The earliest early signs of pregnancy

Early pregnancy detection is important for every woman. There can be two reasons: either to interrupt it — abortion (this difficult decision may be due to various factors, starting with a life position and ending with physiological indicators), or for an early appeal to an antenatal clinic in order to preserve and maintain the development of intrauterine life. The female body is designed for conception, gestation and delivery. Every month, like clockwork, he prepares for the great mystery of nature — conception. Fertilization occurs during ovulation — at the moment when a mature egg enters the fallopian tube, meets with the sperm and merges. This gives rise to the wonderful process of pregnancy. But only your body does not yet know about this, and will not know for at least seven more days, until the resulting ovum as a result of fusion attaches to the walls of the uterus. Our body is quite contradictory: on the one hand, everything is aimed at maintaining intrauterine life, and on the other hand, the embryo is perceived by it as a foreign body, from which the body wants to get rid of. Here pregnancy hormones come to the aid of the fetus, primarily progesterone. It is he who will prepare your uterus for the adoption of the ovum and hold the attached embryo. At the same time, the synthesis of hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) begins. This is a special hormone that is an integral part of pregnancy. It is produced by the cells of the membrane of the embryo. It appears in the body at the earliest stages of pregnancy (5-6 days from the moment of fertilization) and its content in the blood increases exponentially every day. In urine, the content of this hormone increases a few days later and also increases day after day. That is, with the help of a blood test, the doctor can diagnose the onset of pregnancy at the earliest possible date. But all these processes occur without the knowledge of the woman and the very first signal to think about your position is the menstrual delay. This is the first reason to go for a rapid pregnancy test. Their work is based on the determination of the hCG hormone in the urine. It is better to do it in the morning, since it is at this time that the hormone reaches its maximum concentration. There are also a number of pregnancy symptoms that women, often before delay, do not pay attention to: heaviness, soreness and swelling of the breasts, headaches, increased fatigue, mood swings, someone may be drawn to something salty, sour, or taste preferences can generally change , and toxicosis may occur at the earliest stages.
