Once the child is born, no one is interested in the placenta anymore. However, it can provide doctors with important information about illnesses and future problems.
Attention party knowledge: What is the name of the organ that only grows in the body for a certain time and is disposed of after use?
Correct! The placenta!
This palm-sized organ, which sticks firmly to the inner wall of the uterus, is created anew for each pregnancy. The fact that the body is able to create an organ for a limited time is incredible in itself. The fact that the placenta also functions as a lung, kidney and digestive tract for the developing embryo in the few months of its existence is probably one of the most fascinating processes in human nature.
