Why is it always false labor contractions at 35 weeks of pregnancy?

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. Why do I always have false labor contractions at 35 weeks of pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Consider the possibility of Braxton Hicks contractions, which often occur after the seventh month of pregnancy. These are not true labor contractions and generally have minimal impact on the body when they occur occasionally. However, if they are more frequent, treatments such as magnesium sulfate can be used to suppress the contractions. Monitor closely, and seek timely treatment if the fetal heartbeat is abnormal. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects a woman's health but can also lead to further gynecological issues. Therefore, it is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a check-up. After identifying the cause, symptomatic treatment should be administered. Additionally, pay attention to personal hygiene and maintain cleanliness in the perineal area.
