HI,
I understand your concern.
Bleeding any time in pregnancy is not normal & needs immediate
attainsion.
Your friend is just 4-5 weeks pregnant with bleeding associated with cramps.. this is suggestive of abortion ( threatened/ incomplete/ impending ). She needs a gynecologist's advise & USG scanning to pin point the cause , followed by specific management.
Thretened abortion can be managed well( provided the embryo is unaffected )& other two conditions demand evacuation.. which will prevent further complications like infection/ excessive blood loss.)
Thanks.
