After spotting in late pregnancy, there is a dull pain in the lower abdomen like menstruation

After spotting in the late pregnancy, abdominal pain is like menstruation, which may be caused by physiological factors, false labor, threatened labor, etc., and can be relieved by adjusting lifestyle and delivery.

1. Physiological factors: In the late pregnancy, the fetus tends to mature, and the increase in fetal weight may cause the uterus to expand, rub other organs around the uterus, and cause traction pain. This is a normal physiological phenomenon and generally does not require treatment. It can be relieved by proper rest.

2. False uterine contractions: Late pregnancy can make the uterus sensitive. Under the influence of external factors such as colds and changes in posture, the uterine smooth muscle is stimulated to contract, causing false contractions, accompanied by hardness and tightness in the lower abdomen. It can be relieved by Lamaze breathing, hot compresses and changing sleeping postures.

3. Premature labor: In the late pregnancy, the fetus may be about to be delivered. The descent of the fetus stimulates the smooth muscle of the uterus, causing uterine contraction pain, accompanied by abdominal pain, vaginal discharge, increased urination, etc. Under the guidance of the doctor, the pregnant woman is promoted to enter the delivery process and deliver smoothly.

In addition to the common causes mentioned above, it may also be caused by intestinal spasm. Pregnant women are advised to seek medical attention in time, identify the cause, and receive targeted treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
