Women's bodies undergo many changes from the beginning of pregnancy, such as morning sickness in the early stages of pregnancy, and in the middle of pregnancy, they can feel their baby moving, which is called fetal movement. The late stage of pregnancy is the most difficult time for pregnant women, as the fetus grows larger and compresses various body organs of the pregnant woman. So, what is the reason for increased secretion at 39 weeks of pregnancy?
At 39 weeks of pregnancy, the pregnant woman is already full-term and should be ready to give birth at any time. Pregnant women with increased secretions at this time may be caused by vaginitis. In addition, if it is a watery secretion, it may be due to premature rupture of the water, and it is necessary to go to the hospital for examination. It is best to have a color ultrasound examination to check the condition of the amniotic fluid.
If the secretion of a pregnant woman is jelly like mucus, this is a normal situation, it is uterine mucus. Pregnant women in the late stages of pregnancy must pay attention to counting fetal movements every day. Excessive or insufficient fetal movements are abnormal and may be due to fetal hypoxia. Pregnant women with fetal hypoxia need timely oxygen therapy.
In general, an increase in secretions at 39 weeks of pregnancy may be caused by vaginitis, premature rupture of water, or uterine mucus. Pregnant women should learn to judge on their own. If they cannot judge, they should not be too anxious and can go to the hospital for examination in a timely manner.
