Patient's question:
Age of illness description: There has been a small amount of bleeding since the beginning of pregnancy. I have been hospitalized for over twenty days and have been receiving progesterone shots every day. However, the bleeding still comes and goes. The doctor said it might be caused by vaginal inflammation.History of previous treatment and effectiveness: Progesterone, hCG, anti-inflammatory shots, and hemostatic shots.
What kind of help do you want: I would like to consult whether I still need to carry the pregnancy. I really want this child. What are the common causes of threatened miscarriage?
Doctor's answer:
Hello. Threatened miscarriage refers to vaginal bleeding and/or lower abdominal pain before 28 weeks of pregnancy, with an open cervix and intact membranes. The pregnancy can continue in cases where the bleeding is minimal (approximately 0%). If there is slight bleeding in an intrauterine pregnancy, it is best to follow treatment for preserving the pregnancy. The most important aspect of preserving the pregnancy is to rest in bed and minimize activity. Additionally, you can take some supportive medication for preserving the pregnancy. For threatened miscarriage symptoms, treatment for preserving the pregnancy may include absolute bed rest, taking vitamin E and pregnancy-preserving pills. If progesterone levels are low, progesterone injections may be administered. Increase your nutrition to enhance maternal resistance. Avoid foods like hawthorn and crabs.
