Some women think that a month's at the beginning of pregnancy is quite normal. But why they have such an opinion, it is not known. After all, menstruation during pregnancy is one of the main causes of miscarriage. This phenomenon occurs on a hormonal background. That is, if fertilization did not take place, then at the end of the menstrual cycle, the level of hormones falls, resulting in exfoliation of the endometrium of the uterus. This causes bleeding. The same happens if the menstruation starts with an early pregnancy, and this is a big threat of its interruption.
What are the dangers of menstruation in the early stages of pregnancy?
When a woman in the first weeks of pregnancy appears sparse monthly, this may indicate a frozen egg, which stopped developing. Over time, she dies, but a miscarriage can not happen immediately. Therefore, usually doctors do the cleaning of the uterus and save the woman from a dead embryo.
Also, bleeding can appear with an ectopic pregnancy. In this case, a woman may not know about her. The pregnant woman will think that this is a period in the early stages, and at this time the body is already developing a pathological process that can lead to rupture of the fallopian tube. In this case, either surgery or medication is required (but in rare cases). And if the ectopic pregnancy has ceased to develop, then this phenomenon requires observation.
It is possible that menstruation in the first month of pregnancy and erosion of the cervix . Of course, it will not be quite a month, but rather a bloody "daub". But do not be upset, because even during pregnancy, erosion can be treated. And very often it happens that against the background of hormonal changes, it disappears without any treatment.
It is also necessary to know that during pregnancy, the walls of the vagina become sensitive to mechanical influences, so bloody vaginal discharge can appear after douching or coarse sexual intercourse.
Monthly at week 4 of pregnancy
Sometimes, menses during pregnancy can indicate the attachment of the embryo to the uterine wall. And if the blood discharge appeared not at the first, but at 4 weeks of pregnancy, then do not panic immediately. This is considered normal, but you still need to consult a doctor for insurance, just in case.
