A faint red color in early pregnancy

If the two-child policy is vigorously developed, many older mothers will want to have a second child. For older mothers, giving birth and pregnancy is a very dangerous, scary or happy thing. However, during pregnancy, female friends must pay attention to their physical health. So let’s find out what the faint red color in early pregnancy means.

Light red vaginal discharge in early pregnancy usually indicates bleeding in the female reproductive organs, which may be caused by physiological or pathological reasons.

1. Physiological reasons:

This is usually caused by implantation bleeding. When the fertilized egg implants, the placenta fails to synthesize enough estrogen and progesterone, and the ovaries continue to function. The endometrium (decidua pericyta) attached to the placenta and covering the surface of the blastocyst is not completely fused with the true decidua on the surface of the uterine cavity that is not in direct contact with the blastocyst, resulting in a gap. Therefore, the endometrium can still fall off and bleeding may occur. The amount of bleeding during implantation of the fertilized egg is very small, usually manifested as blood streaks or blood spots in the leucorrhea. This is a normal physiological phenomenon. If the pregnant woman has no obvious discomfort and the amount of bleeding is not much, there is no need to worry too much.

2. Pathological causes:

If a pregnant woman has had excessive and unclean sexual life, does not pay attention to menstrual protection, has too many births, too frequent miscarriages, does not receive timely treatment after infection, or has cervical injury during delivery or miscarriage, these factors can all cause cervicitis, which will lead to damage to the reproductive system and bleeding, resulting in blood in the leucorrhea. Pregnant women with these conditions are advised to undergo timely examination and treatment to avoid affecting the fetus.

There are many reasons for the pinkish vaginal discharge during pregnancy. If an individual cannot tell which cause it is, once bleeding is found during pregnancy, he or she should seek medical attention in time, find out the cause and receive targeted treatment.
