Preliminary judgment of pregnancy
After having sex, female friends sometimes worry about whether they are pregnant, but they don’t want to go to the hospital or don’t know how to judge. Here are some preliminary judgment methods.
Observe the menstrual cycle
A woman’s menstrual cycle usually lasts about 28 days. If it exceeds the expected menstrual time, you need to consider whether you are pregnant. However, there are also some women whose menstrual cycles are irregular. At this time, other methods need to be used to judge.
Pay attention to physical changes
If symptoms such as breast tenderness, nausea and vomiting occur, it may also be a sign of pregnancy. However, these symptoms may also be related to other causes, so judgment needs to be combined with other methods.
Using medication to detect pregnancy
If the above methods cannot determine whether you are pregnant, you can consider using drugs for testing.
Pregnancy test paper
Pregnancy test strips are a common test that can be done at home. The method of use is to put the test paper into the urine, wait for a certain period of time and observe the result. However, it should be noted that some drugs and diseases can also affect the accuracy of the results.
Serum β-HCG detection
Serum β-HCG testing is a more accurate testing method and needs to be carried out in the hospital. Pregnancy is tested by taking a blood sample. However, it should be noted that this method is time and money consuming.
Go to the hospital to check whether you are pregnant
If none of the above methods can determine whether you are pregnant, it is best to go to the hospital for a check-up.
Gynecological examination
The doctor can determine whether you are pregnant through a gynecological examination and conduct a comprehensive physical examination.
B-ultrasound examination
B-ultrasound is also a common examination method, which can determine pregnancy at an early stage and can also observe fetal development.
Notes and misunderstandings
You need to pay attention to the following matters and misunderstandings when making judgments:
Pay attention to drug side effects and error rates: Some drugs and diseases will affect the accuracy of the results and need to be understood clearly before use.
Don’t blindly diagnose yourself: IfIf you are unable to determine whether you are pregnant, it is best to go to the hospital for an examination to avoid misdiagnosis.
In short, multiple methods need to be combined when making judgments, and precautions and misunderstandings need to be paid attention to. If pregnancy is confirmed, you should consult a doctor in time and take relevant health care measures.
