Is it normal to have chest pain, lower back pain, and back pain in the early stages of pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I am 27 years old. In the past few days, I have had brown discharge from my lower body. I don't know what's going on, and I suspect I might be pregnant. Please ask: Is it normal to have chest pain, lower back pain, and back pain in the early stages of pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

These are all normal phenomena in the early stages of pregnancy. Due to changes in hormone levels, the breasts may become tender and swollen. After becoming pregnant, pelvic congestion may occur, which can lead to lower back pain. Drinking alcohol during pregnancy may potentially affect the fetus, but it cannot be said with certainty that it will have an impact. No one can give you a definitive answer. If you want to have a child, it is best to avoid alcohol as much as possible. Symptoms may improve after three months. In the early stages of pregnancy, hormonal changes can make joint ligaments looser, and the uterus enlarges, controlling pelvic tissues and nerves. To alleviate symptoms, it is important to get adequate rest and wear low-heeled shoes.
