10 days after. Quit smoking calendar. Problems with the digestive system

Marya Sirotkina, 28 years old

educational entrepreneur, founder of Jey Study agency, had a baby during her MBA, now opens a coworking co-living space in the Canary Islands

“In total, there were about 30 educational institutions on my list”

It all started with the fact that while still studying at MGIMO, two of my classmates, Kirill Khripunov and Matvey Amagaev, and I created the educational company Jey Study. After receiving my diploma, I continued to work on this project, but I tried to work remotely - I wanted to try to live not in Moscow, but in some other interesting places. I managed to live in Costa Rica, Thailand and Spain, study in Jordan and create an NGO project with the UN in Nigeria. I have a journalistic education that has nothing to do with business, but at the same time I have never really been involved in journalism, except perhaps for practice during my student years or temporary part-time jobs. Instead, I focused on the business from the very beginning and needed to fill in my knowledge gap.

When choosing a business school, I used a scoring system: I compiled a list of criteria that were important to me and gave each school a score for each of these criteria. There were about 30 in total on my list. educational institutions. The location was extremely important for me: it had to be a city, not a village and not a remote campus - after all, MBA students are no longer at the age to live in a pioneer camp for a year away from real life. I also focused on ratings, primarily on the Financial Times. School representatives will tell you that rankings are not important, but students are. The fact is that the most ambitious people choose the most rated schools, and it was interesting for me to study with ambitious people. It was also important that the training lasted exactly a year and no more - then I had plans to move on. I looked at the price last, my approach was this: first you need to go where you want to go according to priorities, and then we'll figure it out.

My parents once told me a very important thing, and later I became convinced of how true it is: at school, what matters is who you study with and with whom you study. When choosing, it was important for me that this is an international school - I just wanted to gain as many new international contacts as possible. Yes, I had already formed a base of such contacts at the time of admission, but these were people from my own educational sphere, and it is very difficult to go beyond my own professional environment. The year of study at IE turned out to be extremely intensive and fruitful in terms of networking. Moreover, it was possible not only to get to know and communicate with people, but to immediately start working together.

I studied on a completely English-language program, so knowledge of Spanish was not required for me. But my husband is Spanish, so at the time of admission I already spoke a little in this language. However, Spanish was not needed to communicate with classmates. As far as I know, none of my classmates ever learned this language - simply because there was no time, the training program was too intense. Spanish is a must if you are going to pursue a career in Latin America. In Spain itself, in many positions, you can safely start with English - for example, in the field of consulting or audit.

“Almost immediately after the hospital, I had to be at the university”

During my studies, I gave birth to a child, he was already a year old. In Europe, such things are easier to relate to, there is no concept of a long decree - in Spain, for example, a decree lasts 16 weeks. I am very close to this position. Almost immediately after the hospital, I had to be at the university where a career fair was held - and I was present at it. 10 days after giving birth, I started having couples - and I went to them. I had to take a few more courses, write a term paper and complete work on one startup - and I did it. There is nothing superhuman about it. Yes, with the advent of a child, there are additional difficulties in terms of logistics, but MBA students should cope with logistics with a bang. My family helped me a lot, I couldn't have done it without them. My mother came to me for a month and a half and carried my child to feed me between couples. My husband works remotely from home, and he also helped as much as he could. You could say that we all graduated from my MBA together. Even now, looking back, it seems to me that everything was fine and not so difficult.

“Digital nomads come to us from all over the planet”

My new project, ReStation co-living, was launched quite recently - in October. This is a project of the workation format, that is, work + vacation, work and rest are two in one. We are visited by people from all over the planet who work remotely (in English they are called digital nomads), as well as teams that conduct field team building retreats. Oddly enough, we're already packed. People found out about us through booking sites and online communities where we talked about ourselves and our activities. Press releases began to be sent out after the first guests were accepted.

ReStation is located in Las Palmas, the capital of Gran Canaria. This is a fairly large city with a population of about half a million and good infrastructure. The Canary Islands is a subsidized region, so there are low prices for gasoline, real estate and life in general. In addition, it is one of the world's most popular places for remote working teams. Having tested the business model in the relatively compact community of Las Palmas, we plan to scale it to other areas.

Normally, a woman's menstruation lasts from 3 to 7 days with a frequency of 26-35 days. If menstruation appears 10 days after the previous ones, then this is a clear sign of disorders in the body. The most harmless of them are hormonal failure caused by severe stress, taking contraceptives or other potent drugs. Also, a violation of the cycle can be caused by the installation of a spiral. But much more often, with menstruation that began prematurely, one or another disease is diagnosed.

Cervical erosion

This diagnosis is quite common. Erosion is a violation of the integrity (inflammation, ulceration) of the uterine mucosa. The cause of the disease can be infections, frequent change of sexual partners, disturbed hormonal levels. Typical symptoms of cervical erosion:

  • the appearance of bleeding in the middle of the cycle, mainly after sexual contact;
  • copious discharge of whites;
  • pulling pains in the lower abdomen;
  • unpleasant smell of secretions, change in their color, sometimes itching and burning.

The main danger of erosion is that it can degenerate into a malignant formation. Therefore, if you have all the above symptoms, you need to go to the doctor for an examination. The disease is successfully treated with cauterizing methods. Also, with erosion of the cervix, abstinence from sexual life for a period of 6 weeks is recommended.

Neoplasms

Menstruation may begin earlier than expected due to neoplasms in the uterus or ovaries. Most often women find:

  • Functional ovarian cysts (follicular, luteal). Manifest irregular cycle, pain in the lower abdomen from the side where the cyst formed, scanty or vice versa, profuse menstruation. Such formations are prone to self-resorption within 3 months.
  • Non-functional ovarian cysts (dermoid, hemorrhagic, mucinous, serous, germinogenic, endometrial, epithelial). The type of tumor is determined by its composition. So, the dermoid cyst contains cartilage, fat, skin, and the serous fluid yellow color etc. Non-functional formations appear as well as functional ones, but more pronounced. Symptoms do not disappear after 3 months. Additionally, there are signs such as male pattern hair growth, weight gain, constipation, frequent urination with a large tumor size.
  • Myoma of the uterus. Myoma is a formation that develops in the myometrium (the muscular layer of the uterus). Most often, the disease develops in women 30-40 years old. Characteristic features: pain in the intermenstrual period, spotting, with compression of nearby organs, constipation and frequent urination, anemia with frequent bleeding. Some fibroids can reach especially large sizes. In this case, the woman is assigned a hysterectomy (removal of the entire uterus). At the initial stages of tumor development, doctors limit themselves to conservative and minimally invasive methods that allow preserving reproductive function.

Neoplasms can be seen on ultrasound. The transvaginal method (through the vagina) is considered more informative. To clarify the type of tumor, it is sometimes necessary to undergo diagnostic laparoscopy- examination through a small puncture-incision in the abdominal wall.

