What does it mean if the urine pH is 7.5 during the first month of pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I have a particularly itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? What does it mean if the urine pH is 7.5 one month into pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, generally, an early pregnancy test can be done around day 35 of a missed period, or a blood HCG test can be performed 10 days after intercourse to confirm pregnancy. After becoming pregnant, it is important to rest and maintain proper nutrition, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. Regular prenatal check-ups, such as ultrasound for fetal anomaly screening and Down syndrome screening, should be conducted. In your case, it may be threatened miscarriage. Threatened miscarriage refers to a condition in early pregnancy where there is slight vaginal bleeding that comes and goes, accompanied by mild lower abdominal pain and backache. It may lead to miscarriage, so it is recommended to have an ultrasound first. If necessary, treatment to prevent miscarriage should be considered.
