What are the symptoms of early pregnancy

Since the belly in the early stages of pregnancy is not as big as in the late stages of pregnancy, most women are generally unaware that they are pregnant in the early stages of pregnancy. In fact, in the early stages of pregnancy, women will also have some physical symptoms. If a woman is not sure whether she is pregnant, she should learn about some early pregnancy symptoms, guess whether she is pregnant, and pay more attention to some small things in life.

What are the symptoms of early pregnancy

In the early stages of pregnancy, many women don't even know they are pregnant. So what are the symptoms of early pregnancy?

1. Amenorrhea: The most obvious symptom in early pregnancy is cessation of menstruation. If a couple has had sex before or after ovulation and has not taken any contraceptive measures, and their menstrual cycle is normal, but they suddenly experience amenorrhea symptoms for more than 5 days, they may be pregnant.

2. Nausea and vomiting: Many pregnant women will experience morning sickness starting from the 5th week of pregnancy. Nausea may occur especially in the morning and evening, and vomiting may occur without any reason.

3. Swollen and tender breasts: One or two weeks after conception, the breasts will become enlarged, softer and more sore.

4. Mild vaginal bleeding: The fertilized egg will implant in the uterus within 6 to 12 days after conception, which may cause mild vaginal bleeding in pregnant women. Vaginal bleeding is mild and there are no serious discomfort symptoms. There is no need to worry. This is a normal physiological reaction when the fertilized egg implants and does not cause any harm to the human body.

What to do if you have lower abdominal pain in early pregnancy

Abdominal pain is a normal physiological reaction in early pregnancy. This is because the enlarged uterus stimulates the bones, causing a dull pulling pain in the abdomen. However, it should be noted that if the abdominal pain persists and is accompanied by bleeding symptoms, you should be admitted to the hospital for examination immediately. This pathological abdominal pain may indicate signs of miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy. Therefore, when you have abdominal pain in the early stages of pregnancy, how can you quickly distinguish whether it is physiological abdominal pain or pathological abdominal pain?

1. Ultrasound examination: If you have abdominal pain in the early stages of pregnancy, it is recommended to have an abdominal ultrasound examination. Within six or seven weeks from the last menstrual period, it can be confirmed whether the embryonic sac has implanted in the center of the uterus. Ultrasound examination through the vagina can also see the embryonic sac a week earlier

2. Pregnancy maintenance: Human chorionic gonadotropin injection is a common method of preserving pregnancy, but it is best to decide whether it is necessary after understanding the status of human chorionic gonadotropin and progesterone in the body. You can also try taking Chinese medicine to regulate your body and protect your pregnancy.

3. Treatment of miscarriage: Abdominal pain in the early stages of pregnancy, accompanied by abnormal vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain, and discomfort in the lower abdomen may be a sign of miscarriage. In this case, you must seek medical attention as soon as possible, and only choose to terminate the pregnancy after it is confirmed to be an ectopic pregnancy or that the pregnancy cannot be preserved.
