Pregnant women are the key population for urinary iodine testing

Newly married women of childbearing age, pregnant, giving birth, and lactating women have always been the key populations that need to be tested for iodine because iodine is extremely important for fetal development.

Medical research has found that there are two critical periods for human brain development: the first critical period is from the third month of pregnancy to before birth, called the intrauterine period. If the pregnant woman's body is deficient in iodine at this time, it will directly affect the brain development of the fetus. The second critical period is from childbirth to two years old. If iodine deficiency occurs at this time, it will cause mental retardation. In terms of the degree and importance of brain development, the intrauterine period is more important than the postnatal period, because a normal, mature and healthy brain tissue is mainly developed in the embryonic period. The iodine supply of the fetus comes from the mother, so the iodine requirement of pregnant women is much higher than that of other women. Once iodine is deficient, the ability of the pregnant woman's thyroid to compete with the fetus for iodine will increase, which will make the fetus more iodine deficient and cause serious obstacles to brain development. Hearing, language and mental development disorders appear in mild cases after birth, and in severe cases, they are in a state of idiocy or idiocy. Therefore, pregnant women and fetuses are the most seriously affected by iodine deficiency.

Therefore, in order to protect the intellectual development of children from the harm of iodine deficiency, pregnant women and lactating women should know whether they are iodine deficient in their bodies. Urine iodine level test is carried out in 9 months. If the urine iodine content is found to be low, it means that the pregnant woman is undernourished and should be supplemented with iodine in time.

In order to ensure the health of pregnant women and fetuses, it is recommended to use Cykrud automatic urine iodine detector to detect iodine elements in the early, middle and late pregnancy to prevent problems such as fetal brain development caused by iodine deficiency.
