What to do if you have bleeding stools during pregnancy

Many pregnant women have safety issues during pregnancy, which seriously threatens the health of the patients. Therefore, patients should pay attention to taking timely treatment methods to ensure the safety of patients and avoid problems that affect the safety of pregnant women. So what should I do if I have bleeding stools during pregnancy? Let me introduce it to you below.

There is a high possibility of blood in the stool, which may be caused by hemorrhoid bleeding, bleeding diseases, or certain systemic diseases such as severe infection leading to abnormal coagulation function. Since you are pregnant now, no matter what the cause of the bleeding is, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for examination to clarify the nature, cause and amount of bleeding, and then treat it symptomatically. Do not wait until symptoms appear to delay treatment.

In your case, it may be hemorrhoids. Standing or sitting for a long time, constipation, diarrhea, excessive drinking and eating spicy food can induce hemorrhoids. Considering the possible effects of drugs on the fetus, hemorrhoids during pregnancy are generally not treated. After getting up every morning, develop a good habit of squatting regularly to prevent constipation.

Bleeding in the stool is most likely caused by hemorrhoids. As the pregnancy progresses, the uterus presses on the pelvic cavity, which will aggravate the hemorrhoids. If it is only a small amount of occasional bleeding and does not cause anemia, it will not affect the child. However, if the bleeding is heavy and lasts for a long time and causes anemia, it will have adverse effects on the child. Therefore, it is recommended that you go to the anorectal department of the hospital for a check-up, do a colonoscopy, identify the cause of bleeding, and deal with it in time to avoid adverse effects on your own and your child's health.

The above is my opinion on this issue that I introduced to you. If the patient has the above problems, then the patient should pay attention to timely treatment to ensure the health of the body, avoid dangerous situations caused by the above problems, and avoid the occurrence of this problem affecting the safety of pregnant women.
