Every girl will have her period, which means that your body can ovulate normally, indicating normal pregnancy function. However, some women often ignore progesterone before pregnancy, and some have lower progesterone levels during pregnancy. What is the reason for this? What kind of impact will it have on pregnancy? Let's take a look with the editor!
What are the symptoms of low ovulation bleeding caused by progesterone
Symptoms of low progesterone levels
Experts point out that low levels of progesterone in women's bodies can lead to bleeding during ovulation. The main symptoms are that women may experience a small amount of bleeding between two menstrual periods, accompanied by lower abdominal pain. Some women have abnormal body temperatures.
Symptom 2 of low progesterone
Some women may experience menstrual disorders due to low levels of progesterone. Some women's menstrual cycles have changed and there have been instances of prolonged periods. In severe cases, some women's menstrual periods may be extended by about 10 days without an increase in menstrual flow. At the same time, after the end of menstruation for a period of time, there will be dripping, coffee colored secretions in the vagina, accompanied by hidden pain in the lower abdomen. This pain is similar to the feeling of bloating, as if gas is trapped in the abdomen and cannot be expelled.
Symptom Three of Low Progesterone
Experts also pointed out that if the flavonoid function in women's bodies is not sound, it will cause poor follicular development or lead to a serious imbalance in the ratio of estrogen and progesterone secretion. At this point, women may experience a shorter menstrual cycle and more frequent menstrual periods. This subsequently led to the occurrence of infertility and miscarriage. Miscarriage at this time is more common in the early stages of pregnancy.
Progesterone effect during pregnancy
1. Inhibit uterine contractions
Some people believe that progesterone can alter the permeability of the uterine muscle cell membrane to ions, causing the membrane to be in a hyperpolarized state, thereby reducing the excitability of the uterine muscle and decreasing its sensitivity to various stimuli, especially oxytocin. Therefore, the pregnant uterus will not undergo severe and progressive contractions, the embryo will not be affected, and the pregnancy can be maintained. Based on this, progesterone is commonly used in clinical practice to protect the fetus.
2. Maintain decidual response
Decidual cells are transformed from endometrial stromal cells and contain glycogen granules that provide nutrients to the blastocyst. Injecting "rabbit anti mouse decidua serum" into pregnant mice can cause miscarriage, indicating the importance of decidua in maintaining pregnancy. Removing the bilateral ovaries of animals with pseudopregnancy induced decidua reaction can lead to decidua necrosis and liquefaction; If exogenous progesterone is administered, it can prevent decidual degeneration. Progesterone is essential for maintaining the decidual response.
3. Inhibit immune response
The fertilized egg is a semi allogeneic transplant, but why is it not immune rejected by the mother during implantation? It has been found that when certain tumor cells are transplanted into the uterine cavity of animals, only in animals injected with progesterone hormone, the tumor cells are not rejected and implant into the uterine wall, indicating that progesterone hormone can suppress the immune response. Similarly, it can be explained that during normal pregnancy, an increase in progesterone hormone can prevent the embryo from being rejected by the mother and maintain pregnancy. If progesterone hormone is insufficient, the embryo will act like a foreign body and be rejected by the mother, resulting in miscarriage.
Women who are pregnant should not ignore progesterone, as it plays an important role in the body. From the previous text, we can also understand that various indicators of a woman's body during pregnancy are very informative. Pregnant mothers must take good care of themselves, whether it is in terms of travel or food. I hope the previous text can be helpful to you!
