I thought it was my period but turned out to be pregnant

I believe that many women in life check whether they are pregnant through their monthly menstruation. This method is unscientific in medicine. Every woman's reaction to pregnancy is not exactly the same. Due to personal constitution and other reasons, most women think they are having their period after having normal sex, but after going to the hospital for a check-up they find out they are pregnant. Why do I still have my period after I get pregnant?

1. I thought it was my period but turned out to be pregnant

This situation should be considered as threatened miscarriage after pregnancy, which leads to continuous bleeding. Since the bleeding time is relatively long and the current development of the gestational sac is not ideal, it is not recommended to continue the pregnancy in this situation. Therefore, in your current situation, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible for a physical examination. If your basic condition is good, it is recommended to have a uterine curettage as soon as possible. If you are pregnant and bleeding occurs, it is best to stay in bed and rest, and then take progesterone to protect the fetus, the effect is very good.

2. Why do I still have my period when I am pregnant?

1. Because the fertilized egg implantation is not stable, the placenta has not been formed, and the menstrual period is approaching or has arrived, a mature egg will still be discharged and then discharged from the body along with the shedding of the endometrium, causing a small number of pregnant women to think they are menstruating.

2. Due to individual differences and other reasons, some women's ovaries secrete relatively low levels of sex hormones, especially progesterone, after pregnancy, causing a small part of the endometrium to continue to shed. Therefore, these women will still have menstruation after pregnancy, but the amount of menstruation will be much less than normal. It is not until three months into pregnancy that the placenta is formed and the estrogen and progesterone levels in the female body are maintained at a relatively high level. At this time, the endometrium no longer sheds and menstruation no longer occurs.

The above are the reasons for menstruation during pregnancy. A small number of pregnant women still have menstruation. It is mainly caused by changes in hormones in the body. Generally, it will disappear after a period of pregnancy. You must pay attention to good care during this period. There will be general reactions such as vomiting, nausea, etc. Some will also have drowsiness and loss of appetite. Some people mistake ovulation behavior for menstruation.

3. What should I do if I see blood during pregnancy?

The first thing of course is to see a doctor in time. If the bleeding is minor, the fetus is not yet mature, and both the mother and the fetus are not affected, expectant management can be adopted, including resting in bed and taking pregnancy-preserving drugs. However, the drugs must be taken after examination and with the doctor's orders. It is not too late to deliver the baby when the pregnancy is full term. If it is a sign of miscarriage, family members should also make preparations early. Bleeding in the late pregnancy is a physiological phenomenon, which indicates that pregnant women should prepare to go to the hospital for delivery. But don't be too anxious. Delivery does not occur immediately after the onset of bleeding. Generally, delivery will occur 1-2 days after the onset of bleeding. Some pregnant mothers even have to wait 4-5 days.

Because of different physical conditions, each pregnant woman's reactions during pregnancy are different, but if a dangerous situation occurs, you should see a doctor immediately, and don't take medicines at will. After all, the mother is not only burdened with her own body at this time, but the baby's safety also depends on the mother. Therefore, expectant mothers should pay more attention to their own physical condition, and family members should also pay attention to the mother's dangerous symptoms such as spotting and abdominal pain. Once they occur, you must seek medical attention immediately.
