieć pewność, że kwalifikuje się do bankowania. Rodzice po kilku tygodniach dostaną wiadomość zwrotną. ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/info-white-icon.svg) Wiele przyszłych mam pewnie zastanawia się, czy pobranie krwi pępowinowej i sznura jest bezpieczne. **Zabieg ten nie stanowi żadnego ryzyka ani dla kobiety, ani dla dziecka**. Co więcej, jest on całkowicie bezbolesny i bezinwazyjny. ## Podaruj swojemu dziecku komórki macierzyste – Białystok Rodzice często pragną zabezpieczyć swoją pociechę na przyszłość – poduszka finansowa w postaci lokaty oszczędnościowej, inwestycja w mieszkanie czy zakup ubezpieczenia to kwestie, o których słyszy się nieustannie. Nie warto jednak w tym wszystkim zapominać o zdrowiu, które warunkuje cały nasz byt. Nawet jeżeli choroby nie są ciężkie, mogą utrudniać funkcjonowanie w dorosłym życiu. **Spraw swojemu maluchowi wyprawkę w owocne dorastanie – zapewnij mu dostęp do jego własnych komórek macierzystych.** Przechowywanie krwi pępowinowej oraz sznura to decyzja, która może uratować całą rodzinę.

This is because they can cure as many as 80 different diseases of all kinds – starting with acute and chronic leukemia, going to platelet abnormalities and ending with childhood cerebral palsy. **Compared to cells extracted from the bone marrow, these cells have great potential to proliferate and differentiate into individual tissues**. It is worth remembering, however, that they can only be harvested at birth, so the decision should be made fairly smoothly and, above all, consciously. **Stem cell banking from umbilical cord and blood is an investment in the future** – we encourage you to learn more about the offer of the largest facility for storage of biological material – PBKM. ## Stem cell therapy – biological material at a premium Stem cells from cord blood were first successfully used in 1988 in France, while a dozen years later this method was also practiced in Poland. **Currently, more than 60,000 transplants using these biological units have already been performed worldwide**, saving patients’ health or lives. Treatment with stem cells from umbilical cord blood and cord shows very high efficiency, as these cells have the ability to divide and type themselves into a variety of tissue assemblies. A particularly interesting research object for scientists is the umbilical cord. This specialized cord is a source of **mesenchymal cells, which are much more easily transformed into other types of cells**. They are currently being used, among other things. for experimental hospitalization of young patients with childhood cerebral palsy. ![mother_and_child](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/mother_and_child.webp) ## Cord blood collection – the course of the procedure The procedure is completely safe and non-invasive – after the baby is born, a trained midwife collects blood from the umbilical cord, and then places it in a designated container. The procedure can be performed in practically any hospital in Poland – regardless of whether it is the province where PBKM is headquartered, or the provinces of Lublin, Malopolska, Pomerania or any other province located on the map of our country. What then happens to this biological material? It is transported under optimal conditions to the laboratory, where it is thoroughly examined. Stem cell banking from cord blood and cord begins when all tests come out correctly and no contraindications to storage are detected. ## Umbilical cord and blood stem cell banking – is it worth it? Life writes different scenarios and it is worth preparing for unexpected twists and turns. These include. diseases that usually attack by surprise. Storing cord blood and cord **is an investment in the future, which can not only help the child, but also other family members – from Parents to grandparents**. Health is the most important thing, and no amount of money can buy it. For this reason, during pregnancy, it is worth thinking about the possibility of collecting cord blood and securing the umbilical cord – chances are there will be no second chance. ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/info-white-icon.svg) ## Let’s isolate stem cells together – Lublin Umbilical cord or placenta were once considered waste. **Today, however, these materials are a valuable life-saving gift of nature**. We encourage you to contact a PBKM representative in Lublin – he will discuss all indications and contraindications and try to dispel any doubts. ## Location – Lublin --- --- title: "Cord blood and stem cell banking Zielona Góra" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/cord-blood-and-stem-cell-banking-zielona-gora" lang: "pl" type: "page" last_modified: "2024-06-25T14:24:47+00:00" translations: pl: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/cord-blood-and-stem-cell-banking-zielona-gora" --- # Cord blood and stem cell banking Zielona Góra # Bankowanie krwi pępowinowej i komórek macierzystych Zielona Góra Zmiany w organizmie ludzkim mogą być spowodowane czynnikami genetycznymi, a pewne dolegliwości mogą stać się widoczne dopiero po wielu latach.

W 1896 roku natomiast Artur Pappenheim oraz Alexander Maximow określili w ten sposób komórki mogące wytworzyć krwinki. Dziś jednak wiemy, że pod tym pojęciem kryją się komórki, które **charakteryzują się zdolnością do samoodnowy i możliwością różnicowania się do różnych typów komórek dojrzałych**. Źródeł komórek macierzystych jest wiele – można je wypreparować ze szpiku kostnego, krwi obwodowej czy tkanki tłuszczowej. Niemniej to nie koniec! Istnieją jeszcze komórki macierzyste sznura pępowinowego oraz krwi pępowinowej. Jednostki te stosowane są **w leczeniu ciężkich chorób, które za pomocą tradycyjnych metod terapii charakteryzują się niestety zazwyczaj niepomyślnym rokowaniem**. Leczenie komórkami macierzystymi daje szansę całej rodzinie na spokojne życie, w którym nie ma miejsca na sytuacje bez wyjścia. ![iStock-625130494_Copy](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/iStock-625130494_Copy.webp) ## Bankowanie komórek macierzystych krwi pępowinowej i sznura – czy warto? Pobieranie i przechowywanie krwi pępowinowej czy sznura to poważna decyzja, aczkolwiek zdecydowanie warta podjęcia. Zastosowanie komórek macierzystych z tych dwóch materiałów jest obecnie bardzo szerokie m.in. w medycynie regeneracyjnej. Przeszczep opisywanych jednostek zapewnia regenerację tkanek, jak i komórek krwi, a kiedyś prawdopodobnie z ich użyciem możliwe będzie stworzenie dobrze i samodzielnie funkcjonującego narządu dedykowanego przede wszystkim do autotransplantacji. Bankowanie komórek macierzystych sznura pępowinowego i krwi pępowinowej jest zatem inwestycją w przyszłość, zarówno swojej pociechy, jak i ich rodzeństwa czy innych członków rodziny, np. dziadków. Terapia wykorzystująca komórki macierzyste ze sznura może być stosowana u każdego z bliskich, ponieważ nie uwzględnia się wówczas zgodności układowej. W przypadku tych pozyskiwanych z krwi należy najpierw wykonać specjalne testy potwierdzające wspomnianą identyczność. To, co jednak jest najważniejsze to fakt, iż komórki te są zawsze kompatybilne z organizmem malucha. ## Bankowanie komórek macierzystych z krwi pępowinowej (Szczecin) – wyprawka w przyszłość Większość osób kojarzy komórki macierzyste z tymi występującymi w szpiku kostnym, nie zdając sobie sprawy z tego, że można je pozyskać tuż przy porodzie. Sznur pępowinowy i krew to drogocenne źródła tychże jednostek, dzięki którym **możliwe jest przyspieszenie czasu leczenia ze względu na brak konieczności poszukiwania zgodnego dawcy**. Korzyści przechowywania krwi i sznura jest znacznie więcej – zachęcamy więc do skontaktowania się z naszym przedstawicielem w Szczecinie, który odpowie na wszystkie nurtujące pytania i przedstawi, jak wygląda cały proces. ## Lokalizacja – Szczecin --- --- title: "Cord blood and stem cell banking Łódź" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/cord-blood-and-stem-cell-banking-lodz" lang: "pl" type: "page" last_modified: "2024-06-25T14:12:18+00:00" translations: pl: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/cord-blood-and-stem-cell-banking-lodz" --- # Cord blood and stem cell banking Łódź # Bankowanie krwi pępowinowej i komórek macierzystych Łódź ## Bankowanie krwi pępowinowej i komórek macierzystych – Łódź W życiu jest wiele niepewnych, a jednym z takich aspektów jest zdrowie. Choroby zapisane są w naszych genach i zdarza się, że ujawniają się dopiero nawet w dorosłości. Niektóre z tych przypadłości są łatwe w leczeniu, inne natomiast wymagają lat hospitalizacji, która nie zawsze przynosi oczekiwane rezultaty. Czy można w jakiś sposób zabezpieczyć swoją rodzinę i zapewnić jej członkom lepsze rokowania w przypadku takiej ewentualności? **Bankowanie komórek macierzystych z krwi pępowinowej i sznura pępowinowego – oto odpowiedź.** Tym między innymi zajmujemy się w PBKM. ## Nasi konsultanci - ![karolina-mrozowicz](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/karolina-mrozowicz.webp) Ekspert ds.

