Patient's question:
Medical history: My last menstrual period was on July 19th. I had sexual intercourse with my husband between July 31st and August 3rd. On August 11th, I used a pregnancy test, but there was only one line. I want to ask if I could be pregnant? It was said that it could be detected within 7-10 days, so does this mean I am not pregnant? If I am pregnant, I went hiking on August 9th. I didn't feel very tired, but I suddenly had some lower abdominal pain and a sense of heaviness and pulling at night. It lasted for about half an hour and wasn't very serious. After that, there was nothing else, no bleeding, etc. Could this be related to pregnancy? Thank you very much.Past treatment history and effectiveness: Pelvic inflammatory disease treatment was performed at the end of April.

Doctor's answer:
Hello, abdominal pain in the early stages of pregnancy can be caused by two aspects: physiological and pathological. 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. If there are no organic diseases after examination, treatment is not necessary. If it is a case of threatened miscarriage after pregnancy, bed rest and medication to support fetal development are required. Hospitalization may be necessary if needed. If it is not a case of miscarriage, it is important to maintain emotional stability, avoid stressful environments, supplement with adequate nutrition, and ensure sufficient rest.
