How do I know if I am pregnant? What should I do if I don’t know if I am pregnant?

In life, many women do not show any physical reaction after pregnancy, so they tend to ignore their physical condition and need to observe their physical condition in time to determine whether they are pregnant. Generally, if a woman's menstruation is delayed for more than a week, or two red bars are detected on the pregnancy test paper, it means that she is already in the early pregnancy period and needs to observe her physical health in time.

How do I know if I am pregnant?

1. No menstrual period

Women have their periods every month. For women with regular menstruation, if they find that their periods have been delayed for a week without any contraceptive measures, then they are most likely pregnant. You can use an early pregnancy test to check whether it is positive. If two bars appear, it means you are pregnant.

2. Food aversion

If women of childbearing age do not take any contraceptive measures and suddenly feel nauseous and vomit when they see food, especially in the morning, and the vomiting symptoms are most obvious, they may not want to eat the fried food they usually like, and even feel like vomiting when they smell it. This is very likely that she is pregnant. Medically, this reaction is called early pregnancy reaction, which usually occurs in the early stages of pregnancy and may disappear automatically after a month.

3. Frequent urination

In the early stages of pregnancy, due to the implantation of the fertilized egg and the development of the embryo, the original uterus will expand and compress the female bladder, causing frequent urination in women. This is also related to the secretion of human chorionic gonadotropin in the body after pregnancy. Symptoms of frequent urination usually occur in the early and late stages of pregnancy, so if you want to know whether you are pregnant, you should also pay attention to your usual urination frequency.

4. Always feeling hot

Under normal circumstances, the human body temperature is around 36 degrees, but during the ovulation period, the body temperature of women will rise (about 0.5 degrees). If you want to know whether you are pregnant, you can record your body temperature this month. If the body temperature remains slightly high for more than two weeks and there is no menstruation, then it can be preliminarily determined that you are pregnant.

What should I do if I don’t know if I’m pregnant?

Early symptoms of pregnancy

Changes in appetite. Some women begin to experience a change in appetite shortly after their menstrual period (1-2 weeks). The things that I usually like to eat, I don’t like to eat them anymore. I won’t like the food I’ve eaten once the second time. Some people simply don’t want to eat or even feel like vomiting, and some people crave something sour. Generally, after half a month to a month, these symptoms will disappear naturally.

Breast changes. If you have a high-intensity job and a fast-paced life, and you are already eight weeks pregnant and don’t know it, abnormal changes in your breasts can also be an important reminder for you. After eight weeks of pregnancy, the breasts will feel swollen, numb, and slightly itchy. The color of the nipples will gradually darken, and there will be dark brown nodules around the nipples. After 12 weeks, there will be a small amount of clear milk secretion.

Radiant. Due to the increase in blood flow during pregnancy, your face may be much rosier than usual. In addition, since the sebaceous glands will also secrete more oil, people around you may think that you are more radiant than usual. Some expectant mothers have a red face, and that bright red face is very similar to the blushing face caused by excitement, crying, or other factors that cause the heartbeat to accelerate (the expectant mother's heartbeat will be faster than usual).
