Patient's question:
Can a severe pain during uterine shrinkage after childbirth lead to fetal demise? No other symptoms are present.Doctor's answer:
Hello, after strong contractions, vaginal bleeding often occurs, which is a symptom of threatened miscarriage. It generally does not lead to fetal demise. Fetal demise is usually caused by the abnormal cessation of embryonic development, which then leads to contractions and bleeding. If fetal demise persists for a long time, it can cause coagulation disorders in the mother. Once fetal demise is confirmed, it is important to terminate the pregnancy promptly.
