Are you pregnant and still menstruating?

In daily life, some female friends are pregnant and still have their periods. First, they need to make sure whether they are really pregnant, because there is no menstruation in a normal and healthy pregnancy. If you are pregnant and still have your periods, it may have a lot to do with your physical constitution and health status. Scientific examinations must be conducted to determine whether it is related to illness. Therefore, this situation should be taken seriously.

1. Pregnancy and menstruation

First of all, if a woman is really pregnant and the pregnancy is very healthy, she will not have menstruation. It is only possible to have menstruation after giving birth to a baby. Amenorrhea is one of the manifestations of a woman's pregnancy. However, some women still experience vaginal bleeding after pregnancy. The main reasons are: 1) Because the fertilized egg is not yet stable after implantation and the placenta has not yet formed, and when it is close to or on the day of menstruation, a mature egg will still be discharged and then discharged from the body along with the shedding of the endometrium, causing a small amount of bleeding, which the pregnant woman thinks is menstruation. 2) If there is still no bleeding or fetal heartbeat after two months of pregnancy, and vaginal bleeding occurs later, it is probably caused by miscarriage and you should go to the hospital for further examination. 3) Low progesterone may sometimes cause vaginal bleeding.

Since everyone's physique is different, clinically there are cases of normal menstruation during pregnancy. This situation is most common in women with double uterus and double vagina. There is concern that a very small number of women who do not have double uterus and double vagina will also have monthly menstruation during pregnancy, but it is not a case of threatened abortion. However, it does not mean that the fetus is developing abnormally. You can rule out pathological conditions based on your own examination results.

2. Bleeding during pregnancy

If you experience vaginal bleeding during pregnancy, don't panic. The best way to judge whether something is normal during pregnancy is actually to use your own senses. Many people have heard of threatened miscarriage, which also involves bleeding during pregnancy. Unlike normal menstruation during pregnancy, during threatened abortion, the pregnant woman will feel strong sensations such as abdominal pain and bloating.

In addition to the sensory differences, bleeding during pregnancy should also be initially judged based on the time and amount of bleeding. At first, it was popularized that during pregnancy, bleeding continued during menstruation. This was normal, but the premise was that the amount was small, not really a lot of bleeding like before pregnancy. Under normal circumstances, menstrual blood should be so little that only a blood mark was left on the sanitary napkin, which can be said to be very little. The time should be the first three days of menstruation.

Women's physical conditions vary greatly, and pregnant women and their families should not judge pregnant women based on a single standard. For example, bleeding during pregnancy. The reason why some pregnant women still bleed during pregnancy is that they will have a stress response such as bleeding after the fertilized egg implants in their body. The general standard is that as long as you don’t feel obvious physical discomfort, such as lower abdominal pain, you can rest and observe.

Although bleeding during pregnancy is a manifestation of gynecological diseases such as cervical erosion and cervical polyps, it is more common in older women or pregnant women who have had experience of pregnancy and miscarriage. If the woman is young and it is her first pregnancy, the chance of developing the disease is very small. If this is not your first time as a mother, you should use your last pregnancy experience as a reference to determine whether this pregnancy is normal. Of course, the reactions of the same person to two pregnancies will be different, so it is best to use whether there is abnormal pain as the standard.
