Patient's question:
Yesterday morning, there was vaginal bleeding, but by the afternoon, it had stopped. There were no obvious contractions. What could be the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
You had one episode of vaginal bleeding at 36 weeks of pregnancy, experiencing late pregnancy vaginal bleeding. There are two possibilities: one is placenta previa, and the other is placental abruption. Since your vaginal bleeding is painless, the likelihood of placenta previa is higher. It is recommended that you go to a regular hospital for an ultrasound examination to check if there is placenta previa. Based on the examination results and in consultation with your doctor, you can aim to deliver the fetus smoothly. Gynecological diseases can cause great harm to patients. Once symptoms are detected, it is important to seek medical attention promptly, while also paying attention to self-care, such as eating more fruits and vegetables and avoiding foods. We hope that gynecological patients can receive professional treatment.