Większość Rodziców przygotowując się na przyjście malucha na świat, stara się zorganizować mu jak najlepsze warunki do rozwoju – poduszka finansowa, nakład w mieszkanie bądź zakup ubezpieczenia to najczęstsze kroki podejmowane w tym celu. Niemniej nie można zapominać również o zdrowiu, dzięki któremu dziecko będzie mogło z dumą zdobywać świat bez żadnych ograniczeń. Komórki macierzyste ze sznura pępowinowego i krwi pępowinowej to bezcenny materiał biologiczny, który jest w stanie wyleczyć wiele ciężkich nieprawidłowości o rozmaitym podłożu, m.in. krwionośnym, immunologicznym lub neurologicznym. Te wyspecjalizowane jednostki są inwestycją w jego przyszłość, ale i nie tylko – z ich dobrodziejstwa mogą korzystać także inni członkowie rodziny. ## Komórki macierzyste z krwi pępowinowej i sznura – jak przebiega pobieranie? Pobranie krwi pępowinowej i sznura może odbyć się w każdym szpitalu – niezależnie, czy jest to województwo łódzkie, mazowieckie czy też inne zlokalizowane na mapie Polski. **Zabieg ten wykonuje się chwilę po urodzeniu dziecka i odcięciu go od pępowiny.** Następnie położna umieszcza materiał w specjalnych pojemnikach, które są przetransportowywane do laboratorium PBKM w Warszawie, gdzie zostaje on dokładnie przebadany. Jeżeli analiza nie wykaże żadnych przeciwwskazań, przechodzimy do etapu mrożenia.   Przechowywanie krwi pępowinowej i sznura przebiega w optymalnych warunkach, dzięki którym **funkcjonalność komórek macierzystych pozostaje zachowana do nawet kilkudziesięciu lat.** Nad całym tym procesem czuwa sztab ekspertów Polskiego Banku Komórek Macierzystych, którzy z troską dbają o wszystkie szczegóły techniczne. ## Bankowanie komórek macierzystych sznura pępowinowego i krwi – szansa na lepsze życie Leczenie komórkami macierzystymi, które zostały pozyskane z tych obu materiałów, niesie za sobą szereg korzyści. Najważniejszą z nich jest fakt, że **jeśli maluch zachoruje na ciężką chorobę, ma znacznie większą szansę na całkowite wyzdrowienie.** Nie ma wówczas konieczności szukania potencjalnego dawcy, co jest niezwykle istotne ze względu na średni okres oczekiwania, który nierzadko ciągnie się latami. Przy takiej ewentualności czas jest na wagę złota, gdyż jego bieg wpływa na rozwój nieprawidłowości.   To także tyczy się jego krewnych – choć do **przeszczepu komórek z krwi pępowinowej niezbędna jest zgodność, to w przypadku tych ze sznura nie ma takiego wymogu.** W tym drugim materiale bowiem znajdują się mezenchymalne komórki macierzyste, które mają nieco odmienną specyfikę. ## Komórki macierzyste sznura pępowinowego i krwi – podaruj je swojemu dziecku Terapia komórkami macierzystymi kojarzona jest z zabiegami stosowanymi w medycynie estetycznej bądź chirurgii plastycznej. **Przeznaczenie tych drogocennych jednostek jest jednak znacznie szersze** i obecnie możemy ich używać do leczenia wielu schorzeń – od choroby zwyrodnieniowej stawów, poprzez ostre i przewlekłe białaczki, aż do patologii enzymów, komórek krwi oraz układu odpornościowego.   **W komórkach macierzystych siła** – zachęcamy do kontaktu z naszym przedstawicielem w Łodzi, który rozwieje wszelkie wątpliwości ## Lokalizacja – Łódź --- --- title: "Cord blood and stem cell banking Poznan" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/cord-blood-and-stem-cell-banking-poznan" lang: "pl" type: "page" last_modified: "2024-08-07T06:57:44+00:00" translations: pl: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/cord-blood-and-stem-cell-banking-poznan" --- # Cord blood and stem cell banking Poznan # Cord blood banking and stem cells Poznań ## Our consultants - ![kowalska-dorota](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/kowalska-dorota.webp) Author Kowalska Dorota [ dorota.kowalska@pbkm.pl ](mailto:dorota.kowalska@pbkm.pl) [ 728 832 042 ](tel:728 832 042) Dialogue window Back ![kowalska-dorota](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/kowalska-dorota.webp) Author Kowalska Dorota [ dorota.kowalska@pbkm.pl ](mailto:dorota.kowalska@pbkm.pl) [ 728 832 042 ](tel:728 832 042) - ![joanna-lyszczarz](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/joanna-lyszczarz.webp) Medical Consultant Joanna Łyszczarz [ joanna.lyszczarz@pbkm.pl ](mailto:joanna.lyszczarz@pbkm.pl) [ 664 044 058 ](tel:664 044 058) Dialogue window Back ![joanna-lyszczarz](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/joanna-lyszczarz.webp) Medical Consultant Joanna Łyszczarz [ joanna.lyszczarz@pbkm.pl ](mailto:joanna.lyszczarz@pbkm.pl) [ 664 044 058 ](tel:664 044 058) - ![JOLANTA_WALKOWIAK_DSC_8575](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/JOLANTA_WALKOWIAK_DSC_8575.webp) Medical Consultant Jolanta Walkowiak [ jolanta.walkowiak@pbkm.pl ](mailto:jolanta.walkowiak@pbkm.pl) [ 500 156 088 ](tel:500 156 088) Dialogue window Back ![JOLANTA_WALKOWIAK_DSC_8575](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/JOLANTA_WALKOWIAK_DSC_8575.webp) Medical Consultant Jolanta Walkowiak [ jolanta.walkowiak@pbkm.pl ](mailto:jolanta.walkowiak@pbkm.pl) [ 500 156 088 ](tel:500 156 088) ## Cord blood and stem cell banking – Poznań Stem cells are obtained from a variety of sources, the most valuable of which are umbilical and placental blood and umbilical cord. This is due to their specificity – **as they have the ability to reproduce very easily and differentiate into specialized cells**, including. nerve, blood units or the musculoskeletal system, among others. Stem cell therapy, which is taken at birth, can weigh on the health and even life of both the child and other family members. The search for a suitable bone marrow donor in case of illness usually takes a lot of time, which in such situations is at a premium.  **Stem cell banking from cord blood and cord is an investment in the future**. Thanks to them, thousands of patients can already enjoy the delights of life in efficiency. PBKM is the largest center that deals with storage of the aforementioned biological material – hundreds of Parents have already trusted us. ![bankowanie-komorek-poznan](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/bankowanie-komorek-poznan.webp) ## Stem cell treatment – more than 80 severe diseases! Stem cells from cord blood are a true gift of nature that has found its calling in medicine. With their help, we can already effectively cure 80 diseases of various origins – from blood-related anomalies to all sorts of cancers to enzyme malfunctions. Equally beneficial are umbilical cord stem cells, nevertheless they are slightly different from the former. They have a much greater potential to multiply and type. Their scope of application is also slightly different – they are mainly used in regenerative therapy. They are able to reconstruct pathologically altered tissues, such as. Bone, cartilage and nerve tissues, among others. Interestingly, this is just the beginning! Projections of this field herald that with the use of stem cells it will be possible to produce an entire and, most importantly, specialized organ. ## Umbilical cord and blood stem cell banking – a layette for growing up Securing their child for all circumstances is a priority for most Parents. For this reason, they try to create the best possible financial cushion for their little one to start with. What about health, however? The condition of the body determines how we function, especially since some ailments are associated with side effects that can impede daily existence even a dozen years after winning the battle. Transplantation of cord blood or cord stem cells **can not only support the potential hospitalization of a child, but also support the repair of the body** – there is a reason why this biological material is used in tissue regeneration. The use of these two sources makes it possible to obtain a large number of stem cells with 100% compatibility with the child’s system. An interesting case is the umbilical cord, which contains mesenchymal cells. **These individuals show affinity not only to the consolation arrangement, but also to Parents, siblings and grandparents.** ## A sense of security, or stem cells – Poznań Storing cord blood may or may not protect a toddler from all the evils of this world, but it will nevertheless provide a guarantee that it can cure some of the most severe and rare pathologies. Repairing damaged tissue once bordered on the miraculous and required invasive methods, **but today a stem cell transplant is enough to get rid of the damage**. The PBKM facility is located in Warsaw, but this is no limitation! Every province in Poland, including Wielkopolska province, has on its map **hospitals offering cord blood collection and cord cord security**. We encourage you to contact our consultant in Poznan – he will be happy to dispel any doubts and tell you how the whole procedure goes. ## Location – Poznań --- --- title: "Cord blood and stem cell banking Warsaw" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/cord-blood-and-stem-cell-banking-warsaw" lang: "pl" type: "page" last_modified: "2024-06-25T13:48:57+00:00" translations: pl: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/cord-blood-and-stem-cell-banking-warsaw" --- # Cord blood and stem cell banking Warsaw # Bankowanie krwi pępowinowej i komórek macierzystych Warszawa ## Nasi konsultanci - ![renata-gajewska](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/renata-gajewska.webp) Konsultant Medyczny Renata Gajewska [ renata.gajewska@pbkm.pl ](mailto:renata.gajewska@pbkm.pl) [ 512 879 147 ](tel:512 879 147) Dialogue window Back ![renata-gajewska](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/renata-gajewska.webp) Konsultant Medyczny Renata Gajewska [ renata.gajewska@pbkm.pl ](mailto:renata.gajewska@pbkm.pl) [ 512 879 147 ](tel:512 879 147) - Konsultant Medyczny Magdalena Grzelak [ magdalena.grzelak@pbkm.pl ](mailto:magdalena.grzelak@pbkm.pl) [ 664 065 937 ](tel:664 065 937) Dialogue window Back Konsultant Medyczny Magdalena Grzelak [ magdalena.grzelak@pbkm.pl ](mailto:magdalena.grzelak@pbkm.pl) [ 664 065 937 ](tel:664 065 937) - ![adrianna-kawicka](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/adrianna-kawicka.webp) Konsultant Medyczny Adrianna Kawicka [ adrianna.kawicka@pbkm.pl ](mailto:adrianna.kawicka@pbkm.pl) [ 664 065 912 ](tel:664 065 912) Dialogue window Back ![adrianna-kawicka](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/adrianna-kawicka.webp) Konsultant Medyczny Adrianna Kawicka [ adrianna.kawicka@pbkm.pl ](mailto:adrianna.kawicka@pbkm.pl) [ 664 065 912 ](tel:664 065 912) - ![malwina-bugajska](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/malwina-bugajska.webp) Konsultant Medyczny Malwina Bugajska [ malwina.bugajska@pbkm.pl ](mailto:malwina.bugajska@pbkm.pl) [ 602 128 928 ](tel:602 128 928) Dialogue window Back ![malwina-bugajska](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/malwina-bugajska.webp) Konsultant Medyczny Malwina Bugajska [ malwina.bugajska@pbkm.pl ](mailto:malwina.bugajska@pbkm.pl) [ 602 128 928 ](tel:602 128 928) - ![karolina-gasinska](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/karolina-gasinska.webp) Konsultant Medyczny Karolina Gasińska [ karolina.gasinska@pbkm.pl ](mailto:karolina.gasinska@pbkm.pl) [ 602 128 828 ](tel:602 128 828) Dialogue window Back ![karolina-gasinska](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/karolina-gasinska.webp) Konsultant Medyczny Karolina Gasińska [ karolina.gasinska@pbkm.pl ](mailto:karolina.gasinska@pbkm.pl) [ 602 128 828 ](tel:602 128 828) - Konsultant Medyczny Justyna Kolenkiewicz [ justyna.kolenkiewicz@pbkm.pl ](mailto:justyna.kolenkiewicz@pbkm.pl) [ 664 065 949 ](tel:664 065 949) Dialogue window Back Konsultant Medyczny Justyna Kolenkiewicz [ justyna.kolenkiewicz@pbkm.pl ](mailto:justyna.kolenkiewicz@pbkm.pl) [ 664 065 949 ](tel:664 065 949) ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/info-white-icon.svg) Leczenie komórkami macierzystymi to innowacyjna metoda, która **pozwala na hospitalizacje ponad 80 chorób o podłożu krwionośnym, immunologicznym oraz neurologicznym**. Co więcej, korzyści terapeutyczne tych komórek są nieustannie badane przez specjalistów, dzięki czemu w przyszłości lista przypadłości kwalifikujących się do leczenia zostanie prawdopodobnie znacznie powiększona. Skąd pobierane są te komórki? Między innymi z tkanek powstałych w trakcie ciąży. Są to najdrogocenniejsze źródła komórek macierzystych, które to wykazują szczególnie duży potencjał do rozmnażania się i różnicowania w wyspecjalizowane zespoły tkanek. **W PBKM zapewniamy bankowanie komórek macierzystych sznura pępowinowego oraz krwi pępowinowej**. Zachęcamy do kontaktu lub odwiedzenia nas w naszej siedzibie, która zlokalizowana jest w biurze Atrium Plaza w dzielnicy wola. ## Przechowywanie krwi pępowinowej i sznura – jaki jest tego cel? Pobranie krwi pępowinowej niesie za sobą szereg korzyści dla malucha, jak i jego rodzeństwa. **W tym płynu ustrojowym znajduje się bowiem złoże komórek macierzystych, które stanowią zabezpieczenie w razie zachorowania.** Wynika to z ich specyfiki – ten materiał biologiczny ma zdolność do naprawiania i zastępowania uszkodzonych komórek. Dzięki tej właściwości **stosuje się go do terapii patologii onkologicznych oraz hematologicznych**. Komórki macierzyste sznura pępowinowego także używane są w leczeniu chorób, aczkolwiek o nieco innym podłożu. Te jednostki, zwane inaczej komórkami mezenchymalnymi, wpływają na procesy regeneracyjne, dlatego też nierzadko **są istotnym elementem hospitalizacji w przypadku nieprawidłowości ze strony układu kostno-mięśniowego oraz nerwowego**.   Bankowanie komórek macierzystych z krwi pępowinowej oraz wspomnianego szura, jest inwestycją w zdrowie przyszłego członka rodziny. **Jeżeli maluch zachoruje, wówczas szansa na wykonanie przeszczepu znacznie wzrasta**, ponieważ nie ma konieczności szukania dawcy – to z kolei skraca także czas procedury. ![iStock_000020623748XSmall](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/iStock_000020623748XSmall.webp) ## Przygotowane komórki macierzyste – Warszawa Terapia z wykorzystaniem komórek macierzystych polega na ich transplantacji do organizmu pacjenta. Aby jednak zabieg ten mógł się odbyć, materiał biologiczny musi zostać wcześniej odpowiednio przygotowany. W PBKM oprócz bankowaniem zajmujemy się również poprawnym spreparowaniem komórek, dzięki czemu mogą zostać wysłane do placówki, w której zaplanujesz przeprowadzić przeszczep – zachowujemy standardy zarówno polskich ośrodków, jak i tych zagranicznych. Komórki macierzyste z krwi pępowinowej oraz sznura przechowywane są w specjalistycznych laboratoriach, w których panują optymalne dla nich warunki. Z tego też względu mogą one być magazynowane aż do momentu, kiedy zajdzie konieczność użycia ich. ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/info-white-icon.svg) Warto wiedzieć, że komórki te **mogą zostać przeszczepione nie tylko dziecku, które jest ich posiadaczem, ale i jego rodzeństwu oraz innym członkom rodziny**. W przypadku krwi pępowinowej wymagana jest jednak zgodność układu HLA, natomiast sznur pępowinowy nie potrzebuje tej pokrewności. ## Terapia komórkami macierzystymi, czyli szansa na życie – PBKM w Warszawie Prawdopodobieństwo leczenia komórkami macierzystymi wynosi 1:100, co jest stosunkowo dużą proporcją, uwzględniając czas praktykowania tej metody w Polsce. Siedziba Polskiego Banku Komórek Macierzystych znajduje się w województwie mazowieckim w dzielnicy warszawskiej wola (aleja Jana Pawła II, budynek Atrium Plaza). **Zabezpiecz swoją rodzinę już dziś, gwarantując jej zdrowie i bezpieczeństwo**.

