Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Please ask if sleeping on the left side during pregnancy will press on the fetus.Doctor's answer:
Hello, the fetus is protected by amniotic fluid in the uterus. Lying sideways generally does not cause compression. Pregnant women are advised to lie on their side, with the left side being the best position. This can increase blood flow back to the heart, preventing the fetus from experiencing hypoxia or insufficient blood supply. However, this does not apply to those with a left-sided placenta. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects a woman's body but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to have a vaginal discharge test at the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Pay attention to dietary adjustments, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
