HI Doctor, I am in 6th week of my pregnancy, i am seeing bleeding in light red color sometimes from past one week and dark brown sticky lumps daily. Last week i went to my doctor, they did blood test and ultra sound and they could not know the reason for my blood discharge but said my progesterone level is 8.5 bit low then the least that is 9. Can i know what is the reason i am seeing the blood discharge and the brown lumps. Thankyou.

HI, I understand your concern. Early pregnancy bleeding is mostly due to deficiency of hormone progesteron.. which supports maintenance /development of fetus If your other readings of USG show normal growth of fetus,You should start taking progesteron pills as early as possible.. which will stop the bleeding & help normal fetal growth, Thanks.
