Is it a miscarriage if you have sex and bleed at 12 weeks pregnant?

Patient's question:

I got pregnant not long after getting married to my husband, and my husband has a high sex drive. So, even though I was pregnant for two months, I had sex with him. But then I started bleeding vaginally, which made me very worried. That's why I'm eager to ask the doctor now and want to know what's wrong with bleeding after having sex at two months of pregnancy—is it a sign of miscarriage?

Doctor's answer:

Pregnancy for two months with bleeding during sexual intercourse is first considered to be threatened miscarriage, requiring a thorough examination and diagnosis. After diagnosis, it was confirmed to be an intrauterine pregnancy. Normal sexual intercourse led to tearing, and it is considered that the vaginal bleeding is caused by sexual stimulation, resulting in threatened miscarriage. An ultrasound examination can be performed. If there is no abnormal growth and development of the gestational sac and embryo, absolute bed rest can be recommended, along with medication for pregnancy preservation treatment. Sexual intercourse should be avoided in the near future.
