What is the reason for occasional mild lower abdominal pain in the early stages of pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Female, 32 years old, recently she has been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially on the left side, with a persistent dull ache. Is this normal? She wants to consult about what causes mild lower abdominal pain during the early stages of pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

It is recommended that you first undergo an ultrasound to check how the gestational sac is developing. There may be signs of miscarriage. If there are no abnormalities, it could be due to gas causing abdominal discomfort, which is a normal phenomenon in the early stages of pregnancy. Pay attention to keeping warm and avoid consuming extremely cold or spicy foods, which can be irritating. Different causes lead to different symptoms. Patients need to go to a standard Grade-A hospital for systematic and standardized examinations based on their specific conditions as soon as possible. This will enable targeted treatment and help you recover quickly.
