What to do if you have vaginal pain during late pregnancy

I believe that pregnant women or female friends who have given birth can all understand that there will be varying degrees of pain in the genitals in the late pregnancy, especially when lying down and getting up, the pain is more obvious. So what should you do if you have genital pain in the late pregnancy? First of all, everyone should know that genital pain at this time is pubic pain in most cases. It is important to pay attention to proper exercise and keep a good mood.

Generally, genital pain occurs in the middle and late stages of pregnancy. It is because the fetus gradually grows and the uterus presses on various parts of the body, which makes the blood circulation in the lower body poor, causing fatigue in the lower body, pain in the back and lumbar muscles, and the pubic bone is stretched to varying degrees in preparation for delivery. Some pregnant women even feel perineum pain. This situation is generally not abnormal. Maintaining a happy mood, exercising moderately, and regular prenatal check-ups are the most important for you and your baby.

Pubic pain is the pain caused by pubic bone separation caused by hormones. It is the body's way of preparing for childbirth so that the baby can be delivered smoothly. It is a normal phenomenon and there is nothing wrong with it. You should pay attention to getting more rest, avoid standing or sitting for long periods of time, and change your posture appropriately. When you sleep at night, you can find a pillow or something like that to clamp between your legs, and put a cushion under your buttocks. It doesn't need to be too high, just one to two centimeters thick. This will make sleeping more comfortable. Everything will get better naturally after delivery.

The enlargement of the uterus after pregnancy may lead to separation of the pubic symphysis, which is the bone above the vulva. There are two pubic bones there, which may separate, so some people may feel pain and even have difficulty walking. This condition will gradually recover after delivery. This generally does not affect vaginal delivery.

There are four factors that affect vaginal delivery: the size of the pregnant woman's pelvis, the position of the fetus, the size of the fetus, and the pregnant woman's emotions during delivery. Any abnormality in any of these factors can lead to dystocia. For example, due to pain after delivery, some pregnant women lose confidence in natural childbirth, which ultimately leads to dystocia. Get enough rest and build confidence in vaginal childbirth. Calcium supplementation is recommended. Have regular prenatal checkups, pay attention to fetal movements, and avoid sexual intercourse after 28 weeks of pregnancy to avoid premature birth.

After understanding what to do if you have pubic pain in the late pregnancy, pregnant women should not worry too much. Pubic pain is indeed uncomfortable, and in severe cases it can affect normal walking. At this time, you still need to consult a doctor as soon as possible. With their guidance and help, it is necessary to take certain measures to relieve the pain.
