A member asked:
A colleague of mine is 20 weeks pregnant. her placenta has a tear and is not growing. is there anything that she can eat or take or do to assist her placenta to grow and heal? what are the chances of a healthy early pregnancy?

Specialist: It is not clear exactly what is meant by the terminology of a “tear in the placenta.” Your friend should see an Obgyn or a specialist known as a Perinatologist to get a full evaluation. Then a specific prenatal care plan can be designed to help guide her through the process to optimize outcome. Eating specific foods is not going to be helpful in this situation.