Mają także niższe wymagania zgodności tkankowej niż komórki ze szpiku kostnego, co zwiększa szansę na powodzenie przyjęcia po przeszczepie. Pobranie krwi pępowinowej jest całkowicie bezpieczne dla matki i dziecka, a przechowywane komórki są gotowe do użycia w każdej chwili, co jest nieocenione w nagłych przypadkach medycznych. To, co wyróżnia komórki macierzyste z krwi pępowinowej, to ich pochodzenie. Są to komórki uzyskane bezpośrednio z momentu narodzin, co sprawia, że są „świeże” i niezmienione przez czynniki zewnętrzne. Dodatkowo, **jeśli komórki są używane dla samego dawcy, ryzyko odrzutu jest w pełni wyeliminowane.** Dlatego warto rozważyć przechowywanie krwi pępowinowej z komórkami macierzystymi pozyskiwanymi z tkanki tłuszczowej jako inwestycję w przyszłe zdrowie swojego dziecka oraz potencjalną ochronę dla innych członków rodziny. ## Lokalizacja – Kielce --- --- title: "Cord blood and stem cell banking Opole" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/cord-blood-and-stem-cell-banking-opole" lang: "pl" type: "page" last_modified: "2024-06-25T13:26:44+00:00" translations: pl: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/cord-blood-and-stem-cell-banking-opole" --- # Cord blood and stem cell banking Opole # Bankowanie krwi pępowinowej i komórek macierzystych Opole ## Bankowanie krwi pępowinowej i komórek macierzystych Opole Zastosowanie komórek macierzystych w nowoczesnej medycynie jest nieocenione – mogą wpływać na poprawę kondycji skóry, z ich użyciem przeprowadza się leczenie łysienia i przede wszystkim służą one do terapii wielu ciężkich schorzeń. W tym ostatnim przypadku **wykorzystuje się przeważnie komórki macierzyste sznura pępowinowego i krwi pępowinowej**. Oba te materiały pozyskiwane są podczas porodu, a ich zgodność z układem dziecka wynosi 100%. W PBKM **zajmujemy się przechowywaniem tych drogocennych materiałów biologicznych i preparowaniem z nich wspomnianych komórek**. Zapraszamy do umówienia spotkania z naszym przedstawicielem, który działa w obrębie województwa opolskiego. ## Nasi konsultanci - ![marlena-tarnowska](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/marlena-tarnowska.webp) Ekspert ds.

