Suggest Treatment For Vaginal Bleeding During Pregnancy
I am 6 weeks pregnant and have been bleeding pretty heavy the past few days, enough that I have to change tampons a few times a day, with clots in some cases. I also have severe cramps in my lower abdomen. I do not have health insurance so I have yet to be seen in ER or by a doctor.

Hallow Dear,
Heavy vaginal bleeding with colicky pains in the lower abdomen is not a good sign. It is suggesting Threatened abortion which cannot be reverted. Please get your ultrasonography performed which will reveal the cause of bleeding as well as the stage of abortion. If the baby is still viable, attempts may be done by giving you Progesterone preparations to arrest the progress of abortion. However, whenever there is lower abdomen pain in Threated abortion, usually we cannot stop abortion.
Please inspect your tampons. If white tissue is observed, it is the tissue of the baby and then pregnancy has aborted incompletely which needs completion.
Please report to your Obstetrician ASAP before you land into heavy bleeding.
