Patient's question:
My partner is currently about 55 days pregnant. Why do I always feel lower back pain and intermittent pain in the lower abdomen now? What should I do!!!! Thank youDoctor's answer:
Abdominal pain in the early stages of pregnancy has many causes, some of which are normal physiological phenomena. Generally, physiological abdominal pain is not very severe and occurs for a very short duration. It is mainly due to the expansion of the uterus after pregnancy, which stretches the uterine ligaments, and usually does not affect daily life. The pain is not fixed in location. If there is no organic disease after examination, there is no need for treatment at all. Common causes of abdominal pain in the early stages of pregnancy include:1. Threatened miscarriage: Patients with threatened miscarriage may experience abdominal pain, sometimes accompanied by spotting.
2. Ectopic pregnancy: Patients with ectopic pregnancy often have abdominal pain, but most experience pain on one side, along with irregular vaginal bleeding.
3. Organic diseases, such as ovarian cysts or uterine fibroids: If symptoms are severe, last for a long time, and are accompanied by bleeding, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly.
