What should be done if there is a threatened miscarriage?

Patient's question:

A 21-year-old female has been sick for a long time, but it wasn't until she was examined that the disease was discovered. Please ask: What should be done about threatened miscarriage?

Doctor's answer:

Preterm labor refers to the recurrence of miscarriage, but with an unopened cervix and intact fetal membranes. If left unresolved, it is highly likely to progress into inevitable miscarriage. However, after treatment with fetal preservation measures, it may result in early pregnancy failure that cannot reach full term. This is commonly observed in the early stages of pregnancy, accompanied by early symptoms of nausea, extremely minimal vaginal bleeding (less than menstrual flow), and mild intermittent uterine contractions. In such cases, further examinations such as blood HCG, progesterone, hemorheology, and vaginal ultrasound should be conducted to clarify the specific situation. Based on the results of these tests, appropriate fetal preservation measures should be taken. Bed rest is necessary, and timely follow-up tests are also required.
