Being particularly hot at 38 weeks of pregnancy may be due to changes in hormone levels, changes in blood flow or the presence of upper respiratory tract infection.
1. Late pregnancy due to the changes in the level of estrogen and progesterone in the body, resulting in the metabolism of pregnant women to speed up, producing more heat, thus making pregnant women feel particularly hot.
2. During the 38th week of pregnancy, due to the need to provide for the growth and development of the fetus, the blood flow in the pregnant woman’s body increases, resulting in the pregnant woman feeling particularly hot.
3. In late pregnancy, if the pregnant woman is cold, etc., she may also get fever due to upper respiratory tract infection, thus feeling particularly hot.
If you feel excessively hot in late pregnancy, you can ventilate moderately and eat light food, but if an upper respiratory tract infection occurs, you should seek medical attention promptly to avoid delaying your condition.
