What causes nosebleeds in pregnant women in the morning?

After a woman becomes pregnant, her body is prone to various abnormal conditions. Since the body of a pregnant woman is very important, any accident may affect the child, so nosebleeds in the morning make family members very worried. So, what is the reason for nosebleeds in pregnant women in the morning? Let’s take a closer look at it below.

1. After pregnancy, a large amount of progesterone will be secreted in the pregnant body, causing blood vessels to dilate and become congested. At the same time, the blood volume of pregnant women is higher than that of non-pregnant women, and the human nasal mucosa is rich in blood vessels and the blood vessel walls are relatively thin, so it is easy to rupture and cause bleeding. Especially when the human body changes its body position or blows its nose after a night's sleep, it is more likely to cause nosebleeds.

2. Some pregnant women are more prone to nosebleeds because their menstruation does not come during pregnancy, so some people will compensate by bleeding through the nasal mucosa. It is called "compensatory menstruation". This is caused by personal constitution. As long as the amount of bleeding is not too much, it is harmless to the body.

3. Lack of vitamin K. If pregnant women do not absorb enough vitamin K, the level of prothrombin in the blood will be reduced, which can easily cause coagulation disorders, not only nose bleeding but also congenital disorders in the fetus. Not only nose bleeding but also congenital visual and intellectual development disorders in the fetus. You should eat more foods rich in vitamin K, such as cauliflower, cabbage, spinach, lettuce, alfalfa, sauerkraut, etc.

The above is an introduction to the causes of nosebleeds in pregnant women in the morning. I hope it will be helpful to their families. There are many factors that cause nosebleeds in women. When this happens, pregnant women must pay enough attention to it. It is best to go to a regular hospital for examination and then determine effective methods for treatment to avoid more serious consequences.
