Patient's question:
13 came on her period this month, and bleeding started on the 8th and has continued until now, sometimes stopping and sometimes not. The color is several types, red, pink, and coffee-colored.Past treatment and effectiveness: She went to the hospital for an ultrasound, but it couldn’t be done, but it was detected that she was pregnant. The doctor said it wasn’t full term and prescribed medication to support the pregnancy. Now, after taking it for 3 days, she is still bleeding, but it is less than before. It comes and goes.
What kind of help she wants: She wants to ask what might be the cause of this, whether it could lead to a miscarriage, and what methods can be used to treat it if she wants to carry the baby.
Doctor's answer:
Hello, regardless, if you notice vaginal bleeding, you should seek medical attention as soon as possible. This is to determine the cause of the bleeding and the condition of the fetus. It is important to minimize unnecessary vaginal examinations to reduce stimulation to the uterus. If the pregnancy test is positive and the body temperature and ultrasound results suggest that it is suitable for preserving the pregnancy, treatment should be carried out under the guidance of a doctor. If the amount of vaginal bleeding exceeds the amount of menstruation, or other diagnoses confirm that the fetus has died or inevitable miscarriage is unavoidable, pregnancy should be terminated as soon as possible to prevent bleeding and infection. In addition, it is important to go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination promptly to rule out the possibility of ectopic pregnancy, and then proceed with treatment to preserve the pregnancy.Recommendations: During treatment, absolute bed rest is recommended to avoid excessive emotional stress that could worsen the condition. Maintain cleanliness of the external genitalia to prevent retrograde infection.