Komórki macierzyste mogą być pozyskiwane z krwi pacjenta, jego tkanki tłuszczowej oraz szpiku kostnego. Jednakże nie wykazują one takich właściwości regeneracyjnych jak te pobrane z omawianych materiałów biologicznych. Te pierwsze dwa rodzaje wykorzystywane są w medycynie estetycznej i kosmetologii. Uzyskuje się z nich osocze bogatopłytkowe i czynniki wzrostu, które mają na celu poprawienie defektów skórnych czy tych związanych ze wzrostem włosów. Komórki ze szpiku kostnego natomiast **są w stanie zastępować uszkodzone komórki i leczyć choroby, ale nie w takim stopniu jak jednostki krwi pępowinowej czy sznura**. Oprócz tego terapia z ich zastosowaniem wymaga znalezienia zgodnego dawcy, co nie zawsze jest proste. ## Bankowanie komórek macierzystych z krwi pępowinowej – wyprawka dla malucha Życie pisze rozmaite scenariusze, w których nie brakuje szczęśliwych chwil. Niestety zdarzają się też przykre zwroty akcji, do których zaliczamy m.in. choroby o różnym podłożu. Choć niektóre z nich bywają praktycznie nieszkodliwe i niezagrażające życiu, **to inne natomiast mogą stanowić poważne niebezpieczeństwo dla zdrowia, a nawet i życia dziecka**. Jedynymi z takich schorzeń są te wymagające przeszczepów. Mowa tutaj o m.in. białaczkach, niedokrwistościach, zespołach mieloproliferacyjnych, zaburzenia lub braki enzymów czy defektach komórek macierzystych. Komórki macierzyste z krwi pępowinowej **pozwalają zaoszczędzić te cenne chwile, ponieważ są kompatybilne z organizmem malucha**. Stosuje się je w terapii wyżej wspomnianych chorób, ale i nie tylko. Na liście jest ich ponad 80, z czego większość ma zazwyczaj bardzo ciężki przebieg i niepomyślne rokowania. Przechowywanie krwi pępowinowej jest zatem inwestycją w życie pociechy, dzięki której zarówno ona, jak i Ty będziecie mogli cieszyć się urokami życia bez zbędnych obaw. ![Fotolia_206174035](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Fotolia-206174035.webp) ## Bankowanie komórek macierzystych sznura pępowinowego – zabezpieczenie dla całej rodziny Sznur pępowinowy jest równie bogatym źródłem komórek macierzystych, aczkolwiek nieco innego typu. Są to bowiem komórki mezenchymalne, które mają większą zdolność do przekształcania się w inne typy komórek np. nerwowe, chrzęstne czy kostne. Z tego powodu używa się ich zazwyczaj w terapii różnorodnych uszkodzeń i deformacji stawów, ubytków kostnych oraz schorzeń o podłożu neurologicznym, które wynikają z degradacji neuronów. Ponadto leczenie komórkami macierzystymi ze sznura pępowinowego może obejmować nie tylko malucha, ale i również jego najbliższych. Wynika to z faktu, iż jednostki te wykazują zgodność z organizmem innych członków rodziny dziecka, którzy są z nim spokrewnieni. ## Komórki macierzyste (Opole) – materiał biologiczny na wagę złota W PBKM zajmujemy się bankowaniem komórek macierzystych krwi pępowinowej i sznura pępowinowego, a naszym celem jest troska o pacjentów. Wiemy, że pewne schorzenia mogą przyjść znienacka i obrócić całe życie o 180 stopni. Dziecko posiadające zabezpieczone komórki macierzyste **ma znacznie większą szansę na sprawne wyzdrowienie i to w dodatku z niskim ryzykiem nawrotów**.

