Uterine contractions during early pregnancy

Uterine contractions can be divided into two types: physiological contractions and physiological contractions. During pregnancy, the stimulation of the nipples and the sexual impulses caused by the nipples will be transmitted to the brain, which reflexively causes the brain to release oxytocin, which can cause uterine contractions. Let's learn about it together below.

Can sexual desire cause uterine contractions?

During pregnancy, the sexual impulses caused by stimulation of the nipples and nipples are transmitted to the brain, which reflexively causes the brain to release oxytocin, which can cause uterine contractions. Therefore, women who are sensitive to nipple stimulation must avoid lifting, tightening, and kneading their breasts during sex during pregnancy to avoid miscarriage and premature birth. Especially women who have experienced miscarriage should pay more attention.

During pregnancy, under the influence of growth hormone, it is not just the uterus that changes, the breasts also change secretly. In the early stages of pregnancy, generally 40 days after amenorrhea, due to the proliferation of mammary ducts and alveoli and the accumulation of fat, the nipples and nipples begin to expand and darken, and the nipples become hard.

Most people will experience breast pain at the beginning of this transformation. After gradually integrating, this feeling is not so obvious. Only a few women experience this discomfort throughout their pregnancy. Some pregnant women experience significant pain during sexual arousal and orgasm. Therefore, during sexual intercourse during pregnancy, excessive breast stimulation should be avoided.

For normal pregnant women, sex life should be controlled as much as possible in the early and late stages of pregnancy; in the middle of pregnancy, from April to July, sex life can be enjoyed, but the movements should be gentle and moderate, and the movements should take care of the pregnant woman and the baby in the belly. If a pregnant woman has habitual miscarriage, she can be caressed more and avoid sexual intercourse.

Pregnant women with vaginitis also need to wait until they recover before having sex to prevent the growth of pathogens and infect the placenta and fetus. For the vast majority of pregnant women, normal breast contact is fine. For example, when taking a bath, you can gently wipe your breasts with a hot and damp cotton towel to help blood flow to the breasts.
