Patient's question:
I am three months pregnant. Since last week, I have noticed blood in my underwear, and sometimes my stomach also hurts. The hospital examination suggested the possibility of habitual abortion (I have had two miscarriages before). I am really worried now. Could you please tell me: is there any way to prevent habitual abortion?Doctor's answer:
After a miscarriage, if you become pregnant again, it is essential to pay close attention to maintaining the pregnancy. During this period, avoid physical exercise, sports, sexual activity, and activities like rushing around or traveling. Rest as much as possible, but you don’t need to lie in bed every day. It is still appropriate to work, but be mindful of light physical exertion and avoid overexertion. If you suddenly experience vaginal bleeding, mild lower abdominal pain, a sense of heaviness, or lower back and sacral pain, be cautious of threatened miscarriage or a recurring miscarriage. If it is a threatened miscarriage, as long as you seek medical attention promptly for follow-up and to support the pregnancy, there is still a high chance of carrying the pregnancy to term.
