After pregnancy, everyone's symptoms during pregnancy may vary due to their different physical conditions. Many pregnant women may experience increased drooling, which can be confusing for many. So, let's take a look at why pregnant women drool a lot?
Pregnant women drool excessively, which is caused by stage changes in the endocrine system. Pregnant women need to supplement their bodies with more nutrients and water to ensure the normal development of the fetus during pregnancy, so they need to eat high calorie and high protein foods. To ensure that the food consumed is fully digested and absorbed, pregnant women during pregnancy have a more vigorous metabolism than usual. To ensure smooth digestion of food, pregnant women's endocrine function changes, promoting increased secretion of digestive glands. The glands in the oral cavity that secrete saliva can also be affected by endocrine changes, leading to an increase in saliva secretion for better absorption.
A large amount of diet and frequent vomiting during pregnancy can stimulate saliva secretion. At this time, pregnant women should pay attention to eating more easily digestible foods to improve the phenomenon of excessive salivation. Some pregnant women may feel particularly nervous after pregnancy, which can worsen pregnancy symptoms such as increased salivation. It is important to maintain a happy mood and shift attention through activities or exercise to avoid drooling. Ways to relieve stress: adjust your mindset, pay attention to rest, drink plenty of water, eat more fruits rich in vitamin C, such as oranges, cherries, strawberries, etc., and eat more high-quality protein, such as milk, fish, and eggs; Exercise appropriately, such as taking a walk to enhance the body's resistance, and drink some plain water after meals.
