Dull abdominal pain in early pregnancy

The phenomenon of dull pain in the lower abdomen in the early stages of pregnancy is also encountered by many pregnant women. There are many reasons for the pain in the lower abdomen in early pregnancy. It may be a normal phenomenon or a pathological reaction. When threatened miscarriage occurs, it can easily lead to dull pain in the lower abdomen. Pregnant women can do a detailed examination to improve it.

What is the reason for dull pain in the lower abdomen during early pregnancy?

The first three months of pregnancy are the early stages of pregnancy. Dull abdominal pain may be a normal reaction in early pregnancy, or it may be pathological. Therefore, it is better for pregnant women to understand the cause of abdominal pain so that they can better prevent abdominal pain. If you find dull abdominal pain in the early stages of pregnancy, you can also get timely treatment.

There are three main reasons for the dull pain in the abdomen during early pregnancy:

1. Threatened abortion: The main clinical manifestation is lower abdominal pain in the early stages of pregnancy. If you find that you have dull abdominal pain and bleeding in the early stages of pregnancy, you must be alert.

2. Ectopic pregnancy: The place where the embryo implants and develops is not in the normal uterus, but outside the uterus, such as the fallopian tube, ovary, abdominal cavity, etc. In addition to being unable to grow healthily due to its incorrect developmental position, this type of embryo will also cause dull pain in the pregnant woman's lower abdomen, which requires active management and treatment.

3. Uterine leiomyoma: If a pregnant woman has uterine leiomyoma, it may grow during pregnancy and have a great impact on the pregnancy. This type of pain usually comes suddenly, and the pain point is fixed, which is local pain. Because the uterus has abundant blood flow during pregnancy, it is not appropriate to remove uterine leiomyoma during this period. The pain caused by fibroid necrosis can only be controlled with supportive therapy with analgesics during pregnancy. Uterine leiomyoma is difficult to treat, so it is best to go to a regular hospital for treatment.
