Monthly during pregnancy

With the onset of pregnancy, the woman's life changes, and the young mother understands that the development of her fetus largely depends on her health and behavior. Therefore, waking up in the morning, the expectant mother should not jump out of bed and run headlong to work or other business, she should listen to her body. Over time, she learns to understand the signals of her body, and will know how it is better to do this or that action, what to eat, where to go, etc.

The future mother should control, like her body temperature, and reaction to various smells and food, and vaginal discharge. It happens that a woman watches spotting from the vagina during menstruation even during pregnancy. Then the question arises: why do menstrual periods occur during pregnancy? And whether there are monthly during pregnancy in general, it can something another? After all, it is often assumed that the main symptom of pregnancy is a delay in menstruation. However, this is not always the case. The likelihood of a monthly appearance during pregnancy exists, because some pregnant women find out about their pregnancy already at a later date when they see other signs of pregnancy during menstruation.

Girls often ask themselves, what is the probability of having a period during pregnancy? And is it worth it to do a second pregnancy test if it's a monthly test?

If a woman has found out that her vagina is bleeding, regardless of the period of pregnancy, you need to see a doctor. You do not need to listen to girlfriends who say that monthly during pregnancy is normal. Do not endanger the life of an unborn baby, because doctors claim that regardless of the period of pregnancy, and especially in the first 12 weeks, spotting from the vagina is a sign of a possible threat of losing a baby. In order to determine why menstruation during pregnancy is a danger, we will consider the stages of conception.

The beginning of the fertilization of the egg takes place in the fallopian tube, then the egg moves to the uterine cavity where the implantation process takes place. In that place of the ovary, where the egg was earlier, after its release a "yellow body" is formed, which is the main supplier of progesterone. Progesterone is a hormone on which the good course of pregnancy in the first trimester depends. Most often, it is in the first trimester that women develop spotting during the period of the supposed menstrual period. Critical gestation: 4-5 weeks, 8-9 weeks, 12-13 weeks.v

Bloody discharge in a woman during pregnancy suggests that there is a threat to the fetus. This is due to the detachment of the fetal egg. The fertilized egg partially or completely exfoliates from the uterine wall. The reasons for this turn of events can be the following factors:

1. The amount of progesterone produced is inadequate. In the case of a malfunctioning "yellow body" in the body of a pregnant woman receives insufficient amount of progesterone, which is necessary to ensure a normal course of pregnancy. Such disorders are eliminated by using drugs that are analogues of progesterone.
2. The appearance of hyperandrogenia. Androgen is a male sex hormone, if it is in excess in the body of a pregnant woman, it can cause detachment of the fetal egg. This violation can also be cured with special medications.
3. The place of attachment of the ovule has an unfavorable location. It can be located in the place of the formed myomatous node or in the background of the focus of endometriosis. In such a place, the egg is poorly supplied with blood, which can cause rejection of the fetal egg.
4. Termination of pregnancy, genetic changes or the appearance of fetal malformations can contribute to the termination of pregnancy. These changes can be accompanied by spotting from the vagina. Treat such disorders under the supervision of a doctor who prescribes an individual course of treatment.
5. Monthly during ectopic pregnancy. A woman's sense of smell changes, there is toxicosis, a pregnancy test gives a positive result, all the signs of a normal pregnancy, except for the appearance of bloody discharge. In this case it is necessary to undergo a medical examination, which can reveal an ectopic pregnancy.

These are the most serious problems associated with spotting during pregnancy, they should not be confused with menstruation.

But there are also regular ones during pregnancy. "What are the monthly ones during pregnancy?" You ask. Some women may have copious periods during pregnancy, and maybe vice versa - weak ones. In such a situation, there is no threat of rejection of the fetal egg, it remains in its place. Just happens ordinary menstruation or the process of renewing the upper layer of the uterus - the endometrium. The surface layer of the endometrium separates under the action of hormones, this process of separation and causes spotting from the vagina. In this case, there is no threat to the fetal egg, but this does not mean that you can completely ignore what is happening. In any case, bloody discharge, regardless of the degree of copiousness, is the signal that the body gives you, so that you take the necessary measures. Menstrual discharge can also serve as a sign of a lack of hormones in the body of a pregnant woman, and so that they do not become more abundant, treatment is required.
