Now all you have to do is delve into the discovery of the main information on false menstruation.
What does a false period look like during pregnancy?
Women who found themselves thinking, “ It looked like my period but it was actually pregnancy, ” mistook so-called implantation bleeding for menstrual flow.
This blood loss is caused by the rupture of small capillaries following the implantation of the blastocyst, the stage of human life immediately above the embryo, in the mother's uterus.
Here's what they look like:
Their intensity is similar to that of spotting. They are therefore very light.
The duration is shorter than the average menstrual flow.
The mother experiences sensations that usually do not occur during the flow. Some examples? The feeling of nausea and changes in the breast that do not go away after a few days.
Without the test, however, there is no certainty about the beginning of the pregnancy.
