Hello; I have a question that s a little embarassing. I am 9 weeks pregnant and have not had sex with my husband since we knew we conceived. My doctor said no sex. I spotted at the beginning and hadn t had any spotting for the last two weeks. However, I did masturbate today for the first time. I had some bleeding. Enough to be seen on my toilet paper and alarm me; is this normal? I have no unusual cramping and do not feel any other pain.
Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion the spotting during pregnancy can be due to various reasons like thyroid abnormalities,,progesterone insufficiency,abnormal pregnancy,bleeding from cervix etc.The spotting after masturbation can be coincidence.But I suggest you to consult doctor and get evaluated for the above said causes.Ultrasound and thyroid profile might be needed.Avoid physical strain and intercourse.Take good rest.Avoid stress. Dont worry.Once the cause is treated it will subside. relax Best regards...Dr Srilatha
