Is there a difference between the early stages of pregnancy and the premenstrual period?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Is there a difference between the early stages of pregnancy and the premenstrual period?

Doctor's answer:

The early stages of pregnancy are different from the premenstrual symptoms. It is recommended to check blood HCG after the menstrual period is delayed by one week to determine if pregnancy has occurred. Alternatively, you can use a pregnancy test kit after the menstrual period is delayed by one week, which generally can confirm whether you are pregnant. In your case, it may be threatened miscarriage, which refers to a condition characterized by slight vaginal bleeding in the early stages of pregnancy, intermittent bleeding, accompanied by mild lower abdominal pain and lower back pain. It may lead to miscarriage. It is recommended to have an ultrasound examination first and, if necessary, undergo treatment to prevent miscarriage.
