In the month of November, we observe Prematurity Awareness Month, a time to shine a light on the pressing issue of premature births. In the Philippines, ang premature birth o maagang panganganak ay may mga kaakibat na panganib at kadahilanan. Here are the risks, causes, and statistics associated with this phenomenon:

COMMON RISKS and CAUSES:

• Mother's Age: Mas mataas ang panganib kung ang ina ay bata pa o labis nang matanda.

•Short Intervals Between Pregnancies: Subsequent pregnancies occurring in quick succession can increase the likelihood of premature birth.

•Mother's Health: Preexisting health conditions such as diabetes or hypertension can contribute to premature birth. Ang mababang timbang at unhealthy condition ng ay malaking factor sa prematurity ng bata.

• Lifestyle Factors: Smoking and alcohol consumption during pregnancy can heighten the risk.

• Emotional Well-being: Maternal stress and life traumas can have an impact as well.

Hindi malinaw ang eksaktong sanhi ng premature birth, ngunit maaaring maging epekto ito ng kombinasyon ng mga nabanggit na kadahilanan.

Sa Pilipinas, ang percentage ng premature births ay umaabot sa mga 10% hanggang 15% ng lahat ng panganganak. Ito'y isang malubhang issue sa kalusugan na nangangailangan ng awareness at pangangalaga mula sa community at mga taong nakapaligid sa mga mothers.

Let us come together as a community to not only understand the risks and causes but also to support one another and promote a culture of healthy pregnancies. The health of our newborns is a reflection of our collective commitment to a brighter and healthier future.
