If there is a possibility of pregnancy, then any woman wants to know about her as early as possible. Whether a pregnancy is desired or not, early diagnosis can help a woman choose her next course of action. Early pregnancy symptoms will help uncover the mystery of a new life. After all, even before the delay, a woman can find out about pregnancy, thanks to some changes in her own body.
Pregnancy symptoms. The reasons for their occurrence
As a rule, conception occurs one day after ovulation. And immediately after fertilization, global changes begin in a woman's body. The first symptom of an incipient pregnancy is an increase in the hormone progesterone. Thanks to him, preparations for the implantation of a fertilized egg begin. If the ovum is fixed in the endometrium, then the woman becomes pregnant. Usually, from the moment of conception to implantation, it takes from 7 to 12 days. Therefore, there should be no symptoms of pregnancy before this period.
Pregnancy symptoms before delay
As mentioned earlier, progesterone is a pregnancy hormone. And it is thanks to its accumulation in the woman's body that the first symptoms of pregnancy appear. Until your period is delayed, hCG tests are unlikely to show pregnancy. But knowing herself, a woman can easily notice changes in her body.
The main symptoms of pregnancy before the delay of menstruation
Feeling tired and sleepy, low blood pressure. The same hormone progesterone is to blame for this. One of its properties is vasodilation, which leads to these symptoms.
Headaches. Very often, already pregnant women take this symptom as a common sign of overwork at work. The problem is that a woman, not knowing about her situation, can take painkillers that are contraindicated for pregnant women.
Breast enlargement - this symptom of pregnancy is often confused by women with classic PMS. In addition to enlargement, women also complain of increased sensitivity of the mammary glands.
Profuse discharge. Another symptom of pregnancy is the presence of leucorrhoea. The glands of the cervix and vagina begin to work harder due to the increased blood flow to the uterus. But it is important to pay attention to the nature of the discharge so as not to be confused with symptoms of inflammation or infection. In a healthy body, the discharge will be whitish or transparent, viscous, without any odor. They shouldn't be burning or itching.
Frequent urination. This symptom is associated with an increase in blood circulation in the pelvic organs. Because of what receptors are irritated and there is a desire to go to the toilet.
If a woman breaks her diet, constipation may occur. This problem can be found in pregnant women before the delay. With an increase in the amount of progesterone, rare stools may be noted.
Toxicosis or nausea in pregnant women can occur at any time. It does not always appear exclusively in the morning. Feeling unwell can occur at any time of the day. Also, a pregnant woman's sense of smell may be aggravated. Some odors can be very disgusting. A pregnant woman's taste preferences can change dramatically. As a result, loss of appetite can be another symptom of pregnancy.
