Study in Nature Neuroscience Reveals First Detailed Map of Brain Changes During Pregnancy
Sep 16, 2024, 04:16 PM
A new study has revealed significant changes in a woman's brain during pregnancy. The research, published in Nature Neuroscience, shows that pregnancy triggers vast changes in a woman's body, including hormonal, cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal, and urinary systems. Scans capture a sweeping reorganization of the brain, offering a detailed picture of the brain's metamorphosis during and after pregnancy, highlighting the brain's plasticity. Some regions of the brain may shrink in size but have better connectivity, with only a few regions remaining untouched. This work could help understand complications and offer insights into the brain's remarkable adaptability. Scientists emphasize that this research is a team sport, involving collaboration among experts.
