Why do I have my period while I am pregnant?

The phenomenon of menstruation is mainly a physical phenomenon that indicates that women have fertility. Once the first menstruation comes, menstruation will basically occur every month thereafter. If a woman is pregnant, she will not have menstruation. This is because there is a gestational sac inside the female's uterus, so the endometrium will not produce periodic shedding. But some women find that they are pregnant, but why do they still have menstruation in their lower body?

1. Reasons for menstruation after pregnancy

1. Signs of miscarriage

If a woman experiences vaginal bleeding after becoming pregnant, she must not take it lightly, as there may be a problem with the fetus, especially in the third month. If vaginal bleeding occurs, it is not called menstruation, but miscarriage. At this time, an abortion should be performed quickly to ensure the safety of the adult.

2. Bleeding after normal pregnancy

Sometimes, many women will experience this situation, that is, a small amount of blood may flow out of the vagina after pregnancy. This will make some new mothers feel very panic, thinking that it is menstruation, but this is vaginal bleeding in the early pregnancy, not real menstruation. It may be a problem with the cervix, or it may be a small amount of blood outflow caused by the implantation of the fertilized egg after the woman becomes pregnant. If there is no problem with the B-ultrasound, you don't need to worry too much.

3. Low progesterone

Some women will experience low progesterone levels after pregnancy, which can cause vaginal bleeding. If this happens, you must be extra careful, go to the hospital for a check-up, and take progesterone every day.

2. Characteristics of false menstruation after pregnancy

When a woman becomes pregnant, we can call this situation "pregnancy menstruation". Its characteristics are very little bleeding, very light color, and very short duration, usually one to two days. It is different from normal menstruation before, because it is not real menstruation, so it will give people a false impression that it is menstrual disorder. This phenomenon occurs in the initial period of pregnancy.
