Patient's question:
Female, 29 years old, pregnant for over two months, experiencing severe morning sickness, unable to eat anything every day, vomiting after dinner, feeling very pitiful, looking very frail. How should initial pregnancy constipation be handled?Doctor's answer:
You are currently pregnant and experiencing hematuria, which may be caused by hemorrhoids. For this consultation, during pregnancy, hormonal changes can affect gastrointestinal motility, and a small number of pregnant women may experience constipation again. Additionally, pregnant women are prone to developing or worsening hemorrhoids (hemorrhoids can also cause difficulty in defecation or hematuria). If you experience the above symptoms again, the first recommendation is to adjust your diet, drink more water, and consume foods and fruits that help lubricate the intestines (such as sweet potatoes, bananas, sesame, dragon fruit, etc.). The second is medication. If dietary adjustments do not alleviate the symptoms, the dosage can be adjusted based on bowel movements, and probiotics can be supplemented if necessary.
