What happens to uterine contractions during early pregnancy1

  In the early stages of pregnancy, embryos are sensitive and fragile. The uterus is the place where embryos rely on for survival. If the uterus contracts, the embryo cannot grow safely in the uterus, which can easily lead to threatened miscarriage. Therefore, pregnant women who experience uterine contractions, irregular bleeding, and abdominal pain need to seek medical attention promptly to avoid losing the fetus.

  However, in the early stages of pregnancy, female uterine contractions do not cause any discomfort and do not last long. They are physiological and painless contractions, which are harmless to the embryo and do not require treatment for pregnant women. Pregnant women can take corresponding measures based on their physical sensations and symptoms.

  In the early stages of pregnancy, if there are symptoms of threatened miscarriage, it is necessary to take medication to protect the fetus. Besides taking medication, pregnant women need to rest in bed and try to avoid getting out of bed and walking around as much as possible. Everything should be taken care of. Strictly prohibit sexual activity, otherwise it will exacerbate threatened miscarriage. Remember to eat healthy, nutritious, and light foods. Follow the doctor's instructions to return to the hospital on time for a follow-up examination to understand the effectiveness of protecting the fetus.
