3-Uterine Contractions
Groin pain is a very common complaint during pregnancy. Most of the time, it is due to the growth of the uterus and is a normal situation during pregnancy. Many expectant mothers experience mild groin pain lasting 10-15 seconds in the first 6-8 weeks of pregnancy. Especially in first pregnancies, groin pain begins in the earlier months and is felt more. In subsequent pregnancies, groin pain sometimes occurs only in the last months of pregnancy due to excessive growth and weight of the abdomen and the onset of contractions in the uterus.
Sometimes, in the second or third month of pregnancy, a sharp, stabbing pain may be felt in the groin area. This pain may suddenly intensify with movement or sudden standing up. The cause of this pain is the stretching of the ligaments around the uterus due to the enlargement of the uterus. Also, rarely during pregnancy, extreme pain may occur in the pelvis joints. With excessive relaxation due to hormones, severe pain may occur in the roof bone joint. In the last months of pregnancy, false labor pains (Braxton-Hicks contractions) may cause abdominal pain. These contractions are distinguished from real labor pains by being irregular and mild in intensity and relieved by rest and painkillers. If contractions are frequent and severe and do not go away, a doctor should be consulted. Real labor pains can be a sign of labor.
