Most women have a better understanding of natural abortion, but not much knowledge about biochemical pregnancy, so they are not aware of the difference between biochemical pregnancy and natural abortion. Today, the editor will explain the difference between biochemical pregnancy and spontaneous abortion.
To understand the difference between biochemical pregnancy and spontaneous abortion, one must first understand what biochemical pregnancy and spontaneous abortion are. Biochemical pregnancy means that the egg is fertilized, but it does not enter the uterine cavity and cannot implant normally. Ultrasound cannot detect the presence of a gestational sac inside the uterine cavity or outside the uterus, as it only causes an increase in hormones in the body due to the presence of a fertilized egg. After the decrease of hormones in the body, vaginal bleeding is the same as normal menstruation. And spontaneous abortion refers to the presence of a gestational sac in the uterine cavity, with elevated hormone levels, which can be detected by ultrasound. Then there is vaginal bleeding, and upon further examination, there is no gestational sac in the uterine cavity, or only residual material, which is called a natural miscarriage.
Now that we know what biochemical pregnancy and spontaneous abortion are, let's take a look at the difference between them? Biochemical pregnancy is a subclinical miscarriage that occurs before the embryo has successfully implanted, while natural miscarriage occurs after the gestational sac has implanted. Biochemical pregnancy is generally similar to menstruation, and the embryo has not developed to be visible to the naked eye. If flesh like tissue is seen in the bleeding and embryonic like tissue can be seen with the naked eye, then it is a natural miscarriage.
Reminder: Whether it is a biochemical pregnancy or a natural miscarriage, it is important to rest more, pay attention to diet, supplement nutrition, avoid spicy and stimulating foods, and cool foods. Do not get cold, let alone take cold showers. Pay attention to personal hygiene and avoid sexual activity for a month to prevent infection.
