Patient's question:
I have been pregnant for four months and one week. Yesterday morning, when I woke up, I suddenly bled, and it felt like my period was coming. So I immediately went to the hospital for a check-up. I had an ultrasound, and everything was normal. What could cause bleeding at four months of pregnancy? Will I miscarry?Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you described, there is a possibility of threatened miscarriage, or it could be due to placenta previa. You should undergo an ultrasound examination to assess the condition of the fetus and the placenta. If there are no significant abnormalities, it may be possible to consider treatment to prevent miscarriage. It is important to avoid unnecessary activity and refrain from sexual intercourse. Pain, pressure in the abdomen, and sudden appearance of bloody discharge or bleeding during pregnancy are symptoms of threatened miscarriage. You need to promptly visit a hospital to check progesterone levels and whether the gestational sac is still present. If it is, treatment to prevent miscarriage is necessary. If it is not, it indicates a miscarriage, so do not delay in seeking medical attention and undergoing examination.
