Bleeding with blood clots during pregnancy

Pregnancy is a very important thing for women. It not only means that the woman is about to bring a new life into the world, but also that she is about to become a mother. However, pregnancy not only causes changes in women's psychology, but also causes a series of conditions in their bodies. Some pregnant women experience bleeding and blood clots during pregnancy. So what should they do if they have bleeding and blood clots during pregnancy?

1. Bleeding during pregnancy

Bleeding in early pregnancy is a symptom of pregnancy. There are many causes: fetal chromosomal abnormalities, maternal hormone disorders, congenital uterine developmental abnormalities or acquired defects, immune system problems, viral infections, pregnant women suffering from chronic diseases (such as heart disease, kidney disease and blood diseases), overwork, excessive stress, too intense sexual life, external impact, environmental pollution, improper use of medication, smoking, drinking, excessive caffeine intake or other foods that promote uterine contractions, etc.

2. What should I do if there is bleeding and blood clots during pregnancy?

1. Blood clots are generally caused by blood stasis. You can take some blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing medicines, such as Cihang Pills, Shaofu Zhuyu Pills, and Yueyueshu Granules! Those who have blood clots during menstruation should pay attention to menstrual protection, prevent cold, do not eat raw or cold food, do not overwork, maintain a happy mood, combine work and rest, and actively participate in physical exercise.

2. It is recommended to rest in bed, avoid stimulation, abstain from sexual intercourse, eat more easily digestible food, use less abdominal pressure, and have regular check-ups.

Once pregnancy bleeding occurs, it should be taken seriously. It is not a minor problem. If you bleed during pregnancy and blood clots appear, for the sake of the baby in your belly and for safety reasons, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for a check-up, or consult a doctor online to solve this problem. You cannot be careless when you are pregnant and you must be careful.

Around 3 months of pregnancy, the placenta has just been formed. A normal placenta is located above the uterine cavity, while a placenta previa is located slightly lower, near the cervical opening. Once the uterus contracts, bleeding may occur.

Main symptoms: The amount and color of bleeding are not easy to determine because it is related to the early or late diagnosis. If the bleeding occurs repeatedly, it needs to be treated under the guidance of a doctor.

Pregnancy precautions

1. Don’t take medicine randomly for colds

Indomethacin is a fever-reducing drug that is contraindicated for pregnant women, and aspirin should not be used after 32 weeks of pregnancy. Antibiotics: If there is no clear evidence of bacterial infection in pregnant women with colds, such as tonsillitis, high blood pressure, coughing up yellow sputum, thick runny nose, etc., antibiotics are not needed. Expectorants and cough suppressants are generally safe, but cough suppressants containing iodine preparations should not be used by pregnant women.

2. What to do if a pregnant woman has diarrhea

Diarrhea in pregnant women may lead to miscarriage or premature birth. First of all, do not eat for the time being, and drink adequate fluids to replenish the water and electrolytes lost due to diarrhea, especially potassium ions, and also replenish the lost calories. You can prepare some liquid and easily digestible porridge for pregnant women. If the condition is not very serious, it is enough to have an empty stomach. While replenishing fluids, closely observe the fetal condition and whether there are any signs of miscarriage or premature birth.

If the fetus is in an abnormal condition, you should go to the hospital immediately and not be careless.

3. Correct sleeping position during pregnancy

In the early stages of pregnancy (1 to 3 months), pregnant women can sleep in any position they like, mainly in a comfortable position, such as lying on their back or on their side. Bad sleeping positions such as sleeping on your stomach or sleeping with your arms around something should be changed.

During the second trimester of pregnancy (4 to 7 months), you should pay attention to protecting your abdomen and avoid direct external force. If a pregnant woman has too much amniotic fluid or is pregnant with twins, she should sleep in a side-lying position, which can make her more comfortable. If a pregnant woman feels heavy in her lower limbs, she can lie on her back and slightly raise her lower limbs with a soft pillow.
