Patient's question:
I've been pregnant for almost three months and have noticed some faint coffee-colored blood. What could be the reason? Thank you!Follow-up question: It's been a week now, with just a little bit each day. Shouldn't it be okay? I'm very worried. Could you tell me some possible reasons besides miscarriage? Thank you!!!
Doctor's answer:
Hello, be aware of the possibility of threatened miscarriage in this situation. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for a detailed examination as soon as possible. Once a diagnosis is confirmed, targeted treatment would be better.Do not delay the condition. Once a threatened miscarriage is diagnosed, bed rest is necessary: absolute bed rest, and no sexual activity is allowed. Avoid squatting movements as well. Additionally, sexual intercourse should be avoided during the first three months of pregnancy. Since the embryo is in the developmental stage, especially the connection between the placenta and the uterine wall of the mother is not yet firm, if sexual intercourse occurs, it may easily cause uterine shock due to improper movements or accidental mishaps during excessive excitement, leading to placental detachment and miscarriage.
