Expert answer:
In the case of neutrophilia during pregnancy the cause of neutrophilia must be investigated.
Neutrophilia is the increase in the number of neutrophils, which is a type of blood cell that participates in fighting infections.
These cells are usually increased during pregnancy, and this is a variation considered normal for this phase of life.
However, some features of neutrophilia may show signs of complications such as infections, inflammation, and even some tumors.
Therefore, the obstetrician who accompanies the pregnant woman and who requested the examination should be consulted, so that the exact diagnosis is made and the treatment, when necessary, is initiated.
