How to tell if you are pregnant

How to judge whether you are pregnant? Normally, women of childbearing age have the possibility of pregnancy as long as they have sexual intercourse. Generally speaking, if a woman is pregnant, delayed menstruation is the first symptom to be discovered. In addition, feeling tired, sleepy, or breast tenderness in early pregnancy is mostly normal. If a woman of childbearing age has had sexual intercourse before and her period is delayed for more than a week, she should consider whether she is pregnant. There are many ways to determine whether you are pregnant. Using early pregnancy test strips to detect early pregnancy is a common practice. In order to accurately understand whether you are pregnant, you should go to the hospital for a blood HCG test. It is normal to experience nausea during pregnancy.

Because in the early stages of pregnancy, the embryo's hairy tissue metabolizes a growth hormone that is closely related to vomiting. Vomiting during pregnancy often occurs in the morning, usually starting one month after the menstrual period ends, and lasts for nearly two months before gradually decreasing. People with mild symptoms only feel a little nauseous in the morning and don't want to eat anything; those with more severe symptoms will start feeling uncomfortable in the morning and last all day. Under the action of estrogen and luteinizing hormone in the uterus and ovaries, there will always be breast pain during pregnancy, including nipple tenderness and darker areola color, which are all normal. Part of the reason is that the breasts are swollen and painful, but you are wearing original size underwear, so just be careful to reduce contact. In addition, you should understand whether you feel upset or depressed, because emotional obstruction will cause blood stasis in the liver meridian. The breast happens to be the base of the liver meridian. Qi stagnation and blood stasis will also cause breast pain.
