Will a girl have her period when she is pregnant?

There are many changes in women after they become pregnant. The most obvious change is that they no longer have menstruation. In fact, many women find that they may be pregnant, and they use the absence of menstruation as a reference standard. So they definitely do not have menstruation during pregnancy. However, there may be vaginal bleeding during pregnancy, which is definitely not menstruation, and other factors need to be considered.

Will I still have my period after I get pregnant?

Generally speaking, the first sign that a woman is pregnant is amenorrhea. Normally, women will no longer have menstruation after becoming pregnant. A married or sexually active woman with a normal menstrual cycle should consider the possibility of pregnancy if her menstruation is delayed, but this is not absolute. A small number of women still experience vaginal bleeding on the date of their next menstrual period after becoming pregnant. This type of menstruation after pregnancy is called "pregnancy menstruation." Its characteristics are less bleeding, lighter color, shorter duration, and it is different from any previous menstruation. In fact, this is not true menstruation. This phenomenon usually occurs within 3 months of pregnancy and usually only occurs once. Some pregnant women also experience it 2 to 3 times.

Why do I still have my period after I get pregnant?

1. Because the fertilized egg implantation is not stable, the placenta has not been formed, and the menstrual period is approaching or has arrived, a mature egg will still be discharged and then discharged from the body along with the shedding of the endometrium, causing a small number of pregnant women to think they are menstruating.

2. Due to individual differences and other reasons, some women's ovaries secrete relatively low levels of sex hormones, especially progesterone, after pregnancy, causing a small part of the endometrium to continue to shed. Therefore, these women will still have menstruation after pregnancy, but the amount of menstruation will be much less than normal. It is not until three months into pregnancy that the placenta is formed and the estrogen and progesterone levels in the female body are maintained at a relatively high level. At this time, the endometrium no longer sheds and menstruation no longer occurs.

What should I do if I have vaginal bleeding after pregnancy?

1. During early pregnancy, if there is vaginal bleeding, it may be caused by unstable implantation of the fertilized egg and individual differences, so it is a false alarm. But it should be noted that vaginal bleeding may also indicate abnormal conditions such as threatened abortion or ectopic pregnancy.

2. Women with threatened miscarriage and ectopic pregnancy may also experience vaginal bleeding in the early stages of pregnancy, which can easily be mistaken for normal menstruation. However, vaginal bleeding in women with threatened abortion or ectopic pregnancy is usually unrelated to the menstrual cycle, and the bleeding is often continuous and constant. Patients are also often accompanied by symptoms such as abdominal pain and lower abdominal distension.

3. If women of childbearing age experience the above-mentioned vaginal bleeding, they must seek medical attention as soon as possible, otherwise the child may miscarry and the pregnant woman may be at risk of death from heavy bleeding.
