One sperm and one egg meet each other and become a fertilized egg, and the fertilized egg becomes an embryo, and the embryo grows to become a fetus, and the fetus grows up and becomes a human being.
Menstrual cycle Changes in the inner wall of the uterus according to the menstrual cycle, growth and ovulation of follicles, formation of the corpus luteum, changes in the blood concentration of female hormones according to the menstrual cycle, changes in female body temperature according to menstruation and ovulation, and the size of the cervix according to the menstrual cycle.
Changes (examples of menstruation in women with a menstrual cycle of 28 days) Source-Pregnancy in Anatomical Illustrations, Carnation Healthcare Services, Los Angeles, CA and From Pregnancy to Newborn Care (Edited by the author) It is common to menstruate every 4 weeks (28 days). However, they may menstruate in one cycle for as little as 3 weeks and as long as 5 weeks.
Among the various physical changes that occur in the early stages of pregnancy, the most remarkable change is that menstruation that was performed periodically before pregnancy is no longer menstrual after the scheduled menstruation date has elapsed.
It is not an exaggeration to think that a young, healthy, heterosexual woman who does not menstruate after 10 days or more from the scheduled menstruation date is pregnant.
If she seems to be pregnant, she should diagnose menstruation by urinalysis at home with a pregnancy test kit, or go to a hospital and have a urine or blood pregnancy test to determine whether she is pregnant early or not.
Occasionally, some pregnant women can bleed a little from the uterus even after pregnancy, even though nothing is wrong. This uterine bleeding is called ‘pseudomenstruation’.
Pseudomenstruation is not so common.
However, it is almost always abnormal to see even a small amount of blood from the uterus during pregnancy.
If there is any bleeding from the uterus during pregnancy, or if the vaginal discharge is abnormal and smells bad, you should contact your doctor immediately and receive treatment according to the cause.
Even if you are not pregnant, if a woman has a neuropsychiatric or physical illness, such ailments can skip her menstruation once or twice.
Also, when malnutrition becomes severe, When you are severely anxious, sad, or mentally shocked by a problem, When you are extremely tired or weak from work, When a small change occurs in daily life, such as wherever you go on a trip Or when you have an imaginary pregnancy She may menstruate shortly after her scheduled menstruation date, miss menstruation once or twice, and sometimes not menstruate for several months.
For this reason, just because she is not menstruating even after her scheduled menstruation date has passed, it cannot be concluded that she is pregnant.
