What Causes Stomach Pain During 6 Weeks Of Pregnancy?
Question: i am about 6 weeks pregnant and my stomach is hurting really bad on the left mid section. what could this be
Brief Answer:
Need an ultrasound; do not take pain killers, use the below mentioned drugs
Detailed Answer:
Hello once again ma'am.
We have consulted even earlier.
As I had mentioned earlier, you will require an ultrasound examination of your abdomen to further understand the cause for the pain. But for now I would recommend the use of the following medications:
+Ranitidine
+Omeprazole
+Pantoprazole
Any of the above easily available medications can help to reduce gas and acid production, which is usually increased during pregnancy so please try to take these medications (one tablet three times a day, usually about 15 minutes before each meal) and see if it helps.
But I would still recommend the ultrasound examination ma'am, as we need to find the cause for the discomfort and also check on the growth and development of your baby. Please do not hesitate to write back to me for any further clarifications, I am always here to help.
Best wishes.

i went to the emergency room and they told me that everything looked normal still no heartbeat for the baby....but they did a ultrasound.
Brief Answer:
That is good to know, take either of those meds, they will help
Detailed Answer:
Hi ma'am.
If they did an ultrasound and all seemed well, then the only thing we can suspect is gas or increased acid production. For the same reason I have prescribed those medications in my previous response, please take them.
