What Causes Brown Vaginal Spotting During Pregnancy?
Im 8 weeks today & 2 days ago I noticed brownish pink blood when I whiped. Well today during one bathroom visit it was more red so I decided to put on a pad. Throughout all today I havent stopped bleeding. It isnt alot, but it s not just spotting either. No cramps or pain. So Im a little scared
Hi Thanks for posting on HCM Bleeding in the first trimester is not always a problem. It may be caused by: -Having sex -An infection -Hormone changes like low progesterone -More serious causes may include: threatened abortion, molar pregnancy and ectopic pregnancy though less likely since no pain/cramps I will suggest you see the Gynecologist for evaluation.A pelvic ultrasound will be needed to evaluate fetal viability and if well implanted.If everything is ok with the fetus, your Doctor may prescribe progestin agents like utrogestan and strict rest. Hope this will help Best regards
