What is the reason for the marks on both sides of the small abdomen of a pregnant woman?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

During pregnancy, the uterus will enlarge, which can cause stretch marks and make the midline of the abdomen more prominent. Since there is no picture, the marks you mentioned are likely due to these two factors, and there is no need to worry. Stretch marks during pregnancy are red and gradually turn white after delivery. Pay attention to hygiene and undergo regular prenatal check-ups.
