The tone until the twenty -eighth week is considered a real threat of miscarriage, and only when it passes more than 28 weeks to talk about it as the risk of the beginning of premature birth.

Unfortunately, the uterine tone is diagnosed in 60% of pregnant women, but doctors try to do everything possible to exclude all the possible causes of its manifestation:

Uterine tone in the first trimester of pregnancy

The three -layer muscles enveloping the uterus are intertwined very tightly. Such interweaving allows the muscle to hold the uterus tightly in case of overvoltage.

The tone indicates the presence of problems in the body, since the fetus is very small and is unlikely to stretch the walls of the uterus somehow.

In the early stages of pregnancy, namely in the first trimester, the tone of the uterus can appear from the smallest experiences and unrest. Stress is far from the only reason.

Physical activity, even the most minimal, provokes tone. It is not rare, simple abstinence and the inability to go to the toilet also provoke muscle contractions.

Why is the uterine hypertonicity dangerous during pregnancy?
