What Does My USG Scan Report Indicate?
Question: Dear Doctor
My wife is almost 10+ weeks pregnant. Pregnancy was going smoothly until 2 days back there was some light brown white-ish spotting in the pad. Followed by some brownish discharge from the vagina. We went straight to the ER where the tests and ultrasounds were performed and baby was normal moving and having a good heartbeat. Cervix was also closed and ultrasound was normal. The doctor just incresed the dosage of duphaston and gave one vaginal progestrone 100 mg through the vagina. I am attaching the USG scan for the same. Could you please advice the causes for this incidence. One of my friends told me that browish discharge and some discharge can be ejected by body as remnants of last period as the sac grows and this is normal. There is no pain or cramping. Also the morning sickness is in full swing with multiple vomiting episodes per day. This is our first pregnancy and we were scared

Brief Answer:
Nothing to worry
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand the concerns.
Spotting in early pregnancy can be due to bleeding around the fetus ( subchorionic hemorrhage) or abortion.
Since the ultrasound you have uploaded is normal, then it is most likely a subchorionic hemorrhage or placental bleeding, which occurs as the placenta forms.
Since there is no evidence of blood collection in the ultrasound, then there is nothing to worry.
She should continue progesterone support as advised.
Hope you found the answer helpful.

Thanks Dr XXXXXXX Your answer was very helpful.
I hope the ultrasound that i have uploaded is visible and clear.
Even our Gynae adviced that it might be due to placental formation.
Is there any risk for future. ??
She is continuing with Duphaston 10 mg 3 times daily, and 100 Mg Progesterone Vaginally 1 times daily.
What should she NOT do , and can she lead a normal home life ?
Also its almost reduced yesterday and has almost stopped today.