Their beneficial effects are used in aesthetic medicine to address signs of aging. They are taken from purified adipose tissue and then administered under the subcutaneous tissue. However, these units have a much broader purpose, through which they can save not only the health, but also the life of the patient. **They are used to treat as many as 80 diseases of various causes.** The reason for this is their peculiarity – stem cells can differentiate into cells of the tissue to which they are transplanted without limitation.   Therapy with stem cells obtained at birth **shows very high effectiveness, as evidenced by the number of cured patients** who have managed to win against severe pathologies of the circulatory, nervous or immune systems. The functionality of these units is significantly different from those found in bone marrow, peripheral blood or adipose tissue. This is why they are so effective and over the years have become an integral part of the treatment of many ailments. ## Stem cell banking from cord blood and cord (Silesia) – why is it worth it? Storage of cord blood and cord carries a number of benefits. This issue is one of the more difficult decisions for Parents, which is why it is worth getting to know them beforehand. The first is that the administration of stem cells gives access to a new, innovative therapy that can improve health and save lives. In addition, **the units are always compatible with the toddler’s body, saving valuable time that would have been spent searching for a donor.** What’s more, umbilical cord stem cells are almost always compatible with the system of other relatives – Parents, siblings or even grandparents.   Stem cell therapy **opens up a number of possibilities, making the patient’s prognosis better.** This is because it is possible to transplant them in situations where other methods have failed. We are talking here especially about cancerous diseases, such as, among others. breast cancer and kidney cancer, among others. ## Cord blood and stem cell banking – Katowice The banking of umbilical cord stem cells and cord blood can make a difference in a child’s future. This is because of their content – **for they are a precious source of stem cells,** which, compared to those from bone marrow, have a much greater ability to differentiate into other cell types. Most importantly, these specialized units are always compatible with the toddler’s system, and their shelf life is practically lifelong.   At PBKM, **we store both of these materials so that we can isolate the stem cells from them if necessary.** Although cord blood and cord were once considered waste, today they are a safeguard for the future of the baby and other family members. ![plan](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/plan.webp) ## Umbilical cord blood and cord collection – a layette for the future Stem cell treatment is a chance for a fruitful life, which will be filled with a mass of happy memories. However, it is worth remembering that the collection of materials takes place after birth, so the opportunity to perform the procedure happens occasionally, if not once. And have you already secured your family? Feel free to contact our representative in Katowice, Silesia, who will try to dispel all doubts. ## Location – Katowice --- --- title: "Cord blood and stem cell banking Gdansk" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/cord-blood-and-stem-cell-banking-gdansk" lang: "pl" type: "page" last_modified: "2024-06-25T13:06:34+00:00" translations: pl: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/cord-blood-and-stem-cell-banking-gdansk" --- # Cord blood and stem cell banking Gdansk # Bankowanie krwi pępowinowej i komórek macierzystych Gdańsk ## Nasi konsultanci - ![sumila-karolina](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/sumila-karolina.webp) Starszy Konsultant Medyczny Sumiła Karolina [ karolina.sumila@pbkm.pl ](mailto:karolina.sumila@pbkm.pl) [ 606 975 957 ](tel:606 975 957) Dialogue window Back ![sumila-karolina](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/sumila-karolina.webp) Starszy Konsultant Medyczny Sumiła Karolina [ karolina.sumila@pbkm.pl ](mailto:karolina.sumila@pbkm.pl) [ 606 975 957 ](tel:606 975 957) - ![dorota-nowocin](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/dorota-nowocin.webp) Konsultant Medyczny Dorota Nowocin [ dorota.nowocin@pbkm.pl ](mailto:dorota.nowocin@pbkm.pl) [ 728 842 833 ](tel:728 842 833) Dialogue window Back ![dorota-nowocin](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/dorota-nowocin.webp) Konsultant Medyczny Dorota Nowocin [ dorota.nowocin@pbkm.pl ](mailto:dorota.nowocin@pbkm.pl) [ 728 842 833 ](tel:728 842 833) Zastosowanie komórek macierzystych jest bardzo szerokie, a ponadto można je pozyskiwać z różnych źródeł, w tym tkanki tłuszczowej, szpiku kostnego oraz krwi pępowinowej, sznura pępowinowego i łożyska. **Te trzy ostatnie materiały biologiczne przechowujemy w Polskim Banku Komórek Macierzystych**. Ich specyfika jest o bardziej prosperująca niż tych pozostałych. Mają one bowiem większą zdolność do rozmnażania się oraz różnicowania, dzięki czemu mogą naprawiać więcej uszkodzonych komórek oraz zastępować je. Z tego powodu **wykorzystywane są one do leczenia wszelakich chorób o naturze onkologicznej, hematologicznej, a także neurologicznej.** ![Slider1_BW21](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Slider1_BW21.webp) ## Czym są komórki macierzyste? – Gdańsk Komórki macierzyste są grupą pierwotnych jednostek, które wykazują nieograniczoną zdolność do podziałów, namnażania się oraz przekształcania w wyspecjalizowane komórki organizmu, takie jak m.in.: - komórki układu mięśniowo-szkieletowego, - komórki układu nerwowego, - komórki tłuszczowe, - komórki krwi. ## Bankowanie komórek macierzystych z krwi pępowinowej – dlaczego warto? Choroby często pojawiają się niespodziewanie i niestety nie możemy uchronić przed nimi ani siebie, ani swoich pociech. Niemniej istnieje na to rozwiązanie, a mianowicie pobranie krwi pępowinowej, a następnie przechowywanie jej w banku. Dlaczego warto się nad tym zastanowić? Ponieważ **znajdujące się w niej komórki macierzyste wykorzystywane są do leczenia aż 80 ciężkich chorób**, w tym nowotworów, poważnych zaburzeń odporności czy patologii układu krwionośnego. Skuteczność tej metody ocenia się bardzo wysoko – przeszczep tych komórek wykonano już u wielu pacjentów, którym uratowały one życie. Te właściwości zostały szybko zauważone w świecie medycyny, a lata prób, badań oraz praktyki sprawiły, że **leczenie komórkami macierzystymi to już nie odległa przyszłość, a prawdziwa teraźniejszość**. Najbardziej bogatym źródłem tych komórek jest materiał biologiczny powstały w czasie ciąży – mowa tutaj o krwi pępowinowej i łożyskowej oraz sznurze pępowinowym. ## Bankowanie komórek macierzystych sznura pępowinowego – mnogość korzyści leczniczych Terapia komórkami macierzystymi niesie za sobą wiele dobrodziejstwa. Czym jednak różnią się komórki pozyskiwane z krwi pępowinowej a sznura pępowinowego? Te drugie to komórki mezenchymalne. Wyróżniają się one **większą zdolnością do typowania w inne rodzaje komórek, takie jak np. nerwowe, kostne oraz chrzęstne**. Ta cecha pozwala na użytkowanie ich w m.in. leczeniu zmian zwyrodnieniowych stawów, aczkolwiek nie jest to jedyne zastosowanie tych specyficznych jednostek. Obecnie wykorzystuje się je także w eksperymentalnej terapii dziecięcego porażenia mózgowego czy stwardnienia zanikowego bocznego. Jest to przełom w świecie medycyny, ponieważ wcześniej uważano, że przypadłości te są całkowicie nieuleczalne. **Co ciekawe, komórki macierzyste sznura pępowinowego mogą być przeszczepione nie tylko dziecku, ale i również pozostałym członkom rodziny** – od rodzeństwa, aż po dziadków. ![iStock-520702316_Copy](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/iStock-520702316_Copy.webp) ## Komórki macierzyste krwi pępowinowej – jak wygląda pobieranie materiału? Niezależnie czy to województwo pomorskie, czy inne zlokalizowane na mapie Polski, krew pępowinową można pobrać praktycznie w każdym szpitalu. Materiał ten pozyskiwany jest po urodzeniu dziecka i odcięciu go od pępowiny – to samo tyczy się sznura. Tkanki następnie umieszczane są w specjalnych pojemnikach i przewożone do laboratorium, gdzie poddane zostają badaniom, aby móc je zamrozić. Przechowywanie krwi pępowinowej ma miejsce w Warszawie, gdzie znajduje się siedziba PBKM. Komórki macierzyste z krwi pępowinowej to coś znacznie więcej niż zabezpieczenie swojego dziecka oraz bliskich. **To perspektywa na lepsze i spokojniejsze życie, bez zmartwień o zdrowie oraz czekania na rozwój medycyny.** Skontaktuj się z naszym przedstawicielem w Gdańsku – umówi on wszystkie kwestie i rozwieje wszelkie wątpliwości. ## Lokalizacja – Gdańsk --- --- title: "Cord blood and stem cell banking Kraków" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/cord-blood-and-stem-cell-banking-krakow" lang: "pl" type: "page" last_modified: "2024-08-07T06:49:13+00:00" translations: pl: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/cord-blood-and-stem-cell-banking-krakow" --- # Cord blood and stem cell banking Kraków # Cord blood banking and stem cells Krakow Life writes different scenarios, in which there is no shortage of unexpected and unpleasant twists – but it is the ending that counts. We are talking here especially about diseases that attack us by surprise. Although most of them can be treated with pharmacotherapy and other methods, sometimes the prognosis is not promising. Fortunately, **medical developments have given patients many options to enjoy a long and peaceful earthly journey.** One such option is stem cells from umbilical cord and placental blood, as well as mesenchymal cells extracted from the umbilical cord. All of the aforementioned units have already saved the lives of many toddlers, as well as their relatives.   At the Polish Bank of Stem Cells **, we store biological material** that can be used for therapeutic purposes at any time. Take care of your family’s health today, guaranteeing a fruitful future. ![Fotolia_206174035](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Fotolia-206174035.webp) ## Stem cell banking from cord blood and umbilical cord – why is it worth it? Stem cells from the umbilical cord and umbilical cord blood are a precious biological material that is used in the treatment of various oncological, hematological, as well as neurological and rheumatological diseases. The reason is the specificity of these cells. Originally they are unspecialized, but after transplantation they show the ability to reproduce and differentiate very efficiently. Thanks to these properties, they are able to rebuild and replace already damaged cells. ## Our consultants - ![monika-malek](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/monika-malek.webp) Medical Consultant Monika Małek [ monika.malek@pbkm.pl ](mailto:monika.malek@pbkm.pl) [ 664 045 796 ](tel:664 045 796) Dialogue window Back ![monika-malek](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/monika-malek.webp) Medical Consultant Monika Małek [ monika.malek@pbkm.pl ](mailto:monika.malek@pbkm.pl) [ 664 045 796 ](tel:664 045 796) ## What is the difference between cells extracted from cord blood and umbilical cord? The former **is mainly used to treat blood-related ailments and cancer, while the latter is used in regenerative medicine.** This is because umbilical cord is rich in mesenchymal stem cells, which type themselves into bone, cartilage and adipose tissue. The banking of both makes it possible to use them when necessary. If your child, his siblings or another family member becomes ill, then you will have a priceless safety net that can save the health, and even the life, of a loved one. ## Stem cell banking of umbilical cord and blood – Lesser Poland province PBKM is the largest of its kind in all of Poland, as well as Europe. We have our headquarters in Warsaw, however, we have representatives in some provinces, one of which is Małopolska. We are committed to periodically expanding our activities so that as many parents as possible are aware that **there is such a solution as treatment with stem cells obtained from organs created during pregnancy**. Above all, we want every mom, dad, their little one and their siblings to have the opportunity to take advantage of such an option, which offers the prospect of a better, promising future. The packages we offer **include all the necessary equipment for the collection of cord and placental blood and umbilical cord** (biological material varies depending on the assigned option). The kits also allow for safe transportation. ## Donate stem cells to your child – Krakow Umbilical cord and blood stem cells are one of the best gifts you can give your little one. This is because they are a safeguard for him or her. Storing umbilical cord blood **will** probably **pay off in the future, especially as scientists are finding this increasingly surprising property of stem cells.** According to them, in a dozen years or so they will be used to create new organs.

