"Walking through pregnancy" is the most frequent excuse for a woman who comes to register for a period of more than 12 to 15 weeks, when she is already starting to feel the fetus moving. Does it really happen? After all, in the classic understanding of the gestation process after fertilization of the egg, and then implantation of the embryo of speech, there can not be any critical days. But practice shows the opposite, and one can often observe: pregnancy "through the months," the test is negative and there is no delay. What kind of spotting can a woman have after conception, and how do you know if it happened or not?
Is it Possible to conceive with a monthly
According to the classical ideas of medicine, woman ovulation occurs once a month in the middlecycle for about 13 to 15 days. But this is not always the case in practice, especially for women with long or short, and with an irregular menstrual cycle. Variants when conception can occur on other days:
| Ovulation time | How is conceiving |
| Late ovulation | This is mostly true of the fair sex, whose menstrual periods are c every 32-35 or more days. The yield of the egg is shifting for them on the 22nd-25th day before the critical days. If it happens that conception occurs, and pregnancy develops through the months, the test will be negative in the first month, and two strips will appear only after the delay. Hence the discrepancy in terms of ultrasound and menstruation. |
| Early ovulation | The situation is observed if the cycle is 21 - 25 days. In this case, fertilization can occur immediately after critical days. And engaged in unprotected sex at the end of menstruation, "surviving" sperm( they can be in the active state in the genital tract of a woman up to 4 - 5 days) waiting for the release of the egg. |
| Multiple ovulation | You should also be prepared for unscheduled conception of those in the family who have twins( it's the children who are not the same, not the twins).In women of this kind, multiple ovulation can be observed: one "according to norms", and the second, as a rule, on the eve or on the first day of menstruation. If conception occurs in both cases, then a multiple pregnancy is obtained, this is one of the mechanisms of this phenomenon. |
| Ovulation irregular | Characteristic for girls with a disturbed menstrual cycle. In such situations, it is very difficult to calculate when the egg is released from the ovary, and the female reproductive cell behaves "not according to the canons" of medicine. |
Menstruation in the first month after conception
Sometimes bloody discharge from the genital tract occurs when the conception has already occurred. Some women have come across the fact that "menstruation" can go through pregnancy. But to call them that is not entirely correct.
Early or late fertilization
Observed in girls with irregular, short or long cycles. Conception in such situations occurs on the eve of menstruation, in the first or last days. The fertilized egg does not manage to reach the uterine cavity( it takes 10-14 days), the endometrium is rejected as usual, it looks like usual critical days. To reveal such pregnancy through monthly, signs of which appear not immediately, is not always easy right from the moment of conception.
But women note that all the same menstruation:
- less abundant,
- is shortened to 1 - 3 days,
- appears nausea, weakness and lethargy even before the delay.
Double ovulation
This option is one of the least likely. In this case, the ovum, released from the ovary on days 14 to 16, triggers a chain of hormonal changes to the monthly, which come on time. But the day before the second ovulation occurs with a possible conception.
The threat of interruption under the mask of critical days
Also, often with a threatening miscarriage, bloody discharge is due to detachment - the formation of a hematoma under the forming chorion( future placenta, "child's place").It can be connected not only with violations in the body of a woman, but also with stressful situations, heavy physical labor, trauma, blood diseases, etc.
Ectopic pregnancy
This is one of the terrible conditions that threaten the life of a woman. It is very rare in practice to encounter a classic clinical picture of ectopic pregnancy. Most often, all signs are blurred, and the situation requires immediate surgical care, otherwise because of blood loss, irreversible consequences may occur.
In most cases, the woman marks an unusual start of the menstruation:
- a couple of days delay;
- instead of normal bloody discharge - smear;
- lower abdominal pain more;
- can be an easy dizziness, weakness, nausea.
In principle, at the time of the incident the girl does not even think about the fact of pregnancy, so the test does not. And at this time, the embryo, the implantation of which occurred not in the uterine cavity, but elsewhere( more often it is the fallopian tube, more rarely - the ovary, abdominal cavity, there are cases of mummified embryos even in the intestines), causes the surrounding tissue to rupture and bleeding of differentdegree.
From the moment of onset of conception, it can be found that the nature of the vaginal discharge is changing. Sometimes it worries a lot about expectant mothers. Normally, whites during mating can be mucous in nature, they can be white( but it should not cause itching and discomfort), and sometimes leave a yellowish shade on the underwear. The amount of excreta should be moderate, an increase in volume may indicate either the threat of interruption or the presence of a sexual infection.
Unambiguously, the following characteristics are considered pathological:
- green;
- yellow intensive staining;
- foamy consistency;
- unpleasant fishy or putrid smell;
- presence of traces of blood( from pink hue to dark brown).
If you have any doubts, you should contact an obstetrician-gynecologist and undergo a screening( sampling of smears, tests for sexual infections).
Diseases provoking spotting in pregnancy
Allocating even drops of blood from the vagina in the presence of pregnancy can result in irreparable consequences. That's why you should not ignore the doctor's visit, and also wait until the symptoms become more significant.
Bloody discharge during gestation may indicate a different pathology. The main and most popular similar conditions are:
- pathology of pregnancy;
- cervical disease;
- trauma to the vagina.
Problems with bearing
Most often, spotting indicates a pathology of the embryo itself or the chorion( future placenta).Various hormonal disorders, chronic diseases, stress and trauma can provoke "rejection", the formation of bruising between the wall of the uterus and the chorion. All this in the absence of treatment leads in most cases to a loss of pregnancy. This can happen at any time.
Cervical Diseases
Sexual life during gestation is almost always permitted. However, often after such contacts, bloody discharge can be observed. Especially in the event that a woman has erosion or inflammation on the cervix. Bloody discharge can be the first symptom of a cancer of the body.
During pregnancy, cases of the formation of decidual polyps of the cervical canal are common. Their appearance is associated with a certain hormonal background, which is established after conception. Sometimes, for bleeding from such an education, even traumatization is not necessary - pathological excretions appear for no apparent reason.
We recommend that you read an article on monthly for erosion of the cervix. From it you will learn about the causes and symptoms of the disease, the features of menstruation in a woman, ways of cauterizing erosion. Vaginal Injuries and Other Causes
During pregnancy, all mucous membranes, especially the vagina and cervix, are very vulnerable. And sometimes, pre-conception sexual intercourse can cause injuries with damage to blood vessels, eventually - bleeding.
Also, during the removal of swabs from the cervical canal and the cervix, brown spots may appear on the underwear, sometimes bright red. It's not worth worrying, a couple of hours after the material intake everything will pass.
Now it becomes clear if pregnancy is possible after a month. You should carefully treat your body and make timely contact with specialists. Only then can the terrible consequences of the pathology of pregnancy and other diseases be prevented during the bearing of the child. Especially one should be wary of women with irregular menstrual cycles, as well as those who choose unreliable methods of contraception.
