Abdominal cramps can indicate pregnancy, Ovulation, approaching period & UTI. Vaginal cramps is most likely caused by a yeast infection.
What is water around the outside of the womb is it dangerous?
Not sure what water you are talking about and I see the question was asked in May so maybe you already got the answer. If you know there's water outside the womb that means you have been to a doctor and he must be able to answer this since he saw it.
Not sure what you mean but water inside the womb during pregnancy is called amniotic fluid.
If you've had unprotected sex then you can be pregnant.

It's possible! if you had intercourse 2 weeks ago, it's possible you concieved and are starting to feel a few pregnancy symptoms, I recommend taking a home pregnancy test. if you get a negative and your period becomes late, I would recommend testing again. Good Luck ~pawsalmighty yes, i did, take the test, ClearBlue is an early detection, take that one.
Yes and no. When I was pregnant I experienced some discharge. This is just caused by your body collecting stuff for your mucas plug. It is normal. Now the cramping is somewhat normal. Depending upon how severe the cramps are and if you are having any bleeding, you might want to talk to your OB. There is a medical term for some of those craps and it is called braxton hicks. The cramps are similar to the cramps you have when you go into labor. You are probably not in laor but it would be wise to tell your OB that you are havign these cramps. Do not hide anything from them.
You may be pregnant go take an at home test or see your doctor for a blood test to see whats going on hope this helps, Good Luck and God Bless!!!
Answer I was at my gynocologist and he said it can only be ligament pains, but it is really bad and I want to know if anyone else has experienced this. Oh boy, I bet half the women you know have had these pains. Sometimes they are at the front and sometimes they appear as back pain. They are just the ligaments softening so the pelvis can stretch a little when the baby is born. Sometimes it feels as though the two sides of the pelvis are rubbung together. Apregnancy girdle can help support the pelvis, or you can see a physical therapist who may give you a belt. Your partners leather belt tightened under the bump may also help.
Do you have bad abdominal pain and back pain with a tubal pregnancy?
I had a tubal preg & yes my back was killing me & it felt like I needed to have a bowel movement all the time. I was 3mths before I went to the emergency room & my tube had ruptured, so if you think that you are you need to go immediately because you could be bleeding enternally & not know it. Hi, Yes you do have severe pain with tubal and etopic pregnancies. If you suspect you have a tubal then go to A&E now as tubals are dangerous. Good luck.
If you are a week late for your period I would not get too emotional about being pregnant yet. Sore breats and cramps are often par for the course for women menstrating. If your period normally comes at the same time every month and is odd to have a change in your cycle I would think about consulting a doctor. Other factor to consider are Have you recently had unprotected intercourse? have you recently been experienceing a large amout of stress? Have you had a change of life situation? Often when women move in with other women their menstural cycles change to " fall in time with each other". Stress can delay your cycle. Rember the power of sugestion is a poweful thing. If you feel you may have reason to expect you are pregnant you should consult a doctor as soon as you can to have a test done. You can also purchase a over the counter preg. test. Sometimes these test are helpful to set you mind at ease. If you are a week late for your period I would not get too emotional about being pregnant yet.

No. In order to have had an miscarriage there would be blood and a big blood clot involved....trust me if you expierenced an miscarriage you wouldn't be asking the internet you would be in an emergency room,because it's too OBVIOUS to ignore. Hope this helps you and this messgae finds you in good peace and health for you and your baby......
I am 32 weeks pregnant and i have cramps in my stomach - that comes and goes - is this normal?
Yes, it is normal. What you are experiencing may be Braxton-Hicks contractions. These contractions are "practice" for the real thing. If you are experiencing period-like cramping, you should call your doctor. If those cramps become regular (time them) or if your water breaks, go to the hospital.
Is Lower back pain and cramping during early pregnancy normal?
It's not just common, it's practically a requirement! But it'll be worse pretty soon from carrying all that extra weight in front of you. Good luck! Yes, it is quite common. And, unfortunately to tell you, it is probably not going to get any better. If it seems to unbearable at times, you should contact your doctor about certain medications that he/she approves of, or going to a chiropractor( but make sure the chiropractor knows you are pregnant).