Having access to our own stem cells from cord blood can prove crucial in saving health and lives. Modern medicine offers us incredible opportunities, and stem cells are one of its most advanced tools. Health is the most precious thing, so taking care of it already at the child’s birth is an expression of responsibility and concern for the child’s future.

Transplantation in Children within the EBMT (European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation). Cord blood collection is worth considering. Parents here should use objective, verified information on the collection, storage and possible use of this blood. For the time being, cord blood has applications in hematopoietic cell transplantation, especially in metabolic diseases, immunodeficiencies, hematopoietic defects, but also in hematopoietic malignancies. Recent reports from the UK suggest that it is the best transplant material for patients with refractory forms of acute myeloid leukemia. What the future will show, we don’t know, but as medicine develops, we can expect new possibilities. - ![088fa0e82123a37ae569bb9963da2e0c](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/088fa0e82123a37ae569bb9963da2e0c.webp) ### doctor.

In this way, we provide our little one with the necessary treatment in case of the occurrence of an illness, we also minimize the waiting time for transplantation, which without our own stem cells may even prove impossible due to the lack of a donor. Cord blood banking also provides us with access to modern therapies when the common ones fail. It is a chance for us to improve the life of our child, but also of other members of our family. - ![88f8865257c731b6cd0afa6609779be4](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/88f8865257c731b6cd0afa6609779be4.webp) ### Klaudia Siniewicz Internal medicine physician Cord blood banking is safeguarding the health and life of my child. It is possible to give it to the child’s siblings and family if necessary. The blood obtained at birth is a carrier of valuable stem cells, which, due to their regenerative function, are widely used in the treatment of diseases, and with the development of medicine, the list is gradually growing. Moreover, despite the very rapid development of modern diagnostic methods, the potential of stem cells is not fully understood. - ![agata-witkowicz](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/agata-witkowicz.webp) Agata Witkowicz Midwife - ![marcin-drygalski](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/marcin-drygalski.webp) Dr. n. med.

I can’t imagine doing otherwise because I want to ensure the best for my child. Medicine is developing very fast and we don’t know what else it will unveil to us. The most important thing is that the procedure itself for collecting stem cells from cord blood is safe – both for the baby and for the mother. - ![dr-n-med-magdalena-grotowska-duch](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/dr-n-med-magdalena-grotowska-duch.webp) ### Dr. n. med. Magdalena Grotowska- Spirit Dentist I am a doctor, so the subject of stem cells and the possibility of their use is not alien to me. The decision to deposit my child’s cord blood was obvious to me and I can not imagine that as an informed mother and doctor I could have acted differently. The development of medicine, and thus the field of stem cells is expansive and already offers great opportunities, while the discovery of all applications is still ahead of us. PBKM’s creation of the opportunity to deposit blood “Pro publico bono” and cooperation with banks abroad makes it a leading and trustworthy bank on the Polish market. All these factors, as well as the professional and reliable work of the consultant, led me to use the services of PBKM. --- --- title: "Feedback from our customers" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/they-trusted-us/feedback-from-our-customers" lang: "pl" type: "page" last_modified: "2024-08-01T05:39:20+00:00" translations: pl: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/they-trusted-us/feedback-from-our-customers" --- # Feedback from our customers # Opinions on cord blood banking Many Parents choose to bank cord blood to ensure the best possible protection for their child.

What is cord blood banking? An investment. A safeguard. Proof of infinite love. During pregnancy, I gradually realize that the greatest miracle is born in me – the miracle of life. Along with it I change, I feel more, stronger, I begin to understand that my greatest happiness in life will soon greet the world with its first cry. As special and unique as the chance to secure his future. Cord blood banking is an investment in what is most important in life – my baby’s health. And the best way to tell him for the first time: I love you. - ![klaudia-s](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/klaudia-s-e1731675559469.webp) ### Claudia S. The cord blood banking kit is an essential part of the layette for me. I consider cord blood banking to be the best investment in my baby’s future. Securing the blood and cord cord first and foremost gives me the opportunity to save the health and life of my little one. Although I hope I will never have to use the biological material obtained, I consider it the best gift – providing peace of mind and security. - ![wojciech-m](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/wojciech-m.webp) Wojciech M. Man is a precautionary creature. We gladly insure our house or car, as they say in case of emergency. Then we do not waste money, because in return we get “peace of mind.” That’s why I think that with the potential danger that may befall our little ones, cord blood banking is worth any money. There is nothing more precious than health, and cord blood banking gives us a lot. First of all, it gives us a chance in case of illness, but it also gives us the feeling that we have done everything to secure the health of our offspring. Such certainty cannot be overestimated so it is worth banking cord blood. Read more Zwiń - ![izabela-p](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/izabela-p.webp) Isabella P.

It’s a chance for my child to live the most beautiful life he or she can in safety, in health, but it’s also a chance for me as a Parent that in the worst moment of my child’s illness, which no Parent would want to experience, I have the option to get help. It is a great relief for a Parent to feel that there is always a “way out” that gives hope for a healthy life for our treasure.

Cord blood banking is a safeguard for me in case of unexpected illness. I don’t know what could happen to us, and giving birth and storing cord blood is a unique moment to make the right decision about the safety of our little one. Pregnancy, motherhood changes looking at our health and aspects that we did not consider before. Today, being a conscious future Parent, I can’t imagine not taking such an important step as securing the cells. A safe start to a new life is an attitude! - ![natalia-p](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/natalia-p-e1731675956705.webp) ### Natalia P. Cord blood banking is peace of mind for me. At childbirth, such a small thing as collecting the material and later freezing it, can protect our child ourselves and our family and give us a sense of security. It is our bargaining chip in case of unforeseen illnesses, which may or may not occur, but I think it is worth it to take care of YOUR future and for this one and only moment collect cord blood during childbirth. --- --- title: "Foundations" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/foundations" lang: "pl" type: "page" last_modified: "2024-06-12T13:23:35+00:00" translations: pl: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/foundations" --- # Foundations # Fundacje ## Fundacje Polski Bank Komórek Macierzystych współpracuje i wspiera fundacje, których działalność dotyczy zagadnień medycznych lub związanych z ciążą. ![Logo Fundacja Rodzić po ludzku](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/fundacja-rodzic-po-ludzku.jpg) Fundacja Rodzić po ludzku Read more ![Logo Fundacja Miśka Zdziśka](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/fundacja-miska-zdziska.jpg) Fundacja Miśka Zdziśka Read more ![Logo Fundacja Szczęśliwe macierzyństwo](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/fundacja-szczesliwe-macierzynstwo.jpg) Fundacja Szczęśliwe macierzyństwo Read more ![Logo EuroCord Stowarzyszenie na rzecz deponowania i wykorzystywania komórek macierzystych](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/eurocord.jpg) EuroCord Stowarzyszenie na rzecz deponowania i wykorzystywania komórek macierzystych Read more ![Logo PBKM partnerem Kliniki ](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/klinika-budzik.jpg) PBKM partnerem Kliniki “Budzik” i Fundacji “Akogo?” Ewy Błaszczyk Read more Back ![Logo Fundacja Rodzić po ludzku](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/fundacja-rodzic-po-ludzku.jpg) Fundacja Rodzić po ludzku Organizacja pozarządowa pożytku publicznego działającą na rzecz kobiet w ciąży i matek małych dzieci.

