Why does the left side of the abdomen hurt during pregnancy?

Nowadays, more and more new parents are getting pregnant without any preparation. Some expectant mothers may experience a drastic change in temperament due to sudden pregnancy. Of course, expectant fathers may also experience this change, but it happens more often to pregnant women. When pregnant women (especially those in the early stages of pregnancy) find themselves feeling any physical discomfort, they must seek medical attention immediately. Perhaps many discomforts are normal, but new parents cannot be sure which ones are normal and which ones are abnormal, so they should ask their doctors more questions to ensure the safety of the pregnant woman and the baby.

There are many reasons for left abdominal pain in early pregnancy. Some of them are normal physiological phenomena. Generally, physiological abdominal pain is not very serious and the onset time is also very short. It is mainly because the uterus becomes larger after pregnancy and the uterine ligaments are involved. It generally does not affect daily life. Abdominal pain is not fixed for occupation. If there is no organic disease after examination, then there is no need for treatment at all. Abdominal pain in early pregnancy is common in: 1.

Patients with ectopic pregnancy generally have abdominal pain, but most of them have abdominal pain on one side, and there will also be irregular vaginal bleeding. 3. Patients with organic diseases, ovarian cysts, and uterine fibroids must see a doctor as soon as possible if the symptoms are more severe and last for a long time, and are accompanied by bleeding.

Symptoms of early pregnancy 3 - Breast changes After pregnancy, under the joint stimulation of estrogen and progesterone, at the beginning of pregnancy, the breasts gradually grow larger, the color of the nipples and areola deepens, and dark brown nodules appear around the nipples. After 12 weeks, a small amount of clear milk will be secreted. Symptom 4 of early pregnancy: cessation of menstruation. This is the most common sign of pregnancy that people notice. As long as a woman is of childbearing age and has normal menstruation, she may be pregnant if her period stops for more than two weeks after sexual intercourse. But not having your period does not mean you are pregnant. There are many reasons why your period may be late, such as poor ovarian function, abnormal hormone secretion, busy work, exam stress, etc., which can cause late menstruation. Therefore, it is best to get a doctor's diagnosis, which is the safest. Symptom 5 of early pregnancy - Changes in skin color. In the early stages of pregnancy, you may experience skin pigmentation or stretch marks on the abdominal wall, which will be more obvious in the later stages of pregnancy. Early pregnancy symptom 6 - frequent urination and urgent urination. In the third month of pregnancy, the bladder is compressed by the growing uterus, making the bladder capacity smaller, and frequent urination and urgent urination often occur. Early pregnancy symptom 7 - Vaginal mucosal discoloration In the early stages of pregnancy, the vaginal mucosa may appear darker in color due to congestion. This can be determined by a doctor. In the early stages of pregnancy, due to hormonal changes in the body, the expectant mother's body will experience some discomfort symptoms, namely early pregnancy reactions. At the same time, the early stages of pregnancy are a period when the cells of the fetus rapidly divide and grow, and all the important organs of the fetus are formed during this period. Therefore, this period is very important for both expectant mothers and fetuses. In order to ensure the safety of the fetus that has just settled in the uterus, the expectant mother must adjust her life, diet, exercise and other hobbies and habits to safely spend this special period with the fetus.
