Patient's question:
Female, 25 years old, uncomfortable after getting pregnant, but this condition has not improved. I want to go to the hospital for a systematic check-up. Is it normal to have frequent flatulence in the early stages of pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
In the early stages of pregnancy, hormone levels in the body change. Progesterone increases continuously, leading to increased gastric acid secretion and slower gastrointestinal motility, which may result in symptoms of malabsorption. Therefore, passing gas is a normal symptom. It is recommended that, in addition to ensuring the absorption of nutrients in daily diet, you should eat as many easily digestible foods as possible. Maintain adequate physical activity every day, and if necessary, you can take probiotics for regulation.There are many methods for treating diseases, but since the condition of each patient is different, the treatment methods also vary. Therefore, patients need to go to a professional hospital for detailed testing as soon as possible to receive targeted treatment.