Polycystic ovaries

The cause of the pathology is hormonal disorders, hereditary predisposition, disorders in the regulatory structures of the brain - the hypothalamus and pituitary gland. With polycystic disease, the production of male sex hormones is increased, so women often experience hair growth above the upper lip, around the nipples, on the buttocks, etc. The disease is also manifested by rapid weight gain, lack of ovulation, and as a result, infertility. As for menstruation, with polycystic ovaries, they are most often meager, there are a small number of days, and they are repeated irregularly. The interval between periods can be 10 or 50 or more days.

The diagnosis of polycystic ovaries is established on the basis of ultrasound and a basal temperature chart confirming anovulation. An ultrasound examination of a woman clearly defines enlarged ovaries, covered with unruptured follicles and degenerated into cysts. In most cases, pathology is treated with conservative methods - hormonal drugs, diet and exercise.

Endocrine disorders

Any pathology of hormone-producing organs affects the menstrual cycle. It can be inflammatory diseases, neoplasms, hypo- and hyperfunction of the thyroid gland, adrenal glands, pituitary gland, hypothalamus. Lack of nutrition and severe stress can lead to disruption of hormone production. The main symptoms of endocrine disorders:

  • a sharp increase or decrease in weight by more than 3 kg;
  • fatigue, weakness, drowsiness;
  • frequent headaches;
  • discharge from the mammary glands;
  • cycle failure, menstruation 10 days after the previous ones, absence of menstruation for more than 35 days;
  • discomfort in the eyes, a sharp deterioration in vision;
  • violation of the heart rhythm;
  • tearfulness, irritability, memory impairment, emotional instability;
  • pressing sensations in the neck, impaired swallowing.

To establish an accurate diagnosis, a woman is prescribed an ultrasound scan, hormone tests, and a CT scan of the brain. Treatment will depend on the exact diagnosis. Both conservative and surgical methods can be applied.

endometriosis

The disease is characterized by pathological proliferation of cells of the uterine mucosa. Complicated childbirth, abortion, infectious and inflammatory diseases, operations on the uterus, hormonal disorders can provoke the development of endometriosis. Not the last role in the development of pathology is played by heredity. How endometriosis manifests itself:

  • pain before, during and after menstruation;
  • uterine bleeding (abundant prolonged menstruation, the appearance of menstruation 10, 15, 20 days after the previous ones);
  • pain during sexual intercourse, defecation, urination;
  • infertility.

Surgical treatment of endometriosis. In severe cases, the uterus is removed. Conservative methods are used only to curb the growth of the endometrium (hormonal and anti-inflammatory drugs, physiotherapy).

Ectopic pregnancy

If menstruation began 10 days after the previous ones, and the day before the woman had unprotected sexual contact, then bleeding may be a sign of an ectopic pregnancy. When a fertilized egg attaches outside the uterine cavity, damage occurs internal organs(ovaries, fallopian tubes, etc.). Pregnancy does not develop, symptoms increase:

  • dizziness, loss of consciousness, pale skin;
  • cramping or cutting pain in the lower abdomen;
  • spotting (usually scanty, spotting).

An ectopic pregnancy without timely treatment to a doctor ends in death. The treatment is surgical, the woman undergoes a laparoscopic operation, during which the fetal egg is removed.

In a healthy woman, menstruation cannot begin 10 days after the previous ones. This phenomenon indicates various kinds of diseases, hormonal disorders in the body. Some of them are quite serious and can be fatal. To find out the exact cause of menstruation in the middle of the cycle, you need to consult a doctor.

A woman's health is largely determined by the stability menstrual cycle. In the event of failures in the body, menstruation fails. Unstable periods can be a signal of some kind of illness. Frequent menstruation is one of the most common problems among women of childbearing age. Menstruation, which began a short period of time after the previous menstruation, is an occasion for immediate medical attention. On your own, you run the risk of not distinguishing between menstrual flow and bleeding. Do not expect everything to go away by itself, and next time the critical days will start on time.

Too frequent menstruation- a reason to see a doctor

Menstrual cycle: norm and deviations

Normally, the cycle is 28-30 days, 3-7 of which are monthly. In adolescence, as well as postpartum and menopause, a short cycle is also possible, which is 21-22 days. Even if we take the maximum number of critical days in the cycle, then the interval between periods is at least 2 weeks. A short cycle is justified by a hormonal failure in the body, which can recover on its own. To establish the causes of a short cycle, the factor of heredity is also taken into account. If there is a hereditary predisposition to a small cycle, there are no complaints during critical days and all tests correspond to the norm, a short cycle is not a pathology.

But if menstruation began 10 days after the end of the normal cycle, then there can be no talk of heredity. This phenomenon clearly indicates the presence of pathology in female body.

In the middle of the cycle, there may be discharge of white, transparent or cream color, before ovulation their abundance increases, and this is the norm. The appearance of spotting in the middle of the cycle indicates the presence of various diseases. If you experience irregular periods in your menstrual cycle, and your period started 10 days after the end of the cycle, it's time to sound the alarm. Do not try to find an excuse in the form of stress and overwork on your own. This is important factors in the development of the menstrual cycle, but they entail changes with a difference of several days, not weeks.

The cause of menstruation 10 days after the previous one cannot be established independently

Causes of irregularities in the menstrual cycle

Every girl and woman has a calendar in which she marks critical days. This makes it possible to guess when the next menstruation will begin and stock up on the necessary hygiene products in advance. But, it is not always possible to predict when menstruation will begin again. The female body is vulnerable to various factors, and quickly responds to all sorts of changes. If your calculations failed you and your period started much earlier, you should seriously think about your health. It is most dangerous if menstruation began earlier than 2 weeks after the previous one. There are various reasons for this failure:

  1. inflammatory processes in genitourinary system. They may be associated with hypothermia, unprotected intercourse, non-compliance with hygiene rules.
  2. Hormonal changes. They occur during periods of crisis. Hormonal failure is typical for adolescence, when it occurs puberty. Hormonal disorders occur after childbirth, during lactation, after an abortion, and also in menopause. The onset of menstruation 10 days after the previous one is associated with a change in the hormonal background in the woman's body. It is possible that they do not require drug treatment but see a doctor is recommended. In addition to periods of crisis, changes in hormone levels can occur due to problems with the thyroid gland, so cycle failure cannot be ignored.
  3. The use of a spiral as a contraceptive drug. It is a foreign object in the body of a woman, to which you need to adapt. In most cases, the use of intrauterine devices entails cycle failures.
  4. The reasons that critical days go 10 days after the previous ones include the use of medications, the use of anesthesia. Among medical preparations Most of all, the menstrual cycle is affected by antibiotics and rapid contraceptives.
  5. Education of benign and malignant tumors- one of the reasons when menstruation begins 10 days after the last period. The body struggles with the toxins released by the neoplasms, and as a result, failures occur in the menstrual cycle.
  6. Premature menstruation is a sign of an ectopic pregnancy. The essence of this phenomenon is that the egg takes root outside the uterus. The discharge is profuse, accompanied by sharp pains in the lower abdomen. The danger of an ectopic pregnancy is that if it is not detected in time, the egg will rupture and peritonitis will occur. Neglecting disruptions in the cycle and unplanned periods (10-14 days after the previous menstruation) threatens not only with the impossibility of having children in the future, but also with a fatal outcome.
  7. Stress, strong emotional upheavals, moving and climate change can also lead to hormonal changes and menstrual irregularities.

