Newly pregnant and just realising how little i actually know about my own body lol. I get that periods stop but i dont fully understand the reason behind it. Can someone explain in simple words?
My amma always said periods stop because the body is now feeding the baby, and the doctor said the same in simple words. It is just nature protecting the pregnancy. Nothing to worry at all.
Oh I always wondered this too actually. So a missed period really is the body switching off that cycle, makes sense now. Thanks for asking, I was curious.
My gynac explained it nicely, once the baby implants the body keeps the lining instead of shedding it, so no period. The hormones basically tell your body to pause that cycle. That is why missed period is the first sign.
