Bleeding in the First Half of Pregnancy

Bleeding in the first half of pregnancy

Pregnancy is a complex physiological process that can be accompanied by various complications, including uterine or vaginal bleeding. The most dangerous in this regard are the first and last trimesters of pregnancy.

Not all bleeding at the beginning of pregnancy indicates pathology. In the early stages, small spotting is considered a normal symptom and does not pose a threat to the course of pregnancy.

Causes of bleeding:

1. Rejection of fragments of the uterine mucosa during the fixation of the fertilized egg.

2. Erosion of the cervix due to increased blood flow.

3. Polyps of the cervical canal and decidual polyps.

4. Varicose veins of the external genitalia.

5. Vaginal infections.

Dangerous reasons:

1. Threat of spontaneous miscarriage.

2. Ectopic pregnancy.

3. Pathology of the cervix, including oncology.

If there is any bleeding, you should immediately consult a doctor. He will conduct an examination, tests and ultrasound to determine the cause and prevent the development of complications. Timely treatment allows you to maintain pregnancy even in the early stages.