Peritonitis is one of the most severe complications of ectopic pregnancy.

Diagnosis of the disease

Before ovulation, vaginal discharge intensifies, but it should not be bloody. If menstruation began much earlier, it is necessary to undergo a medical examination. To establish the cause of the failure, you will need the following tests: a PCR smear, which is used to diagnose various diseases. Must submit general analysis blood, you will need a blood clotting test. To identify the cause of the failure and establish an accurate diagnosis, a regular gynecological examination is not enough.

You will need to undergo a colposcopy and a pelvic ultrasound examination. It will not be superfluous to take tests for hormones, you will need to donate blood for tumor markers.

It will take a lot of time to pass all the tests in the clinic. If unplanned menstruation is accompanied by poor health, it is better to immediately go to the hospital. In the hospital you will comprehensive examination, if necessary, you will be quickly assisted. If there are no complaints of nausea, dizziness and pain in the lower abdomen, and you feel as usual, you can do without outpatient treatment. Approach the choice of a doctor responsibly, contact an experienced specialist who works with modern equipment. So you can immediately undergo an examination with a colposcope and find out a presumptive diagnosis. The doctor can establish the final conclusion only if there is a complex of analyzes.

It is impossible to independently establish why in the middle of the cycle menstruation began again, again after 10 days, is impossible. When the discharge began due to an ectopic pregnancy, it will not be possible to stop them on their own, waiting will only aggravate the situation. If the next menstruation came 10 days after the previous one, look for the causes of the failure in the menstrual cycle only with the help of specialists.

Often, brown, bloody or other discharge that suddenly appears 10 days after menstruation frightens a woman. However, when faced with this, you should not immediately panic. They do not always indicate problems, diseases and do not require medical intervention.

The discharge can be with or without an unpleasant odor. They differ in texture and color. According to the first feature, they are divided into foamy, curd or jelly-like. By shade:

  • brown;
  • red;
  • pink;
  • greenish;
  • whitish, etc.

They are spotting or plentiful
In the period close to ovulation, the appearance of stretching, transparent, egg-like mucus is normal. As long as it is fresh, there should be no smell. It appears as a result of the multiplication of bacteria. Unpleasant "aroma", itching, burning, unnatural - these are symptoms that indicate the need to see a doctor.

Main reasons

Bleeding and other similar manifestations after the end of menstruation are not uncommon. One of the common reasons is the jumps in the level of estrogen in the blood, especially during the period of ovulation. To eliminate the problem, the doctor prescribes special hormonal drugs. There are frequent cases when smearing dark or light brown discharge is one of the body's reactions to stress.

Minor bleeding after a few days after menstruation is possible due to the use of a new hormonal contraceptive. This is natural, while the female body adapts to it. However, if the situation does not change within a few months, then you should consult a gynecologist. Another possible cause is internal trauma to the genitals as a result of:

  • inept examination of the doctor;
  • excessively "hard" sex, etc.

Most often, the mucous membranes are injured due to a lack of estrogens during lactation, menopause. At the same time, the color of the discharge is predominantly bloody, bright red, although it can also be brown, and if sexual rest is observed for several days, they end.
If new bloody periods began during the second week or a little earlier, and at the same time the woman does not feel well, she has dizziness, lower blood pressure, pain in the lower abdomen, then an ectopic pregnancy may be the cause of these symptoms. Only a gynecologist is able to accurately diagnose the development of an embryo not in the uterus. And you should contact him as soon as possible.

Caution, possible illness

Bloody, brown or other discharge that appears 7-16 days after menstruation is often a signal of the presence inflammatory processes, various diseases. fungal, bacterial infections cause inflammation of the uterine lining - endometritis. They are transmitted sexually, may occur after diagnostic curettage, abortion, and other similar interventions. Among the local symptoms most often noted:

Pain when pressed in the uterus;
purulent, brown discharge a week or more after menstruation.

However, it should be remembered that the disease can be asymptomatic.

With a deficiency of thyroid hormones, the thyroid gland develops hypothyroidism. In women, one of its manifestations is menstrual irregularities. Toward the end of 2 weeks after the end of menstruation, new spotting or brown discharge may begin.
Another pathology associated with the unexpected appearance of blood stains on underwear during this period is endometriosis. It is associated with the growth of uterine tissue in other organs. The exact causes of the disease have not been established, some of them are hereditary predisposition and disorders in the immune system. For many women, the most unpleasant consequence is infertility.

Hormonal imbalance can result in benign tumors- uterine fibroids.

They appear:

  • heavy menstruation;
  • feeling of compression of the pelvic organs;
  • brown, bloody discharge after the end of menstruation.

Most often they are found in women 25-35 years old, for the most part they do not require operable intervention, with the exception of cases of fibroids on the "leg" or with a significant size of the tumor.

What to do

If unscheduled brown, bloody or other discharge is accompanied by discomfort, pain or odor, then you need to see a gynecologist. It is better to do this immediately after their completion. With prolonged manifestations, a visit to the doctor is allowed and at any time. Based on the results of the initial examination, the doctor, if necessary, prescribes tests, possibly ultrasound. At the next visit, a course of treatment is signed.

Today, failures of menstruation are not uncommon. The appearance of brown, bloody spots on the pad after 1.5-2 weeks after the end of menstruation may indicate damage to the internal membranes of the genital organs, hormonal disruptions or development serious illnesses. Therefore, if you have any concerns, it is better to consult a doctor.

The first signs of pregnancy that appear after conception

Not reliable, but quite interesting to collect a small statistics of the most likely and fantastic signs that the body of the future mother gives about the upcoming motherhood. To write this article, we, among other things, looked at several topics on the forums of expectant mothers. So, what do women feel in the first two weeks, what are the very first signs of pregnancy after conception?

Stomach ache

This is a standard occurrence. Women can also feel such pains before the onset of menstruation, so, at first, the discomfort does not mean anything. But if the pain remains, and there is still no bleeding, then you should consult a gynecologist. Sometimes such pains signal a threatening miscarriage. These spasms are in no way connected with the growth of the uterus, as many believe. At 5 weeks pregnant, the uterus is only the size of a hen's egg, and no "ligaments" have been stretched yet either. In general, these first signs of pregnancy after conception should not be a concern if there is no spotting.

Problems with the digestive system

Here we include the following:

  • flatulence;
  • nausea and vomiting (toxicosis);
  • change in taste preferences in food;
  • a sharp reaction to certain odors.

But just keep in mind that the above symptoms are the first signs of pregnancy after conception only if at least a week has passed since its moment. The previously fertilized egg is still in fallopian tube, and the hormonal background of a woman remains unchanged. Dramatic changes can be noticed only after the introduction of the egg fertilized by the spermatozoon into the wall of the uterus.

