Hi,
A subchorionic hemorrhage is a type of bleeding that occurs between the uterine wall and the chorion, which is the outer membrane surrounding the embryo. This type of bleeding is common in early
pregnancy and is usually not a cause for concern. However, if the hemorrhage is large or persists, it can increase the risk of complications such as
miscarriage or
preterm labor.
In your case, the
ultrasound showed evidence of a tiny rim of subchorionic hemorrhage measuring 0.8x0.2 cm in the anterior aspect of the
gestational sac. Your doctor has advised you to take
bed rest for 2 weeks and to take Dubagest 200, which is a
progesterone supplement commonly prescribed during pregnancy to help support the uterus and prevent miscarriage.
It is important to follow your doctor's advice and take the prescribed medication to help prevent complications. Bed rest and avoiding heavy lifting or strenuous activity can also help to reduce the risk of further bleeding or complications. Your doctor will likely schedule follow-up ultrasounds to monitor the hemorrhage and ensure that it is resolving. If the hemorrhage does not resolve or if there are other concerns, your doctor may recommend additional treatment or intervention.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Priyanka, General & Family Physician