Can you be pregnant at47 2missed periods?
It is very common to get pregnant at that age, however, the rate of a successful pregnancy at age 47 is risky. Usually, but not always, the later a woman waits to get pregnant, your OBGYN, will want to watch you closely to check for almost everything. If you are the type of person to get your period every month, on time, at the same time every month, I would definitely suspect pregnancy, also, many periods can stop due to hormonal change, onset of stress/depression and several other contributing factors, but I would definitely check with your doctor.
Is it normal for the cramping to stop during early pregnancy?
Yes. Cramping during early pregnancy comes and goes.
You can only get pregnant during ovulation. But all women ovulate at different times. But it's usually about two weeks before starting your period. So on average the chances of you getting pregnant just after your period are pretty slim. But you may ovulate on a different cycle than the average woman.
In response to Leslie:
It is NOT true that you can get pregnant only when you are ovulating. It is true however that many women differ in cycles. Most women with a 28 day cycle will ovulate on days 12-17, depending on their body. The first day of your last period being the Day 1. You ovulate for 2 days. BUT there is a 6 day time span before that you are still very fertile. Not AS fertile, but still very much. and 2 days after you ovulate there is still a slim chance of fertilization. So over all you are not ok to have unprotected sex from days 6-19. That is if you have a 28 day cycle. Your best bet is to calender your specific cycle. Otherwise it is not safe. And its true that sperm can live in you for 3-5 days.
basically, yes, it is possible. although not likely, it can happen because it is possible to have an early ovulation.
You sure can! I am currently 6 weeks pregnant and I got pregnant very shortly after my period. My period started on December 27th and I stopped bleeding around the 30th. I had one act of unprotected sex with my husband on New Years Eve (about two days after I had stopped bleeding) and BAM I'm pregnant! Needless to say it was a surprise, but a good surprise. I guess I have an irregular cycle with early ovulation - I never knew!
Absolutely you can!!! You can ovulate early. Some do. And lets not forget that sperm can live in you for about 3 days. I have even read on the net for 3-5 days. So you may ovulate a bit away from your period but if there is still live sperm in you it could meet that egg and boom, a baby!
Yes. Having done some internet research I actually found out that there are rare occassions when sperm lives up to 7 days after ejaculation in the woman (based on unusual pregnancies). Every woman is different and there is always the chance of sexual activity causing irregularities if you are very young or you don't have sex often. That's how it was for me. The cramping could also be from a cyst, so an ultrasound could tell most likely.
A negative test could also be the result of a phantom pregnancy. A phantom pregnancy is where you basically fool your mind and body into thinking it is pregnant. You will still experience pregnancy symptoms but you are not actually pregnant; it is al psychological Some women have even been able to lactate during a phantom pregnacny. The causes of a phantom pregnancy are either paranoia of being pregnant or having an extreme desire to become pregnant. There are several things that can contribute to a negative pregnancy test even if you are pregnant. Some medications can give you a false negative, the timing of the test can affect the results. If you did not follow directions properly; if you let the test sit for too long the results may read negative after a while. It is important to read the results within the amount of time given on the instructions of that particular pregnancy test you bought. If you did not perform the test properly (example: you drank a lot of fluids before taking the test, which can dilute your urine). Etc On rare occasions you can encounter a false positive due to improper testing, expired pregnancy tests, rare medical conditions such as certain types of cancer, evaporation lines, a recent pregnancy or a chemical pregnancy. To ensure the best results: Take the test in the morning, if possible, because your hCG (pregnancy hormone) levels are at it's highest Don't drink a bunch of fluids before taking the test because it will dilute your urine and can affect the results Take the test no more than 1 day before expected period. Although some test say that you can see results up to 5 days before your missed period, the percentage of accuracy is very low. urinate for as long as possible on the foam-like strip Check the results in the window frame of time suggested by the instructions of the pregnancy test.