Difficult psychological state

First of all, it consists in frequent mood swings. Of course, women in general are not permanent creatures, but expectant mothers, for the most part, become even more capricious. You don't have to judge them for it. Hormonal levels play a role here. A woman's body signals what it lacks, so future fathers sometimes have to run to the store at night. And self-pity is caused by the instinct of self-preservation of oneself and the child. Changes in mood can begin simultaneously with the appearance of the main first signs of pregnancy after conception. It has been noticed that primiparas always experience more, the reason for this is inexperience or internal unpreparedness to become a mother.

Enlargement and soreness of the mammary glands

Probably 90% of women have these first signs of pregnancy after conception. For some, they are more pronounced, and someone does not pay attention to them because of the existing mastopathy (which these sensations are similar to). Some women with zero or first breast size notice that just a couple of weeks after conception, their breasts began to take on more seductive, rounded shapes. This is due to the preparation of the breast for the subsequent feeding of the child.

In some cases, women even notice discharge from the nipples - this is colostrum. A liquid that replaces breast milk for a baby in the first days of his life. But more often this feature appears in the second half of pregnancy.

Frequent urination

If we talk about this first sign of pregnancy after conception, then its main cause is an increase in the blood level of the hormone progesterone, which somewhat relaxes the sphincter Bladder. I want to go to the toilet more often. And with an increase in the gestational age, this symptom, as a rule, becomes more and more pronounced. From the second half of pregnancy, a heavy uterus begins to put pressure on the bladder, which again speeds up urination. Probably, there is no such future mother who would not get up at night to go to the toilet.

It is very important not to miss the onset of cystitis, an inflammation of the bladder that happens to many expectant mothers. In principle, if a woman is registered with a gynecologist, she regularly takes urine tests, and according to their results, a relapse of cystitis can be determined. Its main symptoms are very frequent and painful urination, pain in the lower abdomen. In more severe cases, the body temperature rises, and there is severe weakness.

Increase in rectal and body temperature

With regard to basal temperature, this is one of the main evidence of an interesting situation, but only after the onset of a delay in menstruation. We can say that the first signs of pregnancy after conception, but not too reliable for the time being. The fact is that an increase in basal temperature in the second half of the cycle is an ordinary phenomenon and only indicates that ovulation has occurred and that a woman in this cycle is capable of conception, respectively. The thermometer begins to show a little more than 37 degrees due to the fact that the body after ovulation begins to intensively produce progesterone, which provokes an elevated temperature. If the conception took place, and the values ​​​​on the thermometer are shown below 37 degrees, then the doctor may suspect a lack of progesterone, and this is one of the common causes of spontaneous miscarriages.

Remember that temperature values ​​​​are greatly affected by the intake of various medications, alcohol intake, sexual intercourse a few hours before morning, various diseases, etc.

By the way, the first signs of pregnancy after conception are to raise not only the basal, but also the overall body temperature. This is often thought of as a cold coming on, but no other symptoms possible disease do not appear.

Chorionic gonadotropin in the blood and urine of a woman

Chorionic gonadotropin is a hormone that begins to be produced by the chorion - the future placenta. There are three simple ways to determine the presence of this hormone: do a home pregnancy test, donate blood for analysis, and take urine for analysis. The latter method was very popular for many years, until convenient test strips appeared. Now you do not need to carry urine for analysis. A pregnancy test with high sensitivity (look at the packaging, it should say no more than 20) can show an accurate result 2-3 days before the onset of the delay. While conventional, not too sensitive test strips are recommended to be used only after the start of the delay.

A blood test can be done even earlier, literally from the 10th day after conception, about a week before the start of the delay. And if ovulation occurred in the middle of the cycle, then at this time everything will be clear. The results of a blood test for hCG are the most reliable, the only accurate first signs of pregnancy after conception before the start of a missed period.

Mystical sign - dreams

Many mothers know that the very first symptom of an emerging life has nothing to do with medicine and health. These are our dreams. Most women claim that they saw in that menstrual cycle, when the egg was fertilized, in a dream a fish ... Yes, an ordinary, live fish swimming in a pond or hanging on a fishing hook. Believe it or not - it's up to you.

Why do you need to know the first signs of pregnancy after conception?

We have considered the main probable and relatively reliable symptoms. But does it make sense to hurry with the diagnosis, especially since mistakes are not rare at very early dates? Yes, there is some sense in this. As you know, in the early stages it is very dangerous to take some medicines, which means you need to ask the doctor to adjust the treatment, if it is being carried out. Expectant mothers should not take x-rays in the early stages, it is undesirable to catch a cold, and even more so, the risk of contracting sexually transmitted infections must be completely eliminated. There are diseases that are asymptomatic and it is desirable to undergo treatment during the planning period. full examination both partners.

For this, you need to know the first signs of pregnancy after conception, and in order not to worry - the child must be planned, not accidental.

Have a healthy and happy pregnancy!

Signs of conception

Regardless of whether the pregnancy is long-awaited or accidental, the body of the expectant mother will not be slow to inform the lucky woman about her interesting situation with the help of characteristic symptoms. Contrary to popular belief that there can be no talk of any signs of conception before a delay in menstruation, many mothers who have already taken place claim that they knew about their pregnancy almost the next day after intercourse. Is this so, and what are the first signs after conception, let's try to figure it out.

Signs of pregnancy immediately after conception

Gynecologists believe that the first week, or even the first 10 days after conception, it is not worth waiting for any signs of pregnancy. Since the body is just beginning the process of restructuring and a violent reaction to such changes should begin a little later. However, the statistics say otherwise.

We suggest that you familiarize yourself with the most reliable signs that conception occurred already in the first week after the event.

A girl is riding on a bus, her grandmother comes up to her:

Girl, make way for an old grandmother.

I can't, I'm pregnant.

So you can't see.

Do you want to be visible in 2 hours?

An anecdote is an anecdote, and there are many girls who are looking for pregnancy symptoms in the early days. To figure out when you really need to look for them, you need to understand how the pregnancy goes from the first day and why the symptoms occur.

What are the first days of pregnancy

So, a small nimble sperm entered the uterus, ran into the tube and found an egg there. They merged in love ecstasy and turned into a microscopic embryo. All this took a little time, just a day. And what has changed in the body of the expectant mother on the first day of pregnancy after conception? Almost nothing, since all the symptoms of pregnancy in the early days are associated with hormones, and these substances are very tricky, they prepare a woman to become a mother every month.

In the second half of each cycle, progesterone begins to be produced, it is he who is responsible for the symptoms of pregnancy in the first days. But the fact is that without pregnancy, some symptoms also appear - this is breast enlargement, and an increase in basal temperature (for the heroic ladies who follow it). And progesterone also stimulates the reproduction of epithelial cells inside the uterus, so that the little embryo has something to eat in the first days of pregnancy, until the placenta is formed.

So the first day of pregnancy after conception for the mother is no different from the usual day after ovulation. The most interesting begins in a week. It is on the seventh day that the love fruit of the egg and sperm ends its difficult journey from the fallopian tube to the uterus itself. There, he quickly hides in a thick epithelium, carefully prepared for him by progesterone, and only then does his mother's body begin to produce another interesting hormone - chorionic gonadotropin. It prevents the corpus luteum, which is responsible for the synthesis of progesterone, from retiring or simply disappearing, as happens during a normal cycle. The corpus luteum continues to produce progesterone, the hormone accumulates and causes specific symptoms of pregnancy in the early days.

