Is it normal to have lower back pain and discomfort during the early stages of pregnancy?

Patient's question:

A good friend is 28 years old, and her period has been delayed for more than ten days. She's not sure if she's pregnant and is quite nervous. Please ask: Is it normal to have lower back pain and lower back bloating in the early stages of pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

In this case, it is likely that the discomfort you are experiencing is related to pregnancy, which may have caused an adverse reaction. I suggest you wait and see, pay attention to rest, and there should be no major issues. Do not be too anxious. If necessary, you can go to the hospital for a color Doppler ultrasound to check the growth and development of the fetus inside the uterus. Different causes lead to different symptoms. Patients need to seek systematic and standardized examination in a reputable hospital as soon as possible based on their specific condition to receive targeted treatment and recover quickly.
