  Many people more than all pregnant women will be asked because they send in laboratory tests for the detection of toxoplasmosis, with this short post I will give you a little information regarding this topic.

 
Toxoplasmosis is an infection caused by a parasite called toxoplasma gondi, this parasite affects mostly cats and farm animals due to contaminated water consumption, however having a cat at home is not a sign that it is infected for those people who think that having one as a pet already has the parasite. those that could present the parasite are the wild cats that are hunting mice and birds eating raw meat and drinking contaminated waters, if you have a cat as your pet and you have it at home the risk of this being infected is very low.

 However, the reason why it is valued in laboratory tests in pregnant women is because this parasite invades the cells of its host, whether human or animal and this has the capacity in pregnant women to cross the placental barrier and has the facility to attack the The fetus that is forming in the womb is known as congenital toxoplasmosis.

 For this reason the doctors in their preliminary studies make sure that the mother does not have antibodies formed for this parasites, whether they are IgM or IgG. where the IgM indicates disease is presenting it at the moment, while the IgG indicates that at some point I present it.

Among the routes of contagion that can be avoided in pregnancy for toxoplasma gondi are not to consume raw meat, raw eggs, unpasteurized raw milk. Avoid collecting feces of felines that could be infected.