Chorionic gonadotropin can be found in the urine using a small white strip called a pregnancy test. Just do not look for the hormone on the first day of pregnancy, as it is not there yet. It is best to do a check after a delay in menstruation, and if it is very unbearable, then 2-3 days before their possible start. Chorionic gonadotropin makes itself felt by a large red line on the strip, it is located above the same red line, without which the test is not considered valid. So the pregnancy test will not show from the first day, you have to wait two weeks.

The first days of pregnancy, what does a woman feel

In fact, it is impossible to feel pregnancy on the first day and the reasons were outlined above. Although sometimes this happens, especially with women who are looking forward to pregnancy or are terribly afraid of it. The reason due to which pregnancy is supposedly recognized from the first day is exclusively psychological, but from the first week it is already physiological. Implantation on the seventh day may make itself felt with a slight pink discharge. Such a surprise may surprise a woman, saying that menstruation began early. Such symptoms of pregnancy in the early days should not be frightening, they are normal and do not threaten a breakdown. It's just that the embryo settles too violently in the uterus and damages the epithelium a little, causing a little bleeding. Allocations declassify pregnancy on the first day of the stay of the embryo in its habitat for the next nine months.

What does progesterone do with the body of the expectant mother in the first days of pregnancy? He thinks, first of all, about the child and rebuilds all the functions of the woman's body for him. The functions of the body do not really like this, they are rather conservative and do not always want to work in a new mode. Mom feels disputes between functions and progesterone, if not on the first day of pregnancy, then on the seventh or eighth for sure.

The symptoms of pregnancy in the first days appear in the morning and end in the toilet with a standard movie scene. From that moment, nausea during pregnancy and occasional vomiting can accompany a woman for up to three months. While not everyone begins their mommy journey this way, some women are lucky, depending on how the relationship between progesterone and function develops on the first day of pregnancy.

Another symptom that accompanies pregnancy from the first day (almost), your husband may really like it - the breasts become large and beautiful. But this will not help in love games, because she also starts to get sick, and much more than on the eve of menstruation. Yes, and the first days of pregnancy do not have love games, because you constantly want to sleep. The pressure can also drop and the headache will no longer be an excuse, but will become an objective reality.

Don't be surprised if on your first day of pregnancy you feel like throwing away all your perfume, shower gels, hand soap and dirty men's socks. And also clean the refrigerator, leaving only pickles there. After all, pregnancy from the first day can completely change your taste and addiction to smells.

In the first days of pregnancy, you will suddenly begin to find out where the toilet is at your partners' office, in the supermarket or in your favorite cafe, and you will also learn how to find your way to the toilet at home in the dark. This is normal, because frequent urination is also the antics of progesterone. He wants the baby to get as much food as possible and therefore drives the blood to the uterus, and at the same time to the kidneys. The kidneys begin to work very, very well and do not give you rest day or night. The main thing is not to confuse the symptoms of pregnancy in the early days and cystitis. With cystitis, you not only often run to the toilet, but also bounce there in pain, sometimes the temperature also rises.

And now information for the heroic women who measure basal temperature. This procedure is really difficult, you need every morning, before you get out of bed, in anus, measure the temperature with a thermometer. Then write it down in a notebook, and not once, but for several months in a row. The temperature in the first days of pregnancy rises, then drops during implantation, and then rises again. In a normal menstrual cycle, the decline continues until the next ovulation, which occurs only a month later.

Signs of pregnancy in the first week

Signs of pregnancy that appear in the first week after conception

Signs of pregnancy in the first week after conception are not at all significant, but despite this, this search query is very popular on the network. And this is confirmed by reading thematic discussions on the forums of those planning pregnancy and expectant mothers. There you can learn a lot of interesting things, hear about such signs of pregnancy in the first week after conception, which, probably, not all doctors are aware of. But first things first.

It is necessary to immediately understand that pregnancy after the fertilization of a female egg by a spermatozoon occurs only after 7-10 days. Or it may not come at all if, for some reason (for example, hormonal), the egg dies on the way to the uterus, or the endometrium in this organ is not ready, too thin to accept the future fetal egg. The ovum makes its journey in about a week. And during this period of time, no changes occur in the woman's body that could provoke signs of pregnancy in the first week after conception. So, nausea, vomiting, headache, fatigue, insomnia and depression - this is most likely from the tedious waiting for the resolution of the situation and the fear of the onset of the next menstruation.

But after successful implantation, you can already begin to carefully monitor your health. Approximately a week before the expected date of the onset of menstruation, hormonal changes begin to occur in the body, which affect the well-being and some external data of the expectant mother.

Hormonal changes

Let's start with hormones. After the implantation of the egg in the uterus, a special hormone begins to be produced in the mother's body, without which the bearing of the child would be impossible. And this hormone is called chorionic gonadotropin or hCG for short. Its main purpose in the first trimester is to maintain the viability of the corpus luteum, which secretes progesterone, with a shortage of which there is a threat of termination of pregnancy. In addition, in the English medical literature you can also find such a version - hCG protects the fetus in the early stages of development from the immune cells of its own mother. This applies to those situations when the maternal immune system rejects the fetus - in fact, the body is half alien to her. If hCG is normal, then this should not happen.

The detected chorionic gonadotropin is a sign of pregnancy in the first week after conception, more precisely after the first 7-10 days. You can determine this hormone by passing blood or urine tests - this is usually paid, if without a doctor's referral or just buy a test to perform at home. The latter option may not work if the test is of low sensitivity. One line before the delay is not at all an indicator of the next "fruitless" cycle, so it's too early to get upset. And sometimes it happens that a very pale steam strip appears on the test, but when you see it, you can say that signs of pregnancy have already appeared in the first week after implantation. The growth of human chorionic gonadotropin occurs exponentially, look at these minimum and maximum possible values:

  • 1 week - 5-50 (IU/l)
  • 2 weeks - 40-1000 2 weeks 40-1000
  • 3 weeks - 100-4000 3 weeks 100-4000

It is very important to monitor the growth dynamics for those ladies who have had unsuccessful pregnancies in the past, and especially those with localization outside the uterus. Often, signs of pregnancy in the first week, consisting in a too low level of the described hormone, may indicate a recurrence of the pathology. Gynecologists closely monitor such pregnancies.

On examination by a gynecologist

Literature is replete with calls for women to visit gynecologists as often as possible and, at the slightest suspicion of pregnancy, immediately go for a consultation. There are ladies who take these calls literally - they make an appointment when they notice signs of pregnancy in the first week. But what can a doctor advise and diagnose in this case, even if ultrasound examination no fetus in sight? The uterus can really be quite a bit enlarged, but this is also observed before the onset of menstruation ...

The maximum that you will receive is a pile of referrals for tests, standard for all those planning a pregnancy.

