What Causes Spotting During 7th Week Of Pregnancy?

I am in 7th week of pregnancy. But I started slight bleeding as soon as I entered 6th week. This is my second pregnancy, earlier I had miss carried at 2 months as foetus heartbeat had stopped due to subchoronic hematoma which caused bleeding. But this time it has started with brown discharge, It is just spotting now. I am on progesterone and duvadilan tab. But spotting have not stopped yet. Sonography was done at 7th week reflects healthy foetus of 6.61 mm..gestation age of 6.4 weeks. I am on complete bed rest at home. . But I am worried why m I bleeding and why it is not stopping, more worried about baby well being.

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Spotting in early weeks of pregnancy is not a good sign and it could land up in miscarriage. Since you have a previous history of such an episode, the chances in this pregnancy could be also high.
You need to take adequate physical rest and avoid any form of strenuous activity. Eat healthy foods and drink good quantity of fluids.
Kindly undertake another ultrasound scan at the earliest to know what could be the reason for spotting. Consult Gynecologist with the report for clinical evaluation and further management.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
