How long does spotting last at 39+5 weeks before delivery?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? How long after spotting at 39+5 weeks of pregnancy can I give birth?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to your description, if you experience contractions, water breaking, or spotting after reaching full term, as well as regular lower abdominal pain, it suggests that you have entered the stage of labor. You can promptly visit the hospital's obstetrics department to get admitted for delivery.
The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects a woman's life but can also lead to further gynecological issues. Therefore, it is best to have a routine check-up at the hospital's gynecology department. After identifying the cause, symptomatic treatment should be administered. In daily life, pay attention to dietary adjustments, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
