I arranged to have sex during the ovulation period, but as a result, I developed symptoms of bloating in my lower abdomen. What's going on? Let’s explore it.

Symptoms of abdominal distention may include abdominal discomfort, pain, bloating, or contractions. These symptoms usually appear within a few days after the sperm unites with the egg, but may last several days or longer.

Some people may feel that the symptoms of bloating in the lower abdomen are caused by the implantation of a fertilized egg. When a fertilized egg implants, a woman's body undergoes some changes that may cause abdominal discomfort or pain. In addition, when a fertilized egg implants, a woman's body will also release some hormones, which may cause symptoms of abdominal distension.

If you feel symptoms of bloating in your lower abdomen, don’t worry too much. In most cases, these symptoms will go away on their own. However, if symptoms persist for several days or longer, or are accompanied by other symptoms such as pain, fever, bleeding, etc., it is recommended to consult a doctor.
