What is the difference between early pregnancy symptoms and menstruation?

There will be obvious differences between a woman's pregnancy and her normal life. After early pregnancy, she will no longer have menstruation and will have obvious symptoms of nausea and vomiting. Sometimes she will even vomit whatever she eats. In addition, the frequency of urination will increase significantly. This is because the growing uterus presses on the bladder, causing the bladder capacity to decrease. In addition, she is prone to lower abdominal pain and will like to eat sour foods.

First of all, a very obvious feature is that once a woman has premenstrual symptoms, her menstruation will come soon and blood will flow out of the vagina, but after becoming pregnant, her menstruation will no longer come after the early signs of pregnancy appear.

The second obvious sign is that women will not experience nausea and vomiting before menstruation, while nausea and vomiting in early pregnancy can make women very uncomfortable, and they may even vomit everything they eat. If nausea and vomiting occur after many early pregnancy signs appear, it proves that the woman is already pregnant, and it is not a sign before menstruation.

The third obvious difference is that women will urinate more frequently after becoming pregnant. This is because the enlarged uterus will press on the bladder, thereby reducing the bladder capacity, resulting in frequent urination. Premenstrual syndrome will not cause increased urination.

The fourth obvious difference is that many women will experience lower abdominal pain after pregnancy. This is often caused by the enlarged uterus in the early stages of pregnancy pulling on the round ligament of the uterus. There will be no abdominal pain before menstruation. Even if there is abdominal pain, it is often caused by other reasons. In other words, there will be no abdominal pain in premenstrual syndrome. The abdominal pain will be more severe on the first and second days of menstruation, which is called dysmenorrhea.

The fifth difference is the change in appetite. Women who become pregnant prefer to eat sour food and hate greasy food, while women with premenstrual syndrome do not have such changes in appetite.
