Patient's question:
During my pregnancy preparation period, I had intercourse a few days ago. Lately, I've been experiencing dull pain in my lower abdomen, similar to what I feel when my period is about to start. I think it might be implantation pain. Is implantation pain continuous or does it come in waves?Doctor's answer:
If the pain is caused by implantation, it usually does not last too long and will not exceed a week. During this period, it is even more important to take appropriate nursing measures. For patients with severe sharp pain, it is advisable to take some pain relievers appropriately. Moreover, when sleeping at night, it is recommended to maintain a supine position. Additionally, it is important to use a towel for hot compresses during the day. These measures can help alleviate the pain and prevent other adverse effects.