For women who do not have gynecological problems, we would advise you to spend this period in pleasant expectations. You can read interesting, positive literature for moms, find out where the next good courses for expectant mothers are, and not look for signs of pregnancy hourly in the first week after conception. In the end, not in this cycle, but in the next, everything will definitely work out. Do not forget that the woman's body does not work like a clock. You can not get with sexual intercourse on the day of ovulation and conception will not occur. In addition, ovulation in the fair sex does not happen every month.

You need to go to the doctor after the test shows positive result, in the presence of any ailments, well, or with a delay of more than 2 weeks.

Personal Feelings

The most expected sign of pregnancy in the first week after conception is toxicosis. But as we wrote at the beginning of this article, there can be no toxicosis at such an early stage in principle. You need to wait at least a couple of weeks after ovulation. Although, it must be borne in mind that these standard reactions do not happen to all expectant mothers. Nausea, and even more so vomiting, may not be at all. Some girls have signs of pregnancy in the first week after conception - this is fatigue for no particular reason, slight dizziness (due to drops blood pressure and the beginning of hormonal changes in the body).

The apogee of discomfort usually falls on 4-10 weeks, and after that it gradually fades to nothing. By the second trimester, a woman feels great.

Where does this phenomenon come from and what can be said about those women who have it and who do not? There is an assumption that in this way the body tries to protect the fetus from any negative influences. It's no secret that not all the food we eat is healthy and safe, and not all of it contains substances that are beneficial to the body. The mother's body may react with nausea to potentially dangerous and not desired products. On the other hand, frequent vomiting is much more dangerous than the food that did not enter the stomach, thanks to this cunning self-defense system.

Improving your physical condition, most often, is not a problem. It is enough to exclude from your diet foods that cause nausea, and the signs of pregnancy in the first week and subsequent ones will quietly disappear ...

Another interesting fact- Everyone knows that during pregnancy, the breast begins to prepare for the upcoming lactation, but not everyone knows that this happens from the very first weeks. That is why there are unpleasant sensations in the chest, sometimes yellowish and whitish discharge from the nipples appear - first with gentle pressure, and then involuntarily. It stands out colostrum - "pre-milk".

As for insomnia, it usually occurs due to nervous tension. You can restore your nerves with the help of folk remedies medicine. The best, safest and most effective is valerian tincture or tablets.

Be healthy and don't look too hard at your place signs of pregnancy in the first week after conception so that later there will be no disappointments ...

  • 10 How to determine the term of conception?

Our great-grandmothers tried to find out if conception occurred long before the delay of menstruation, listening to their bodies or trusting folk omens. ultra-precise medical diagnostics pregnancy arose closer to the beginning of 1960, when, based on the experimental findings of a German scientist, Dr. Zondek, the first test was created to determine the amount of hCG in a woman's urine. Therefore, until 1960, in gynecological offices, women were told about what the first signs of pregnancy could be after conception, warning that in some cases the alleged symptoms indicate diseases of the reproductive system.

Pain in the lower abdomen as a sign of pregnancy

Many women experience discomfort in the lower abdomen immediately after conception. These sensations can somehow resemble the pain observed before the onset of the next menstruation. Usually, the spasms described by the vast majority of pregnant women when they remember the beginning of their pregnancy are not associated with the growth of the uterus. This is a natural reaction of the body to the successful completion of conception. However, if the pain lasts more than 2 weeks, and menstruation does not occur, the likelihood of an ectopic pregnancy is high. In this case, it is necessary to consult a gynecologist who will make a transvaginal ultrasound to exclude the threat of spontaneous abortion or the abnormal position of the fetal egg.

Digestive dysfunction and pregnancy

Most often, the first signs of pregnancy after conception are associated with digestive system women. They should be taken seriously if conception occurred no earlier than a week ago before the onset of the following symptoms:

  • flatulence, accompanied by heaviness in the stomach;
  • heartburn;
  • rejection certain products and smells;
  • the desire to change your diet or add dishes with unexpected flavor combinations to it.

You can feel when conception has occurred only when the egg fertilized by the spermatozoon is embedded in the wall of the uterus. Until this moment, the hormonal background of a woman remains the same, therefore, it is not possible to find out the exact date of pregnancy based on observations of the work of the digestive system.

The psychological aspect of pregnancy

Women actively planning pregnancy, specifically calculate auspicious days for conception and therefore are in a tense psychological state. They try to explain the frequent changes in their mood by the onset of a long-awaited pregnancy. There is some truth in this: pregnant women are indeed in a difficult psychological state. Due to changes in the level of hormonal levels, you can feel that fertilization has taken place. The woman becomes very emotional. She feels sorry for herself, the cause of which may be a panic fear for her child or the irreversibility of future births (this condition is due to the fact that the pregnant woman is afraid of the birth process itself).

Soreness of the mammary glands: mastopathy or pregnancy?

The sure signs of pregnancy after conception are associated with changes in the mammary glands. About 90% of women in labor felt discomfort in the chest immediately after a possible conception. The mammary glands increase long before the first day of delayed menstruation (approximately 1.5 - 2 weeks). The chest becomes rounded. You can see how the areolas and nipples become wider, acquiring a rich brown hue. Thus, the breast begins to prepare for the future feeding of the baby.

Cystitis as a signal of pregnancy

The smallest period of pregnancy is very often accompanied by cystitis. The cause of inflammation of the bladder can be associated not only with changes that have occurred in the uterus (which at first resembles a chicken egg), but also with the restructuring of the whole organism. The immune system women is weakened. Therefore, until the very day of delivery, she may experience problems with urination, the cause of which may be infections. However, now cystitis is being treated safe antibiotics, which can be used even when the period is less than 7 weeks.

Increase in basal body temperature

Women who want to know when favorable days for conception come regularly measure their basal body temperature. This method is practiced by those for whom the date of birth is especially important. After all, some mothers tend to give birth to a child by a certain significant date: New Year, wedding anniversary or other important event. It is believed that a sharp increase in temperature indicates ovulation. If the temperature rises in the following days after ovulation, then conception has occurred. But if the conception took place, and the temperature does not rise, a woman can be diagnosed with a lack of progesterone, which often causes miscarriages.

Cold as a possible symptom of pregnancy

In the first days after conception, you can feel weakness, general malaise, fever. This condition is often accompanied by all the symptoms of acute respiratory infections: runny nose, cough, sore throat. This is how the body reacts to the changes that have occurred to it. Therefore, some women talk about the possible date of birth, counting the day of conception from the day of the cold, if the period coincides with the subsequent delay in menstruation. This condition is justified in the case when you can remember the approximate date of the onset of a cold.

Diagnosis by detecting hCG in the blood and urine of a woman

Long before childbirth, a woman's body produces a hormone - human chorionic gonadotropin. This hormone is produced in a matter of days after conception by the future placenta. This means that you can find out about the approximate date of pregnancy long before the first days of delayed menstruation pass. It is enough to determine the presence of hCG in the body (this can be done in three ways: buy a pregnancy test, do special analysis blood or urine). The most reliable result can be obtained if the period from the beginning of fertilization is 10 days. Some women, counting favorable days, do an hCG test immediately when they rise basal body temperature, however, such results can be questioned since the concentration of the hormone at first does not exceed the permissible level in the body of non-pregnant women.