Wykorzystywanie krwi pępowinowej w Polsce jest na razie małe, bo nie ma zmagazynowanej krwi w specjalnych bankach. Bazując na doświadczeniu krajów, w których medycyna jest na najwyższym poziomie (Stany Zjednoczone, Japonia), wiemy, że krew pępowinowa może stać się głównym źródłem komórek macierzystych do transplantacji dla systemu ochrony zdrowia. Wpłynięto równocześnie na zwiększenie liczby wykorzystywanych w Polsce transplantacji komórek macierzystych, których, obecnie wykorzystuje się dwukrotnie mnie już w zachodniej Europie. Uważamy, że jedną z głównych dróg prowadzących do zmiany obecnego stanu rzeczy jest dostarczenie rzetelnej informacji dla Rodziców spodziewających się dziecka, którzy powinni mieć możliwość podjęcia decyzji odnośnie pobrania i zdeponowania komórek macierzystych z krwi pępowinowej dziecka.

Pierwszym partnerem, z którym FamiCord podejmuje współpracę jest Uniwersytecki Szpital Dziecięcy w Lublinie. ![cord-blood](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/cord-blood.webp) #### Program Podań Krwi Pępowinowej Dla Rozwoju Mózgu [ Pobierz materiały informacyjne ](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/eksperyment-segregator-11-04-2022_prev.pdf) ### Grupa FamiCord Grupa FamiCord jest największym w Europie i piątym największym bankiem komórek macierzystych na świecie. Obecnie współpracuje z ponad 1300 szpitalami w Europie. Powołany do życia międzynarodowy program leczniczy [Program Podań Krwi Pępowinowej dla Rozwoju Mózgu](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/eksperyment-segregator-11-04-2022_prev.pdf) (FamiCord Group Expanded Access Protocol Cord Blood for Brain Development) to kolejny krok w działaniach wspierających prace lekarzy i naukowców zajmujących się wykorzystaniem działania własnych komórek macierzystych w leczeniu chorób neurologicznych oraz szansa dla dzieci dotkniętych dziecięcym porażeniem mózgowym oraz zaburzeniami ze spektrum autyzmu, które dzięki podaniu własnej krwi pępowinowej mają szansę na poprawę kliniczną. ### Uniwersytecki Szpital Dziecięcy w Lublinie Wybór Uniwersyteckiego Szpitala Dziecięcego w Lublinie na pierwszego partnera naszego programu jest nieprzypadkowy – poprzedził go okres wspólnej pracy, badań i pierwszych sukcesów, jakimi były pilotażowe podania u małych pacjentów szpitala. Teraz wspólnie wchodzimy w kolejny etap współpracy a jej efektami będziemy mogli wkrótce podzielić się z opinią publiczną. Co ważne, nasz program jest pierwszym programem w Europie, a drugim tego typu na świecie. Naszym zadaniem, jako banku, jest przede wszystkim zabezpieczanie jej dla naszych klientów i ich bliskich, ale też pomoc pacjentom w jej użyciu jeśli jest taka potrzeba. – mówi Tomasz Baran z należącego do Grupy FamiCord Polskiego Banku Komórek Macierzystych. W założeniu Program ma być bezpłatny dla klientów Grupy FamiCord – dodaje. Za realizację założeń badawczych i klinicznych “programu badań krwi pępowinowej dla rozwoju mózgu” w imieniu Uniwersyteckiego Szpitala Dziecięcego w Lublinie odpowiada dr hab. Magdalena Chrościńska-Krawczyk pionierka zastosowania komórek macierzystych z krwi pępowinowej i galarety Whartona w neurologii dziecięcej. Teraz będzie jeszcze szerzej realizować program autologicznych komórek macierzystych z krwi pępowinowej. **Komórki macierzyste pozyskane przy porodzie stosowane są już od kilku jako źródło w procedurze medycznego eksperymentu leczniczego. Mieliśmy już kilkanaścioro dzieci, u których wykorzystaliśmy autologiczną krew pępowinową. Niedawno pokazały się wyniku podobnych procedur z ośrodka w USA, gdzie leczono blisko 300 dzieci. Liczymy, że teraz będziemy mogli pomóc większej liczbie dzieci, bo dzięki Grupie FamiCord zgłaszają się do nas pacjenci z całej Europy** – mówi o perspektywach programu dr hab. Magdalena Chrościńska-Krawczyk. ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/info-white-icon.svg) #### Do tej pory w lubelskim szpitalu w pilotażowej fazie programu terapii własną krwią pępowinową klientów Grupy FamiCord przystąpiło już 14 małych pacjentów. ### Największe w Europie doświadczenie w przekazywaniu i wykorzystywaniu zdeponowanego materiału do leczenia **FamiCord Group ma obecnie największe w Europie doświadczenie w przekazywaniu i wykorzystywaniu zdeponowanego materiału do leczenia. Mamy najlepsze w Europie warunki pozwalające na opracowanie materiału komórkowego do zastosowania klinicznego. Nasze badania wykazały, że pacjenci z chorobami neurologicznymi poddani terapii z wykorzystaniem komórek macierzystych ze sznura pępowiny uzyskali istotną poprawę samodzielności, niezależności i jakości życia. To bardzo obiecujące wyniki, ale przed nami jeszcze długa droga, by odkryć pełne spektrum możliwości komórek macierzystych z krwi pępowinowej i sznura pępowiny** – tłumaczy dr n. med. Dariusz Boruczkowski z Grupy FamiCord Krew pępowinową można zabezpieczyć tylko raz w życiu – podczas porodu, to wykonują banki z Grupy FamiCord w całej Europie. Pochodzące z niej komórki macierzyste mogą w przyszłości posłużyć w ratowaniu zdrowia i życia nie tylko ich właściciela, ale też jego bliskich. Komórki macierzyste z krwi pępowinowej są bowiem dużo bardziej „uniwersalne” w zastosowaniu. --- --- title: "Documents" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/documents" lang: "pl" type: "page" last_modified: "2026-04-21T10:56:46+00:00" translations: pl: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/documents" --- # Documents # Model documents ## Dear Customers At Polish Bank of Stem Cells, we attach great importance to transparency, because we understand how important the decision you are making is.

Just a few months ago, I was pregnant myself and starting to look for answers to thousands of questions that bothered me. Questions that arose with the realization that from now on I was no longer responsible not only for myself, but also for the little being who had taken up residence inside me. It was for her that I had to become an expert in so many new fields for me, such as dietetics, medicine, psychology, physiotherapy and many others. Unfortunately, I ended up with different quality knowledge and “advisors,” which caused confusion, frustration and fear whether I was sure I was doing everything right. That’s why, together with a group of specialists, I created the Happy Family Perinatal Center. I invite you.

We invite all mothers to our birthing school. The company was established in 1999, as one of the first non-public health care facilities in the Podlaskie province. The experience we gained during this period allowed us to develop a brand that enjoys the recognition and trust of patients. Many of our residents have been with us since the beginning of the Center’s existence and entrust us with the care of their own health, that of their children, and that of their entire family. Despite a large group of trusted patients and an established position in the region, we are not resting on our laurels. We are aware that with increasing life expectancy, social development and advances in medical technology, expectations of us are growing every day. We move with the times, so – while also demanding more and more from ourselves – we guarantee the highest quality of services. We strive to provide access to the best specialists in the region, constantly improve the competence of our staff, equip our facilities with the latest equipment and implement the highest standards and procedures.

