How to distinguish between pseudomenstruation and threatened miscarriage

Patient's question:

Is it possible to have menstruation, which is called "false menstruation"? Could such a situation occur? What are the symptoms of false menstruation? I'm so worried!
Medical history and treatment effectiveness: There was inflammation, and the menstrual flow was heavier than before the surgery.
What kind of help do you want: How can I distinguish between false menstruation and the symptoms of threatened miscarriage?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, I suggest you get an HCG test at a regular hospital. Generally, if there is a condition of uterine cold, during the onset of menstruation, it may be accompanied by blood clots and abdominal pain. Moreover, if you are really pregnant, it is usually easier to detect after 14 days of intercourse.
Recommendation: I suggest you get an HCG test at the hospital or an ultrasound after your menstrual period is clean. If your menstruation is different from usual, it may not be menstruation but rather irregular vaginal bleeding accompanied by abdominal pain. First, go to the hospital for a blood test to check for pregnancy. If it is pregnancy, then do an ultrasound to rule out ectopic pregnancy.
Recommendation: If you are not pregnant, consider that the intercourse is close to the menstrual period, leading to upward infection and causing endometritis, which may result in increased menstrual flow and abdominal pain. Immediate and sufficient broad-spectrum anti-inflammatory treatment should be administered to avoid affecting future fertility.
