Why does the lower right side of my abdomen hurt during pregnancy?

Many people feel pain in the lower abdomen during pregnancy. This is a very normal phenomenon, because sometimes if the amount of exercise is too large, or a certain movement twists the abdomen, it will naturally feel pain. However, if there is bleeding below during the pain, it is more serious, because it is likely to be a sign of threatened abortion. So what is the reason for pain in the lower right side of the abdomen during pregnancy?

Many pregnant women experience pain on the right side of their abdomen in the early stages of pregnancy. In fact, it is normal to have slight pain on the right side of the abdomen in early pregnancy. This is because the growing uterus stimulates the bones. Generally speaking, the pain of an enlarging uterus is bearable and lasts for a dozen or twenty minutes at most. If the pain lasts for several days in a row, it is definitely abnormal. If the pain is in the lower right abdomen, it is recommended to do a routine blood test to see if there is inflammation.

In the early stages of pregnancy, many pregnant women will feel abdominal pain, and may also experience early pregnancy reactions such as nausea and vomiting. This is caused by excessive secretion of gastric acid in the early stages of pregnancy. No special treatment is required, but you must pay attention to your diet, which should be light and easily digestible. Abdominal pain is a normal physiological reaction in early pregnancy. Because the uterus enlarges and stimulates the bones, pregnant women will feel a dull pulling pain in the abdomen. But it is worth noting 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 abdominal pain occurs in early pregnancy, we must learn to distinguish whether it is physiological abdominal pain or pathological abdominal pain.

The above is the introduction to why pregnant women have pain on the right side of their abdomen. In short, pregnant women must take abdominal pain seriously. Sometimes it may be physiological pain, or it may be pathological, such as ectopic pregnancy. So if the expectant mother has persistent stomach pain, please go to the hospital for examination in time.
