Many women, due to a lack of life experience, experience abnormal physical manifestations after sexual activity, often unable to distinguish whether it is early pregnancy or menstruation. Sometimes, when they become pregnant, they may be treated as menstruation, which can easily cause certain harm to the body. How to determine early pregnancy and menstruation?
Normally, women do not experience menstruation again after pregnancy. However, a small number of women may experience slight vaginal bleeding during early pregnancy when the fertilized egg implants. This type of bleeding is relatively small and lasts for a short period of time, usually only one or two days. Women can judge early pregnancy and menstruation based on the amount and duration of bleeding.
In addition, women can also check whether their menstrual period has been delayed. Generally, if their menstrual period is delayed for more than 7 days and they have had sexual activity recently, it is likely to be caused by early pregnancy. Women can use pregnancy test sticks or early pregnancy test strips to test for pregnancy, or go to the hospital for a blood routine examination to test for changes in blood HCG levels, in order to determine if they are pregnant.
If pregnancy is ruled out through examination and menstruation persists, other chronic inflammatory diseases or endocrine disorders causing menstrual disorders should be considered. Women also need to cooperate with doctors for comprehensive gynecological examinations to identify the specific causes of menstrual abnormalities, and then cooperate with doctors for treatment and adjustment to prevent menstrual abnormalities from causing other complications and avoid adverse effects on their fertility.
