Does frequent sneezing cause low lying placenta?
Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I am 5 months pregnant. I had an ultrasound scan today and my placenta is "anterior, 2.7cm above the internal O.S". Since a week, I have also developed piles which has subsided a little bit now. I travel to work by bus and sometimes by a 4 wheeler auto. My weight has been 55 kg since 5 months but the baby's growth is normal as per the scan. My doctor has given me progesterone tablets as of now and also an ointment for piles. I wish to know if I can continue working.
Will travelling be dangerous for my baby?
My due date is on November 30th. Will I be able to work till October 30th or should I stop working now?
Is there any particular food pattern that I should follow because I have developed piles?
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I have read and understood your problem.
- In your ultrasound scan placenta is anterior, 2.7cm above the internal O.S. Well this is in low lying placenta at present and may move upwards as pregnancy advances.
- For weight gain you should increase food intake, and take more liquids to keep the stool soft.
- Since you travel by road, take precautions that you do not get much jerks, hold on to your seat to restrict sudden movements.
- Working or travelling does not affect the baby.
- You may continue to work if you do not develop any complications.
- But stop travelling if you have any bleeding or water leak.
- Whether you will be able to work till October 30th depends on how every thing goes well.
Best wishes for healthy pregnancy.

Patient's Query
Thank you doctor,
- I have frequent sneezing. Did the placenta come down due to sneezing?
- What else is the reason for this situation? Can anything be done to bring it upwards?
- What kind of food should I consume?
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
- Placenta does not come down with sneezing or any other load.
- It is attached to the uterine wall and as the uterus increases in size, placenta's distance from internal os may increase.
- There is no reason for this position. It is simple that it is attached at a lower position and nothing can be done to move it upwards.
- Regarding food, I had already mentioned that you should take more liquids to keep the stool soft, as you have piles.
- Avoid foods that in your experience cause constipation.
- Food should be nutritious and should include fruits and vegetables.
- Also you should take iron, folic acid, calcium as advised by doctor.
