What to do when pregnant women urinate frequently and urgently

Pregnant women with frequent and urgent urination are recommended to go to the hospital for further examination to clarify the cause and then deal with it symptomatically.1. Normally, when the uterus increases in size during pregnancy, it can produce mild pressure on the bladder, leading to obvious symptoms of frequent and urgent urination in patients. This is a normal change and will not be accompanied by painful urination, fever and pain in the lower back and abdomen. It usually does not require any treatment such as oral medication or physical therapy and requires an adaptation process. If the pressure disappears after delivery, the symptoms of frequent and urgent urination can disappear completely.2. When urinary tract infection occurs, frequent and urgent urination can also occur, which may be accompanied by painful urination or a feeling of incomplete urination. It is recommended that routine urine tests or culture tests be performed, and if the infection is clear, medication should be administered as prescribed by the obstetrician. Generally, medication is not recommended in the first three months of pregnancy to avoid fetal teratogenesis. In later pregnancies, oral cephalosporin antibiotics such as cefixime capsules can be taken orally twice daily for 3 days, as appropriate.
