Abstract

Introduction: Even though the COVID-19 pandemic has come to an end, several short-term and delayed consequences of coronavirus infection remain insufficiently studied, which determines the relevance of this study. The study aims to analyse the impact of coronavirus infection on the course of pregnancy and reproductive health of females of fertile age in different periods according to the data of medical institutions of Turkestan city.
Methods: The following research methods were used in the study: bibliographic, discrete statistics, cluster, and frequency analysis.
Results: In this study, 301 cases of pregnancy of females diagnosed with coronavirus infection of different severity were statistically analysed. The study examined several aspects related to the study group including duration of hospitalisation, number of previous pregnancies and deliveries, complications of pregnancy and delivery occurring on COVID-19, haematological parameters, and oxygen saturation levels of pregnant females. The main clinical features of pregnancies with COVID-19 were identified. Thus, the result of the study was an analysis of the presented statistical sample and a comprehensive review of the current literature on the short-term and delayed effects of coronavirus infection on the female reproductive system.
Conclusions: The results obtained are of significant practical importance for specialists in obstetrics, gynaecology, reproductology and public health because they can serve as a basis for the development of effective clinical recommendations and strategies for managing the reproductive health of females who have undergone coronavirus infection
