Patient's question:
Last month's period arrived on the 17th, and this month's period arrived on the 20th, but it was very light, and the color was very dark. There has been sexual intercourse. It is difficult to determine whether it is a period or a miscarriage.Doctor's answer:
In general, if the menstrual period is normal with no obvious symptoms of miscarriage such as lower back pain or abdominal cramps, and the blood flow is light, it can stop within a few days. Bleeding in threatened miscarriage is aperiodic, with variable amounts of blood, and is often accompanied by lower back pain or abdominal discomfort. It can also be distinguished through blood HCG testing or pregnancy test strips. If there is bleeding in this case, it is recommended to wait and see with further examination. Generally, it is not serious, but if the menstrual period remains abnormal for a long time, further examination is advised to check the uterus and endocrine system to identify the cause and regulate it.
