Patient's question:
On September 27th, after the ninth week, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination and found no fetal pole or fetal heartbeat. On October 4th, a follow-up examination showed a fetal pole of 8mm but no fetal heartbeat. The doctor recommended an operation to terminate the pregnancy. On October 6th, in the evening, I had brown discharge and mild abdominal pain. The doctor said it was threatened miscarriage and wanted to consult whether threatened miscarriage is equivalent to fetal demise.What kind of help is needed: Is threatened miscarriage equivalent to fetal demise?
Doctor's answer:
It is possible to have sexual activity during pregnancy. However, it is important not to overdo it and to pay attention to maintaining regularity. Good prenatal check-ups are essential for the well-being of the pregnancy. Other factors may also affect the child's health and potentially lead to miscarriage.For your situation, it is recommended to undergo pre-pregnancy testing and careful pre-natal care before planning another child, including taking folic acid and maintaining a balanced diet. It is important to consider the risks involved, as this situation carries certain risks. It is best to avoid catching a cold. If necessary, promptly visit the hospital for ultrasound or progesterone tests to determine the cause of the potential miscarriage. It is advisable to maintain a balanced diet and pay attention to good hygiene.
