Physical differences between premenstrual period and early pregnancy

A woman's body will undergo many changes after becoming pregnant, and the feeling right after becoming pregnant is similar to that of menstruation, so everyone must understand the physical differences between premenstruation and early pregnancy. Before the menstrual period arrives, the breasts will feel swollen and painful, and some people will also experience dysmenorrhea, which can be treated through traditional Chinese medicine. After early pregnancy, there is no feeling of breast pain, but the color of the areola will become darker. In addition, there are also differences in eating habits.

1. Breast

Pregnancy: Breast pain, swelling and itching are physiological phenomena of early pregnancy. In addition, there will be other changes such as darkening of areola color, obvious veins under the breast skin and obvious protrusion of nipples.

Menstrual period: During menstrual period, there are small nodules in the room, which are painful to touch. The pain will be relieved after menstruation, but the swelling and pain will reappear before the next menstruation.

2. Appetite

Pregnancy: Almost all pregnant women in the early stages of pregnancy often feel nauseous and vomiting, especially at the beginning of the day. These symptoms vary from person to person, and some people have very mild symptoms, while others have very severe symptoms. Unless you have severe nausea and vomiting, you don't need to see a doctor. Otherwise, these are normal phenomena in early pregnancy.

Menstrual period: During menstruation, appetite increases and food intake increases. Some people prefer spicy food and eat a lot, feeling satisfied after eating. But some people experience more severe symptoms before menstruation, severe discomfort, and may also have anorexia, but this needs to be compared with your previous pre-menstrual situation.

3. Menstruation

Pregnancy: As long as a woman is of childbearing age, has normal menstruation, and has sexual intercourse for more than two weeks after her normal menstrual period, she may be pregnant.

Menstrual period: There are many reasons why menstruation may not come, it may be due to poor ovarian function, abnormal hormone secretion, busy work, exam stress, etc., all of which can cause late menstruation. Therefore, it is best to get a doctor's diagnosis, which is the safest.
