Some people think that diarrhea can cause miscarriage, so can diarrhea cause miscarriage?

First, will diarrhea lead to miscarriage? Some pregnant women will experience diarrhea one month into their pregnancy. At this time, they will be in a dilemma: should they endure it or take medicine for treatment immediately? In fact, you should never endure diarrhea one month into your pregnancy, otherwise if it is serious, it may lead to miscarriage.

Second, diarrhea during pregnancy is very harmful. First of all, frequent or severe diarrhea during pregnancy, if not stopped by taking medicine in time, will affect the pregnant woman's absorption of nutrients, thereby affecting the nutritional status of the fetus. Secondly, when suffering from diarrhea, women’s bodies will secrete a natural chemical component called prostaglandin, which will further stimulate the intestines and aggravate diarrhea symptoms; at the same time, this chemical component will also stimulate uterine contractions, which may lead to miscarriage and premature birth. Finally, some diarrhea itself is a "warning" of premature birth or miscarriage, and pregnant women must take it seriously.

Third, there are many reasons that cause diarrhea in pregnant women. The most common cause of diarrhea in pregnant women is infection, such as infection with Salmonella. Therefore, during pregnancy, especially in the first three months, the cleanliness of food must be strictly controlled. If a pregnant woman has diarrhea frequently, with severe symptoms and long duration, she should seek medical attention promptly and use appropriate rehydration therapy to replenish the water, electrolytes and calories lost due to diarrhea. If the condition is serious, she should take medication under the guidance of a doctor.

After a pregnant woman has diarrhea, she should find out the cause and adjust her lifestyle in time to prevent the diarrhea from becoming more serious. Pregnant women should pay attention to the following aspects after diarrhea: use medications with caution. Pregnant women should not rush to take medicine when they have diarrhea. They must comprehensively analyze the causes of their diarrhea. If medication is not necessary, try not to use it. If you need to take medication, be sure to take it under the guidance of a doctor.
