我早产的几率有多大?

Doctors can determine your risk—or chance—of having a second 早产 by getting 彻底回顾你的过去 怀孕.

事实上,医生已经发现了很多 早产的危险因素. 早产, a risk factor is anything that increases your chances of giving birth to a preemie.

以前的早产

The biggest risk factor for giving birth to a preemie is having a previous 早产. This means that if you’ve given birth to a preemie in the past, you have a much higher chance of giving birth to a preemie again.

对于有过一次早产的女性, their chance of giving birth to another preemie is approximately 35–40 percent. 

Other risk factors for having a preemie include:

  • 生双胞胎或三胞胎,
  • having fetal abnormalities (medical problems in a fetus) that can cause excess amniotic fluid,
  • having uterine problems (such as your uterus or cervix having an abnormal shape),
  • having vaginal bleeding during your 怀孕,
  • and experiencing premature rupture of your membranes.

A woman’s chances of having another preemie also depend on:

  • How early the 早产(s) happened (earlier births = higher risk).
  • The number of 早产s (more 早产s = higher risk).
  • How long it has been since the last 早产 (shorter time = higher risk).

早产会遗传吗?

Many studies suggest that 早产 does run in families. Women who were born early themselves have a higher chance of delivering their own infants too.

Recent data has also shown that sisters and female cousins of women who have given birth to preemies have a higher chance of having a 早产. 

If you or a member of your family has given birth to a preemie, please contact our clinic so we can assess your own chance of having a 早产.
