Patient's question:
I've been pregnant for four months now, experiencing some mild lower abdominal pain, and there's a bit of spotting. Is it a miscarriage if there's very little spotting at four months?Doctor's answer:
At four months pregnant, there was a recurrence of a very small amount of spotting and mild lower abdominal pain. These symptoms indicate a manifestation of threatened miscarriage. You need to seek medical attention at a local hospital as soon as possible for a thorough examination. After a clear diagnosis is confirmed, you should rest in bed under the guidance of a doctor and undergo treatment to preserve the pregnancy. If the cause is due to placenta previa, you must rest in bed absolutely and be strictly prohibited from sexual intercourse.
