1. What is Polyhydramnios

Polyhydramnios is a pregnancy-related condition in which there is an excessive accumulation of amniotic fluid around the fetus. Normally, the amniotic sac contains just enough fluid to cushion and support fetal development. In polyhydramnios, the fluid volume is abnormally high, which can lead to complications for both the mother and baby if not managed properly.

2. Types of Polyhydramnios

• Mild Polyhydramnios – Slightly increased fluid, often without major complications.
• Moderate Polyhydramnios – Noticeable increase, may cause maternal discomfort and potential risks.
• Severe Polyhydramnios – Large excess of amniotic fluid, leading to significant risks like preterm labor or breathing difficulty for the mother.

3. Causes of Polyhydramnios

• Maternal Diabetes – Uncontrolled blood sugar levels during pregnancy.
• Fetal Abnormalities – Such as digestive tract blockages or nervous system issues.
• Multiple Pregnancy – Twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome in identical twins.
• Infections – Viral or parasitic infections affecting pregnancy.
• Idiopathic – In many cases, no definite cause is found.
