Why does a woman's lower abdomen beat?

Many women are very sensitive to some symptoms in their bodies, such as cramping in the lower abdomen during ovulation and abdominal pain during menstruation. Some pregnant women often feel a fluttering sensation in their abdomen. What is the reason for fluttering in the lower abdomen of pregnant women? It may be the pulsation of the abdominal arteries, or it may be a reaction during pregnancy. Let's learn about it in detail.

If you feel abdominal beating during the third month of pregnancy, it is not caused by fetal movement. If the frequency of the beating is consistent with the heartbeat, it is considered to be the pulsation of the abdominal artery. If you are of a relatively thin body shape, you will feel the pulsation of the abdominal artery more obviously. If there are no other discomforts, then it is ruled out that it is not caused by pregnancy. Generally, this feeling will disappear when the pregnancy reaches 3 months, and the throbbing feeling in the abdomen will also disappear as the uterus grows. As long as it has been confirmed that it is intrauterine, you can rest assured. Pay attention to whether there is abdominal pain or vaginal bleeding. If so, look for signs of miscarriage first, and you need to go to the hospital.

The abdominal pain of early pregnancy is manifested as some not very severe abdominal pain and discomfort in the early stages of pregnancy, but it does not last long and is often accompanied by vomiting. This is a manifestation of early pregnancy reaction. Pain in the upper abdomen is mostly caused by the physiological increase in gastric acid secretion in early pregnancy. Occasional cramping in the lower abdomen is related to the enlarged uterus pulling upward on the ligaments that support the uterus. These pains and discomforts will naturally disappear as the early stages of pregnancy pass. The pain caused by the enlarged uterus manifests as lower abdominal pain during the 3rd to 4th month of pregnancy. During this period, the uterus grows relatively quickly, and the organs around the uterus are squeezed, causing lower abdominal pain. As the pregnancy progresses, the symptoms of uterine compression gradually improve, and the pain will be alleviated or disappear completely.

If your belly flutters and you rule out fetal movement, it could be an ectopic pregnancy, so you must get relevant checks done in a timely manner. I hope this article can help you.
