What happens to the uterus during early pregnancy?

The uterus during early pregnancy is undergoing rapid changes. Changes include growth and increased blood flow to support growing embryo. These changes are responsible for some of the common symptoms of early pregnancy. Uterus is slightly larger in women who have been pregnant in the past or are currently pregnant. It fits into the pan and is protected by hair by bones. At the end of pregnancy, it will increase to approximately 1,000 times higher than its usual size. The uterde is made of tissue of smooth muscle lined with glands. Already in the third week of pregnancy or one week of pregnancy, the growth begins. This growth exerts pressure on the bladder and causes more frequent urination. The uterine growth can also cause cramps, similar to during the menstrual period. Severe cramps, especially if it is accompanied by a stern and increasingly severe bleeding, can signal abortion.

The uterus during early pregnancy gains more blood vessels. This allows nutrition to switch to the child and the placenta. Blood flow also increases in existing bloodthe blood vessels. Elastic tissue in the walls of the uterus is also increasing.

muscle fibers that form the uterus, softened due to the action of hormones of estradiol and progesterone. This change in the uterus during early pregnancy allows future growth. It also allows greater contractual force, which is later needed to exclude the fetus.

ties that promote the stretch of the uterus to suit growth. They also increase in diameter. This sometimes feels like sharp pain in the lower abdomen.

slight contractions of "practice", called Braxton Hicks contraction, start as early as the sixth week of pregnancy. This effect of the uterus during early pregnancy CAN does not feel much later during pregnancy and can cause false work. These contractions are important for preparing the uterus muscle for work.

The uterine glands increase secretions. These form mucus, plug in the uterus, opening of the uterus. This accumulation of mucus prevents bacteria fromEnter the uterus from the vagina. It is excluded only several weeks before work.

Sometimes an unhealthy or abnormal uterus occurs when pregnancy occurs. If the previous uterine surgery has occurred, adhesion may develop. This may have extreme pain as the uterus grows. During ultrasound examination, fibroids may be discovered by benign uterus tumors. During pregnancy, they usually do not present problems, but need to be carefully monitored.
