Patient's question:
I am almost two months pregnant, and recently I suddenly noticed some bleeding. Sometimes I also have abdominal pain. I felt upset, so I went to the hospital with my husband for a check-up. The doctor said there were signs of threatened miscarriage and advised me to rest in bed, but didn't specify how long I should rest. I would like to know how long one should rest after experiencing threatened miscarriage?Doctor's answer:
The patient should not engage in sexual activity and must maintain a cheerful mood, avoid environmental stress, supplement with adequate nutrition, and take some vitamin E oral liquid. If the embryo develops normally, the cause of the miscarriage will be completely eliminated. However, if the bleeding has not stopped, it is generally not advisable to retain the fetus, as there may be a risk of the fetus developing abnormalities. Therefore, do not force retention to avoid a series of defects after birth.
