Suggest Remedy For Persistent Cough During Pregnancy
Hi im about 2 months pregnant and I ve been having a lot of cough for the past 3 days. My concern is that i noticed some spotting yesterday night when i wiped and it was like brownish dark blood and very little. This morning though it was more blood kind of like if i was on my period and it was red. Should I be worried or is nothing serious?

HI, Thanks for the query. I have read & understood your query. YOu have lot of cough with spotting/ bleeding while you have confirmed pregnancy of 2 months.No bleeding is normal once pregnancy is confirmed, so you need to get expert examination by a gynecologist urgently along with Usg abdomen/ Blood HCG level (to assess pregnancy status )As well as Blood counts to know about infection....as per doctor's advise. ..& start hormone replacement to save the pregnancy along with treatment of cough.. Till then, - - Take bed rest, - take cough syrup you have/ do saline gargles/ drink warm water only. - Take a pill of Duphaston 10 mg twice a day till you can visit your doctor. Expert advise/ regular treatment/ home care would help you. Thanks.
