Pregnant women are relatively sensitive individuals. They need to pay special attention to food and medication, otherwise it will affect the development of the fetus. Pregnant women will have various pregnancy reactions, the most common of which are nausea, vomiting, and stomach discomfort. In order to relieve everyone's confusion, the following are the reasons for stomach discomfort in pregnant women. 1. It is because the uterus becomes larger during pregnancy, which compresses the stomach and intestinal organs, causing them to shift. When the stomach and intestinal organs shift, the original ligaments will be pulled, causing abdominal pain. Most of this pain can be relieved by bed rest. 2. Due to the increase in blood flow, it is easy to cause abdominal discomfort. This is just like after eating, a large amount of blood will flow into the gastrointestinal tract, making the stomach become more swollen, and some people even feel dizzy. By the same token, during pregnancy, a large amount of blood will flow into the uterus to provide the nutrients needed for fetal growth. As a result of the blood flow effect, the abdomen becomes uncomfortable. 3. The progesterone in the hormone slows down the peristalsis of the gastrointestinal tract, reduces its tension, and slows down the emptying time, which can easily cause constipation and abdominal discomfort. The above are the reasons why pregnant women feel stomach discomfort. During pregnancy, stomach discomfort may be a common phenomenon, but persistent stomach discomfort will have a certain impact on your body. Doing more exercise in daily life and proper exercise can relieve such pain. When the situation becomes more serious, you need to go to the hospital for treatment. |
