Does pregnancy and heparin cause vaginal bleeding?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Does taking heparin during pregnancy cause vaginal bleeding?

Doctor's answer:

Low molecular weight heparin is an anticoagulant drug that helps prevent blood clots. Overuse can lead to bleeding tendencies. Therefore, it can cause vaginal bleeding.
Hello, based on your description, it is likely caused by threatened miscarriage. You can have a color Doppler ultrasound and check your HCG levels. Rest in bed and focus on preserving the pregnancy. Hormone therapy, such as progesterone injections, can be administered. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
