Six months pregnant vaginal pain

Although the ten months of pregnancy is not very accurate, the difference is not that big. We generally divide the pregnancy into three periods: early, middle and late. In the second half of pregnancy, which is about 6 months, the characteristics of pregnancy are very obvious and the fetus is growing vigorously. However, it is also from this period that various problems of pregnant women gradually become apparent. As the fetus grows, the uterus will sag and compress the pelvic cavity, which in turn involves the genitals, causing occasional genital pain starting from the 6th month of pregnancy.

1. Vulvar ulcer: Vulvar pain may be caused by vulvar ulcer, which is mainly caused by not paying attention to cleanliness and hygiene, and may also be caused by bacterial and viral infections. Women have poor immune function and more secretions during pregnancy. To do a good job of cleaning the vulva, you need to wash the vulva correctly and choose cotton underwear to reduce the friction of clothing on local skin, otherwise it is easy to cause skin damage.

2. Vulvitis : Women's genital pain may also be caused by vulvitis. Bacterial and viral infections are the main causes of vulvitis. Women should pay attention to proper cleaning of the vulva to reduce the stimulation of secretions to the vulva. Women should exercise appropriately during pregnancy to improve the body's disease resistance. During pregnancy, they should pay more attention to their physical health and do a good job of pregnancy checkups.

3. Clothing friction: Vulvar pain may be caused by clothing friction. Try to choose cotton underwear with good breathability, and change underwear frequently during pregnancy. Try to choose loose underwear and don't wear clothes that are too tight, otherwise it will cause friction on the genital skin, which can easily cause damage to the genital skin and cause pain. Women should choose comfortable and loose clothes during pregnancy.

4. Physiological reactions of pregnancy

Some women feel swelling in the vulva a few months after pregnancy, with local redness of the skin and severe pain in the vulva when walking. This phenomenon is clinically known as "varicose veins of the vulva". The uterus of a pregnant woman shoulders a heavy responsibility and requires a large amount of blood supply, which increases the blood flow in the pelvic veins and internal iliac veins, causing the pressure in the veins to increase, causing the thin-walled veins in the vulva and inner thighs to expand abnormally. In addition, as the fetus grows gradually, the uterus also grows accordingly in the pelvic cavity, which can easily compress the veins and hinder blood return, causing congestion and leading to varicose veins. Furthermore, the concentration of estrogen in the blood increases rapidly during pregnancy, causing the venous walls to relax and resulting in varicose veins in the vulva.
