Frequent urination is a common symptom during pregnancy, but it typically becomes more noticeable later on rather than just one week in.
Frequent urination is a symptom many women experience during pregnancy, but it is usually more common as the pregnancy progresses. According to the study by Beyazıt and colleagues, urinary symptoms, including frequent urination, are affected by pregnancy, but these changes are more pronounced as the pregnancy advances.
In the early stages, the body undergoes many hormonal changes, but these are not usually associated with increased urination in just the first week. The study by van der Post et al. discusses hormonal changes during pregnancy, such as changes in vasopressin and oxytocin, which can influence fluid balance, but these changes are more relevant later in pregnancy.
It's important to note that while frequent urination can occur, it is not typically a prominent symptom in the very early stages, like the first week. If you have concerns about symptoms or changes in your body, it is always a good idea to consult with a healthcare provider.
