What happens to pelvic pain at 37 weeks of pregnancy


Guiding you to a healthier path.
In the third trimester of pregnancy, the fetus gradually enlarges, and as the gestational age increases, the fetal head presses toward the pelvic entrance. Due to the external force, the pubic symphysis in the pelvis can be slightly displaced and cause pain. Therefore, most pelvic pain is caused by the fetal head entering the pelvis. In general, pelvic pain, if not serious, does not affect the placement of pregnant women's delivery posture, most of them do not affect vaginal delivery, and in postpartum pelvic pain, most of them can alleviate or even disappear by themselves. If a pregnant woman shows pelvic pain at 37 weeks of pregnancy, accompanied by paroxysmal abdominal pain, then it is possible to show contractions, which is a precursor to labor and requires a hospital examination.
