3. Lowered Immunity
There are many different health conditions which have the potential to affect just how well your immune system functions and HELLP Syndrome is just one of the thousands of conditions that can do this; when your immune system is compromised due to illness, an unhealthy lifestyle or any health conditions which are directly related to compromising the immune system (such as cancers), you are much more likely to get sick in general – and you might pick up everything from last season’s flu through to childhood diseases that you have been vaccinated against already.
When you are pregnant, a lowered immunity for any reason presents a considerably larger amount of risk; it will likely mean that your entire pregnancy should be approached in close cooperation with your doctor from start to finish to minimize the number of possible health risks to you and your baby that might occur during the pregnancy.
