What color of blood is terrifying during a miscarriage?

Patient's question:

Today I noticed some dark red blood in my underwear. It feels like the baby isn't moving either. I don't know if it's a missed miscarriage. What color is the blood in a missed miscarriage?

Doctor's answer:

If there is minimal bleeding after becoming pregnant, the first thing to consider is threatened miscarriage. After fetal demise, the blood flow is usually dark red. An ultrasound is necessary to check how the fetus is developing inside the uterus and whether there is a heartbeat. If there is vaginal bleeding during pregnancy and no fetal movement is felt, this is an abnormal sign and requires further medical examination. While undergoing treatment, it is important to maintain a light diet and a positive mood. Only with a good mindset and adequate sleep can you quickly recover from the illness.
