Probably, there is hardly a woman whowould be able to say that during pregnancy she was not worried. Although it is considered that pregnancy is not a disease, nevertheless, nature is arranged so that during this period there are significant changes in the body, and they are often not too comfortable for the future mother.
Часто дают о себе знать боли в промежности при pregnancy, and immediately the question arises - is this normal? Is there any reason for concern or better, as they say, "endure"? Let's try to understand why they even arise and how to behave in such situations.
Важно обращать внимание не только на сами боли в perineum in pregnancy, but how often and for how long they occur. This will help to pinpoint the causes of painful sensations.
Note if they occur in the periodafter 35 weeks or a little later, this is a signal that the body is preparing for early delivery. And they really are just around the corner, since the usual gestation period is between 38 and 42 weeks.
Perineal pain during pregnancy means thatpelvic bones begin to move apart under the weight of the fetus, whose weight is already about 3 kilograms, and sometimes more! The bones of the pelvis are moving apart, and the ligaments do not stretch so quickly and do not have time for them, and therefore there is a feeling of discomfort.
It happens that the fetus squeezes some nerve, often sciatic. This can be not only the cause of pain in the perineum, but also in the tailbone, and even in the back.
There are more serious reasons.Pain in the perineum during pregnancy can mean varicose veins of the perineum or other diseases. After the examination, the doctor prescribes the appropriate treatment.
If the pain is caused by naturalIf pregnancy is caused by pressure on the ligaments from the growing fetus, then no medical intervention is required in such cases. Of course, this is unpleasant and very painful, but you will have to endure and relieve pain, for example, with a special massage for pregnant women or, say, going to the pool, which is very beneficial not only for general well-being, but also relieves muscle tension.
But you need to be more attentive to yournot to strive to “endure” at any cost. It happens that the tingling in the perineum during pregnancy, turning into a slight pain, is a symptom of the threat of miscarriage in those cases if it occurs in the early stages. Or it may be a signal for preterm labor, at later periods after 20 weeks.
Pay attention to the selection.If they have acquired a brown or yellowish shade, or pink, this means that they contain blood clots. In this case, you should immediately consult a doctor.
Most often, women describe this condition as lumbago in the perineum. During pregnancy, there are grandiose changes in the body, so if you have doubts, then you should not pull.
By the way, this state can persist andsome time after pregnancy, and not only during it. All this is due to changes in the body when the pelvic bones converge back after childbirth, which also causes a not very pleasant sensation. A uterine contraction also occurs, and the woman feels it. But these manifestations in the postpartum stage are not as strong as during pregnancy. If they do not pass within the first month after delivery, then it is worth guard. Especially if during the childbirth there were tears and the woman was stitched.
In any case, only your attending physician will determine the exact cause. Trust the professionals, do not tolerate and do not try to make a diagnosis yourself.