Why you need to know about the first signs of pregnancy?

Not all women calculate the days of ovulation, because they use contraceptives or do not have a permanent sexual partner. Therefore, for them, the days of delaying the next menstruation come as a surprise. Not all pregnancy tests can show a reliable result. There were times when a woman found out that she had an impressive gestational age shortly before ... childbirth. Of course, it is difficult not to notice the movement of a child in the womb, but, as history shows, it is possible. So you need to know about the first symptoms possible pregnancy to help the doctor determine what the due date is. This is especially important for those women who have an irregular menstrual cycle and, therefore, the days of ovulation in each month may change.

How to determine the term of conception?

The possible term of conception is considered to be from the first day of the last menstruation. In the same way, the possible date of delivery is determined in order to prevent cases of over-term pregnancy or to determine the degree of prematurity in case of premature birth. The date of conception is calculated in two ways:

  1. 40 weeks or 280 days are added to the date of the first day of the last menstruation (having previously calculated the period for ovulation - 2 weeks).
  2. 3 months are counted from the first day of the last menstruation and a week is added to the received date.

By determining the term of conception, a woman will be able to protect herself and her baby. After all, many medicines, cosmetic procedures, methods of functional diagnostics are unacceptable in the period from the beginning of pregnancy to the birth itself. In addition, every woman must know her gestational age in order to have time to decide what she will do next. If a future mom works in a hazardous industry, she will have to quit so as not to endanger the life of her baby. In addition, she will be able to understand the cause of her malaise and cardinal changes in mood, which will make life easier not only for her, but also for the people around her.

Signs of pregnancy in the first days after conception

The medical literature states that the very first signs of pregnancy appear after a missed period. Until this time, there are no symptoms or they appear very weakly, so it is possible to know for sure whether pregnancy has occurred only 7-10 days after conception. Only after a week the woman's body begins to respond to changes. If your plans do not include becoming a mother, then a quick pregnancy determination will allow you to have an early abortion, which is considered safer for the female body and usually passes without consequences.

It is possible to determine pregnancy even before the delay of menstruation by indirect signs that appear after the fertilized egg has passed its way through the fallopian tube and is fixed on the wall of the uterus.

Do not forget that this does not happen in the first days, but only after a week. Therefore, all changes in the state of the body on the first or second day after intercourse can be attributed to other reasons that have nothing to do with conception.

The earliest signs of pregnancy:

1. Pain in the abdomen. Such discomfort can be caused by many factors, but sometimes they indicate a successful conception. If not blood secretions, then non-systematic pain in the abdomen can be ignored. Otherwise, you should immediately contact a gynecologist.

2. Problems with the stomach. Usually, women begin to realize that they are pregnant when they experience nausea, vomiting, flatulence, a strong reaction to smells, and other digestive problems. But only by these signs it is impossible to know whether pregnancy has occurred, since digestive tract disorders can be caused by other reasons, for example, infectious disease or poisoning.

3. Enlargement of the mammary glands. Usually these signs appear in the second trimester of pregnancy, but in some women they can appear much earlier - 7-11 days after conception. But an increase in the mammary glands can also be associated with breast pathologies, so it is recommended to do an ultrasound scan and visit a gynecologist.

4. Increased urination. In early pregnancy, a woman's body increases the concentration of the hormone progesterone, which relaxes the sphincter of the bladder, leading to more frequent urination. But it is not possible to find out about the onset of pregnancy, relying only on this symptom, since another possible cause frequent urination is cystitis.

5. Sudden mood changes. Some women may suddenly develop depression or stress. If premenstrual syndrome has not been observed before, then changes in mood can be one of the early signs of pregnancy.

All these symptoms must be considered in combination, it is almost impossible to learn about early pregnancy using only one of them. It is necessary that at least 2-3 signs are confirmed.

It is possible to say exactly whether pregnancy has occurred or not by a blood test for hCG, it is done even before the delay in menstruation, starting from the tenth day after the probable conception. Chorionic gonadotropin in a woman's blood is the only true early sign of pregnancy that can be seen in the early stages.

To prevent an unwanted pregnancy, a woman is advised to use emergency contraception, which prevents sperm from fertilizing an egg. Such drugs are taken only in case of unprotected intercourse, there are other methods for permanent contraception.

The first signs of pregnancy - at what time, symptoms

At what time do signs of pregnancy begin to appear? And how to determine if fertilization has occurred? The answers to these questions are of particular interest to women who have decided or really dream of having a baby.

At what time do the first signs of pregnancy appear?

Usually, the first symptoms of pregnancy appear 10 days after conception, because already 7 days after fertilization, serious hormonal changes occur in the female body, and you can feel them yourself. Therefore, knowing the exact date of ovulation and giving Special attention to her well-being, a woman will be able to notice the signs of the onset of pregnancy. This may be excessive emotionality - tearfulness, capriciousness, increased irritability, etc.

Regardless of the gestational age, in each case, expectant mothers have individual feelings, but there are also general ones that most women experience. Not the last role here is played by the characteristics of the body, the state of health and even the desire to get pregnant (in fact, as well as the lack of it). Therefore, it is difficult to unequivocally answer at what time the signs of pregnancy will appear exactly.

10 signs of early pregnancy

As mentioned above, the body of the expectant mother begins to respond to pregnancy as soon as conception has occurred, or rather, as soon as the fertilized egg has attached to the wall of the uterus. Therefore, certain signs may appear already in the early stages - they most likely make it possible to assert the onset of pregnancy. However, it is worth noting that many women do not feel any changes at all, but those who really want to get pregnant are able to find signs of pregnancy in themselves, even if there really is none.

So, 10 signs of pregnancy on early stage, which even before the delay will help determine that you will soon become a mother. It is important to understand that the appearance of one or two of them is not a reason to run to the doctor. You need to assess your condition in the aggregate, according to several criteria.

1. Spotting. Approximately 6-12 days after ovulation, bloody, pinkish or brown discharge from the vagina may appear, accompanied by slight pulling pains in the lower abdomen. They feel very much like the onset of menstruation, but, nevertheless, the woman is visited by the thought that menstruation does not begin as usual. This so-called implantation bleeding, caused by the attachment of the fetal egg to the wall of the uterus, is one of the earliest signs of pregnancy;

2. Increase in basal temperature. Among the 10 signs of pregnancy, this is one of the most reliable. Women leading a temperature chart are well aware that basal temperature rises at the time of ovulation. And if fertilization does not occur, it decreases again. However, when pregnancy occurs, it remains at 37 ° C (sometimes a little higher);

3. Feeling of general malaise, accompanied by fever. Such a change entails a change in the hormonal background. Not knowing about the onset of pregnancy, the woman thinks that she just caught a cold or got sick;

4. Feeling of heaviness in the pelvic region. During pregnancy, blood flow to the pelvic organs increases, so women can “feel” their uterus literally from the first days of implantation of the fetal egg;

