My gynecologist told me, at my last exam that I might have placenta previa. He had no time to explain to me. I have never heard about this term "placenta previa". Is this dangerous thing? Can this thing affect my pregnancy and my baby? Can this be treated? And how that can be done?

Placenta previa is a condition, when your placenta is not attached to your uterus in a proper place. It supposes to be on walls of uterus. But in your case it is near your uternal cervics. It can also be on "the entrance" of your uterus. This can be dangerous if not recognized and treated. It also can affect pregnancy and can cause loss of baby. But, as you write you already have fine gynecologist, who will treat this. If treated, this condition is not dangerous. Obey your doctor;s advice and you will be fine.