Some of them are among the less serious ones with which one can function normally, while others can turn life upside down. **Stem cell therapy may then be helpful.** Although they are used in aesthetic medicine (e.g., scar reduction, alopecia treatment, rejuvenation procedures), their scope of application is currently expanding to include perinatal care and medicine more broadly. **Stem cell banking from umbilical cord blood and cord is a solution that lays the groundwork for growing up.** This biological material is able to save the life of a child and his siblings in the event of contracting 80 serious diseases. This practice is performed by the largest facility of its kind in Europe, namely the Polish Stem Cell Bank. ## Umbilical cord and blood stem cell banking – secure your family for the future Collecting and storing cord blood and cord is an investment that can save a baby’s life. This is because this blood is a precious source of stem cells, which are unspecialized units that **have great potential to multiply and transform into specialized cells.** They demonstrate the ability to replace damaged cells and treat diseases, especially those related to the circulatory and immune systems. What’s more, stem cell therapy can be applied not only to the child from whom the blood was drawn, but also to other family members. ## What diseases can cord blood and umbilical cord stem cells treat?

The biological material obtained is then thoroughly tested in a laboratory and finally frozen. This medical procedure is completely safe and is performed daily in thousands of hospitals. The administration of stem cells from blood can be carried out at any time at the patient’s request. ## Ensure a successful future for your child, provide them with stem cells – Wroclaw Stem cells from the umbilical cord and cord blood have a significant advantage over those obtained from the bone marrow, as **they have a greater ability to multiply, and the compatibility between recipient and donor is more prosperous.** However, the birth of a child takes place once, so the chance to collect the most related biological material possible is also a one-time thing. Therefore, you should think about the future of your child today. We encourage you to contact representatives of the Polish Bank of Stem Cells in Wroclaw, who will try to explain each stage of the procedure. ## Location – Wroclaw --- --- title: "For existing customers" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/for-existing-customers" lang: "pl" type: "page" last_modified: "2025-10-24T05:59:33+00:00" translations: pl: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/for-existing-customers" --- # For existing customers # Contact for existing customers ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Headset-white.svg) ## Customer service We are available on business days from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm.

Currently, up to 1 in 30 children is born with a genetic disease. It is estimated that approx. 40% of children’s admissions to hospital wards are related to the presence of such a disease*. ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/CheckCircle.svg) With knowledge of mutations, you can take steps to delay, control or even avoid the onset of a disease for which you have a genetic predisposition.

The report for a child includes 324 genes, the report for an adult – 59 genes. The Plumcare and DNA SOLO report is sent by up to 20 weeks after birth. [ See sample report ](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Sample_Report_Child-Negative.pdf) ## Who can take the PlumCare Advisor DNA test? Everyone. The test can be done for both an adult and a child (DNA is isolated from saliva taken into a special kit provided by PBKM). The PlumCare DNA Advisor genetic test can also be performed for a newborn child who has had cord blood drawn after birth (DNA isolation from a drop of cord blood), but such an intention must be communicated to the consultant when signing the cord blood banking contract. ## Not as much as you think, i.e. how much does Plumcare DNA Advisor cost? The long-held opinion has been that genetic testing is expensive. And indeed, the prices at which single genes are tested can be dizzying, especially if you want to test several individual genes. Definitely more affordable is the WES (whole exome sequencing) test. The market price of such a test reaches up to PLN 6,000. The PlumCare DNA Advisor test is a comprehensive genetic service, performed using the WES method, which is priced at PLN 4,800 (testing from saliva for adults and older children) or PLN 4,950 (testing from a drop of cord blood for a baby before birth) in PBKM’s regular offer. ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/info-white-fill.png) ## Do you want to learn more and take advantage of promotions for Parents expecting a baby to be born? or maybe You want to do a test for an adult or a child who does not have cord blood secured and get a discount?

We feel obliged to help the most needy families affected by severe illness. We enable and finance cord blood donations to the public bank. In addition, PBKM has the option of waiving most of the fee for cord blood donation, under the “Donation to the Rescue” program. ## Public cord blood bank The public cord blood bank is a place where you can donate cord blood if you don’t want to have it for your family. The main goal is to increase the stock of cord blood stored in Poland, and thus increase access to treatment for those in need outside the family. PBKM’s partner in this campaign is the Ministry of Health. The cost of operating the public bank, from its own funds, is covered by PBKM. ![kriostat](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/kriostat.webp) As part of this initiative, PBKM enables cord blood donation at selected hospitals in Warsaw and conducts an annual nationwide Cord Blood Days campaign at selected hospitals, nationwide. Parents who choose to donate cord blood to the public bank are choosing to make a beautiful gesture. They are donating precious stem cells that can save someone’s life and health, but unlike family banking- they are relinquishing rights to it. This means that they do not bear the cost of obtaining and storing the cord blood, but they give up the possibility of using it if the need arises in the future. ![Icon](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/FileArrowDown.svg) ## Full content of the consents [ Download PDF ](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/zgody_do_umowy_oswiadczenia_dotyczace_dawstwa_tkanek_poplodu.pdf) ## Download to Rescue Program The program is organized by the Polish Stem Cell Bank to save the lives and health of seriously ill children. The program is open to families who have a seriously ill child and wish to collect cord blood at the birth of their next offspring and use it for treatment. The only costs they incur are a portion of the preparation fee and banking costs when the blood is stored for more than a year. ![kacper-thumbnail](https://www.pbkm.pl/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/kacper-thumbnail.webp) How to join the Cord Blood Donation to the Rescue Program? Parents (or legal guardians) present PBKM with documents an extract from the child’s medical history with the diagnosis or a certificate from the attending physician that the child can be treated with stem cells, and an application to join the Cord Blood Donation Program to the Rescue. The above documents should be sent to PBKM’s address. Upon approval of the application, PBKM will exempt Parents from a significant portion of the fees (basic fee and banking of less than one year). --- --- title: "13 years after cord blood stem cell transplant – Dominica’s story" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/pregnancy-zone-2/good-to-know/13-years-after-cord-blood-stem-cell-transplant-dominicas-story" lang: "pl" type: "pregnancy_zone" description: "Learn the story of Dominika, who 13 years ago underwent a stem cell transplant from umbilical cord blood taken during the birth of her younger brother.\nThanks to the therapy, Dominica was cured of a severe disease - Fanconi anemia." last_modified: "2024-08-02T07:52:53+00:00" translations: pl: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/pregnancy-zone-2/good-to-know/13-years-after-cord-blood-stem-cell-transplant-dominicas-story" --- # 13 years after cord blood stem cell transplant – Dominica’s story ## What was the diagnosis of the disease? Dominica’s disease was initially misdiagnosed. Doctors treated the girl for a long time for thrombocytopenia. Unfortunately, as it later turned out, the diagnosis was different. Dominika suffered from Fanconi anemia – a form of congenital anemia. ## Course of treatment The only salvation for the girl was a stem cell transplant from the bone marrow. Due to the genetic basis of the disease, Dominica’s parents were excluded as potential bone marrow donors. A compatible donor in the registry, despite many years, was also not found. During her second pregnancy, it turned out that Dominica’s younger brother Kacper could be the donor. The parents decided to collect his umbilical cord blood during delivery, which contains hematopoietic stem cells. Dominika underwent a combined donation in 2011 – stem cells from her bone marrow and her little brother’s cord blood. ## Effects of stem cell transplantation Thanks to effective treatment, Dominica was able to recover quickly and return to her former life and friends. _Our story is a good example of how once it was only the 5th stem cell transplant in Poland, it was practically a lifesaver for us, the only chance for our daughter to be cured,_ ” recalls Mrs. Dorota, Dominica’s mother. As Dominika emphasizes – _I believe that cord blood banking is worth taking advantage of by looking at its potential, not by the number of uses_. --- --- title: "Certifications and accreditations" url: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/about-us/certifications-and-accreditations" lang: "pl" type: "page" last_modified: "2024-08-02T11:55:13+00:00" translations: pl: "https://www.pbkm.pl/en/about-us/certifications-and-accreditations" --- # Certifications and accreditations # Certificates and accreditations ## Our certificates By choosing to deposit cord blood, parents entrust the bank with their child’s priceless stem cells for years to come.