5. Increasing the sensitivity of the breast or swelling of the mammary glands. This sign of pregnancy appears one to two weeks after conception. The chest becomes so sensitive that sometimes it is simply impossible to touch it. However, some women, on the contrary, are surprised that for some reason the chest does not hurt before menstruation, as usual;

6. Nausea, vomiting, aversion to smells. Early toxicosis is one of the first signs of the onset of pregnancy. This condition can also be accompanied by a decrease in appetite, salivation, a change in taste preferences;

7. Frequent urination. Frequent urges are due to hormonal changes that accompany pregnancy. As blood flow to the pelvic organs increases, overflow blood vessels causes temporary changes in the functioning of the kidneys, bladder and ureters;

8. Slight pressure drop. This sign of pregnancy is considered universal. In women whose pressure before pregnancy did not exceed the norm, it can lead to headaches, dizziness, weakness, fainting;

9. Bloating, indigestion, gases. During pregnancy, as a result of hormonal changes, the blood supply to the vessels increases. abdominal cavity, intestinal peristalsis slows down, the rate of movement of its contents decreases. As a result of this, bloating occurs, constipation appears;

10. Profuse vaginal discharge, thrush. An increase in vaginal secretion is a protective reaction of the body that occurs during pregnancy. So it prevents the penetration of pathogenic microbes, but at the same time creates favorable conditions for the reproduction of yeast fungi, which leads to thrush.

The first signs of pregnancy after a delay

Of course, the first clear sign of pregnancy is the cessation of menstruation. It is this fact that prompts a woman to buy a pregnancy test. However, monthly bleeding may be absent various reasons, including due to menstrual irregularities, stress, climate change, any disease, and even due to banal overwork. Therefore, the delay is not always early symptom pregnancy. But if it is accompanied by some other signs, it is possible to assert almost one hundred percent about the onset of pregnancy.

The first signs of pregnancy after a delay include:

  • Breast augmentation. Sometimes this symptom is accompanied by the discharge of colostrum from the nipples. This is explained, again, by hormonal changes in the female body, which begins to actively prepare for the upcoming birth and lactation;
  • The presence of hCG (chorionic gonadotropin) in the urine and blood. All pregnancy tests are based on determining the level of this particular hormone in the urine, and a clinical blood test can confirm it. More reliable, of course, is considered a blood test. You can do it as early as 10 days after the estimated date of conception. By the way, it is not necessary to wait for a delay in menstruation;
  • Enlargement of the uterus. True, only a gynecologist can determine this during an examination carried out no earlier than 2-3 weeks after the onset of the delay. However, it is this symptom that is the reason for the diagnosis of "pregnancy in question" and the appointment of an ultrasound examination;
  • Detection of the fetal egg on ultrasound. Even with total absence any signs of the onset of pregnancy, this method allows you to make sure that the woman is in position. Only here to do an ultrasound to get more accurate results, it is recommended at least 6 weeks after the delay in menstruation.

In any case, your assumptions must be confirmed either by a test or by the results of an examination by a gynecologist. Then you can safely say that soon you will become a mother! Smile and tune in to positive emotions!

Pregnancy is a special time for a woman. Many representatives of the weaker sex passionately want to have children and are waiting for the first symptoms to appear, indicating the presence of life inside them. Many begin to think about pregnancy only after a delay in menstruation, but there are facts that testify to it a little earlier.

When do the first symptoms of pregnancy appear and how to recognize them?

On what day can you notice pregnancy?

It is impossible to say the exact time, because the body of each woman is unique and sometimes can live “its own life”. The health factor should also not be ruled out. Depending on the individual indicators, the symptoms of pregnancy can become noticeable for a woman already within 8-10 days after the fertilization of the egg.

There were times when a woman quickly realized that she was pregnant. This happened already 2-3 days after ovulation. Such cases arise due to the clear operation of the self-hypnosis mechanism. This is especially true for girls who have a strong desire to become a mother. Knowing the symptoms that accompany pregnant women, a woman can subconsciously inspire herself with this condition.

Such cases do not exclude pregnancy, but so far it has not been confirmed. If conception did occur, then this will become clear with time. More often, it happens that the symptoms of pregnancy do not appear clearly until a week after sex on the “ideal” day for conception.

Pregnancy symptoms noticeable a week after conception

Not all cases are the same and some will not notice the signs we list after a week of waiting for pregnancy.

  • Bleeding from the vagina- a phenomenon that a pregnant woman will face first of all. Do not think that the discharge in this case is a violation of the menstrual cycle. Bleeding of this kind is called implantation. They indicate the fixation of the embryo on the wall of the uterus. The discharge, which has a characteristic pinkish color, does not have a large volume and is accompanied painful sensations. Implantation bleeding lasts for several hours, a day or a little longer. Sometimes this time passes without vaginal bleeding, so the absence of discharge during the week after ovulation does not indicate the absence of pregnancy.
  • Pain in the chest area can be attributed to factors indicating pregnancy during the first week after fertilization or a little later. Already 7-10 days after conception, some women feel hypersensitivity and firmness of the chest. The nipples also become sensitive, in some cases secreting drops of colostrum and becoming dark.
  • Nausea and vomiting are symptoms of pregnancy that occur during most of the gestation period. Some cases confirm that these signs can be clearly manifested as early as a week after fertilization of the egg.

How to make sure in the early stages that pregnancy has come?

If a woman notices atypical body behavior within a week or a little more after ovulation, then she can take certain measures to be sure. You can do a blood test for hCG a week after intercourse. In urine, the presence of hCG is observed a few days later than in the blood. The test should be purchased within 10-12 days after the expected moment of conception. It is better to use it in the morning, since at this time the concentration of hCG in the composition of the urine is maximum. Ultrasound scanning in early pregnancy will not help, because it is carried out two weeks after the delay in menstruation.

When do the first signs of pregnancy appear that cannot be overlooked? You can talk about pregnancy with full confidence only after a delay in menstruation. This is the first sign of conception that occurs in every woman without exception and encourages her to take a pregnancy test. Among the first reliable signs indicating that the girl will soon become a mother are symptoms that appear from the fifth week of pregnancy, that is, after the delay.

Among them:

  • Toxicosis. Nausea and vomiting in the morning will not make you doubt that the pregnancy has come;
  • Emotional instability. An increase in mood or, conversely, tearfulness. Such "swings" only confirm the status of "Pregnant";
  • Frequent urination;
  • Sleep disturbance;
  • Drawing pains in the lower abdomen. Unpleasant spasms can occur from time to time due to uterine contractions. This is a natural process and has nothing to do with miscarriage. It is worth thinking about its danger in the case when spasms intensify and are accompanied by blood secretions;
  • Change in appetite. The composition of saliva changes and even the taste of foods may seem somewhat unusual. A pregnant woman sometimes begins to love what she hated before. This confirms the fact of pregnancy.

Although the first signs of conception of the fetus appear a week after ovulation, some women may simply not notice them, especially if pregnancy is not expected. When a girl really wants to become a mother, the opposite can happen - any change in the body, not even related to conception, can be interpreted as a symptom of pregnancy.

But the first signs of pregnancy, which you can really focus on, appear after a delay in menstruation.
