In the process of female pregnancy, there are many stages, such as early, mid, and late pregnancy. People often hear the term early pregnancy, which refers to the earliest stage of pregnancy. However, many people do not know how many weeks of pregnancy early pregnancy refers to. Let's take a look at how many weeks of pregnancy is considered early pregnancy.
In the first five weeks of a woman's pregnancy, it is called early pregnancy. At this point, the fertilized egg has just implanted in the uterus and is still in the primary stage of the embryo. Usually, during B-ultrasound examination, the gestational sac can only be seen around five weeks of pregnancy, and it cannot be detected before that.
In the early stages of female pregnancy, the connection between the embryo and the uterus is not very strong. If the pregnant woman is not careful, it can easily lead to miscarriage. Therefore, during this period, it is absolutely forbidden to have sexual intercourse, and excessive fatigue should be avoided. More bed rest should be taken, which is beneficial for protecting the fetus.
Some women may experience ectopic pregnancy, but it is difficult to detect during early pregnancy. This is because the gestational sac is still too small, and even with an ultrasound examination, it cannot be found. So if you want to check for ectopic pregnancy, you should choose to have an ultrasound at 5-6 weeks of pregnancy. If no gestational sac is found in the female uterus, it can be confirmed that an ectopic pregnancy has occurred, and immediate treatment measures should be taken.
