Hello,

Since you already had threatened miscarriage and have been advised bed rest, you should have continued to be in bed rest. You should have avoided having sex all through bed rest. Vaginal bleeding associated with abdominal cramping is indicative of miscarriage. You are suggested to get clinically examined by a gynecologist. Get USG uterus done to detect the cause of bleeding, Sometimes bleeding occurs due to placenta previa (attachment of placenta near the cervix of the uterus). Stay at rest till the causative factor is detected.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
