If a woman experiences lower abdominal pain but not during her menstrual period, it may be a reaction to pregnancy. A woman may experience early symptoms of pregnancy 14 days after having sex, but she will not have her period. At the same time, taking birth control pills and diet pills will also affect her normal menstrual cycle. In addition, too much stress in life and work can also be a major factor affecting the arrival of menstruation. Women should do relevant preventive work.

Does lower abdominal pain in early pregnancy feel the same as menstrual cramps?

The feeling of lower abdominal pain in early pregnancy is different from dysmenorrhea. In the early stages of pregnancy, some pregnant women experience lower abdominal pain and the urge to defecate, which is a normal physiological phenomenon and generally does not affect their normal life. When the dysmenorrhea is not severe, the woman will feel a pain in the navel (not the feeling of diarrhea). When the dysmenorrhea is severe, the woman will be unable to walk and will have to hold her stomach and bend over.

Abdominal pain in pregnant women is caused by a variety of situations, which can be divided into physiological and pathological conditions. Physiological abdominal pain is mostly dull pain caused by the enlargement of the uterus and the involvement of the uterine ligaments, so there is no need to worry too much. What we need to pay attention to is pathological pain. Pathological abdominal pain may be caused by the following reasons: ectopic pregnancy, threatened abortion, uterine fibroids or ovarian tumors. Pathological lower abdominal pain includes the following aspects: paroxysmal lower abdominal pain or low back pain or pelvic pain in the first few months of pregnancy; severe unilateral lower abdominal pain accompanied by vaginal bleeding or fainting; accompanied by vaginal punctate bleeding or a noticeable feeling of abdominal heaviness.

There are seven major symptoms in early pregnancy, namely amenorrhea, fatigue, frequent trips to the bathroom, nausea, morning sickness, moodiness and high body temperature. During pregnancy, you should pay attention to rest, maintain a good attitude, and avoid overwork. If you experience discomfort in the early stages of pregnancy, especially lower abdominal pain, you should first consider the complications of pregnancy reactions. If severe pain occurs, you must seek medical attention promptly to avoid delaying the condition.
