There are blood stains on underwear in early pregnancy

Pregnancy is a relatively long process. Women should pay more attention to their bodies in the early stages of pregnancy to ensure that the fetus in the abdomen can grow up healthily and smoothly. If you find blood stains on your underwear in the early stages of pregnancy, there may be the following reasons. For example, when the fertilized egg implants on the uterine wall, there will be a certain amount of implantation bleeding. In addition, there may be infection or placental problems. If it persists for many days and there is no improvement, further examination is needed.

Vaginal bleeding during pregnancy can be really stressful. Let’s take a look at what bleeding during pregnancy is all about.

In fact, it takes a long time for the fetus to grow from a small size to a big size in the mother's belly. Before the placenta is fully formed, embryo implantation is not as stable as imagined, so various factors can cause miscarriage. If bleeding occurs in early pregnancy, the first thing to consider is whether it is a threatened miscarriage. Because when miscarriage occurs, the embryo and the uterine wall will separate to varying degrees. At this time, if the blood vessels on the separation surface rupture, bleeding will occur.

1. Implantation bleeding. If you have just become pregnant, when the fertilized egg implants on the wall of the woman's uterus, you may have slight vaginal bleeding in the next 1-2 days, but at this stage it is difficult to know whether the vaginal bleeding is caused by pregnancy.

2. Miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy. Light bleeding or vaginal bleeding may be a sign of miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy, especially if it is accompanied by abdominal pain or cramping.

3. Infection. A small amount of vaginal bleeding may also be caused by vaginal infection or sexually transmitted infection, which can cause the vagina and cervix to become infected and inflamed. The inflamed tissue will cause a small amount of bleeding after a cervical smear test, vaginal examination or sexual intercourse.

4. Placental problems or premature birth. If a pregnant woman experiences vaginal bleeding or a small amount of bleeding during the second or third trimester, it may be a sign of a more serious condition. Such as placenta previa, placental abruption (the placenta separates from the uterine wall before the baby is delivered), late miscarriage (before 13 to 28 weeks of pregnancy), or premature birth (before 28 to 37 weeks of pregnancy).
