HI, Thanks for the query. I understand your concern. The bleeding not controlled by antibiotics ( as suspected by your doctor ) has to be due to same other cause . Commonest of such causes is hormonal deficiency. I would advise emmediated supplement of progesterone followed by investigations the exact position of pregnancy by investigations like ( USG abdomen to know fetal condition/ hormonal estimation ) I would advise for a consultation of your treating doctor.. to have an overall judgement & start with treatment. Thanks.
