Often before a woman has realized she is pregnant, a spontaneous fainting brings her to a doctor who finds that the cause is pregnancy. The first signs of pregnancy are usually related to the first changes in the woman’s body, and they affect precisely her nervous system

What is the reason behind the faintings?

During pregnancy the woman’s body is overloaded in all its functions and all of its organs, including the central nervous system, are in a state of functional tension. There are also serious changes in the functions of the autonomic nervous system.

Changes in the functions of the cerebral cortex and the autonomic nervous system may cause:

Procrastination – this is a sign of pregnancy and a reaction to the body due to complex changes in the cerebral cortex depending on the type of central nervous system. This tendency to fainting is not a mandatory sign, but is common in more emotional natures.

Frequent changes in facial color – due to changes in the vegetative nervous system

Dizziness and loss of consciousness – a result of changes in the central nervous system

Vomiting and increased salivation – observed in the first three months of pregnancy in the morning on an empty stomach. The reason is the excitement and irritation of the nervus vagus – the so-called wandering nerve whose nuclei are located in the cerebellum.

These vomits occur more frequently in the first pregnancy of the woman and resolve after the fourth month of pregnancy.

Taste and smell can also be affected. Often there is a disgust of meat, but a passion for acidic foods.

All of this is due to changes in the functions of the cerebral cortex and the autonomic nervous system.

The pregnant woman’s body undergoes generally complex changes that prepare him to take care of the little being in it. Often women are nervous, capricious and even unbearable during pregnancy, but given the reasons, their men and everyone around them must show patience and tolerance.
