Has anyone had bleeding throughout pregnancy?

It is not common to bleed throughout the entire pregnancy, but if the placenta is located low, it will cause cervical insufficiency and may cause frequent bleeding. At this time, you must conduct a good examination in time. As long as the fetus develops well, you can have a baby at this time. Of course, you must control the bleeding in time. Let's take a look at this aspect below.

Bleeding during pregnancy is usually caused by a low-lying placenta or cervical insufficiency. If the results of the three-dimensional color ultrasound examination are normal, it means that the fetus is developing basically normally and you can have a child. If bleeding occurs again, it would be better to have a check-up to understand the cause of the bleeding.

Placenta previa is common

Bleeding due to placental abruption. When the fertilized egg implants in the endometrium, it affects the tiny blood vessels in the endometrium and causes punctate implantation bleeding. This usually occurs during the menstrual cycle and is mostly normal.

Light vaginal bleeding or brown discharge during the first three months of pregnancy, sometimes accompanied by abdominal or back pain, is often a sign of miscarriage.

Late miscarriage after 12 weeks of pregnancy is rarely associated with chromosomal abnormalities. A molar pregnancy is a condition in which the fetus does not develop normally. Most miscarriages in the middle or late stages are caused by a normal fetus that cannot continue to develop due to various reasons. For example, severe uterine fibroids can make the uterus unable to maintain pregnancy.

What to do if you have bleeding during pregnancy

Early pregnancy bleeding

1. Miscarriage: Pregnant mothers should rush to the hospital immediately and continue to have B-ultrasound examinations according to their personal conditions to understand the development of the fetus. If the amount of bleeding is heavy, it means that miscarriage is inevitable and a curettage is required in time. If the amount of bleeding is small, it may be a threatened miscarriage. Under the guidance of a doctor, the mother can adjust her body and get enough rest, and the chances of successfully preserving the fetus are still very high.

2. Ectopic pregnancy: If there is vaginal bleeding in the early stages of pregnancy accompanied by abdominal pain, you should go to the hospital immediately, especially pregnant women with a history of ectopic pregnancy should be more careful. A careful B-ultrasound examination is performed in the early stages of pregnancy to determine whether the pregnancy is intrauterine.

【Mid-pregnancy bleeding】

1. Cervical insufficiency: At this time, the pregnant mother should go to the hospital for examination. If the cervical insufficiency is confirmed, a cervical cerclage operation should be performed, which only takes 5-10 minutes. It is usually more appropriate to do this operation at 14-20 weeks of pregnancy, and the effect is also very good.

2. Hydatidiform mole: When pregnant mothers go to the hospital for treatment, the main method is to remove the hydatidiform mole by uterine dilatation and curettage. However, everyone should pay attention that hydatidiform mole may undergo malignant changes and develop into choriocarcinoma, so pregnant mothers must insist on regular observation and examination.

【Bleeding in late pregnancy】

1. Placenta previa: In hospitals, doctors generally use ultrasound examinations to diagnose whether placenta previa occurs. If the fetus is not yet mature, generally speaking, doctors will ask pregnant mothers to stay in the hospital for observation and, if necessary, give them blood transfusions until the fetus matures, and then perform a cesarean section to remove the fetus; but if the pregnant mother has severe or persistent bleeding, doctors will focus on the safety of the mother's life first.

2. Placental abruption. After diagnosis by a doctor, if the symptoms are mild, conservative treatment is generally adopted. The pregnant woman must rest in bed and be closely observed in the hospital. If it is urgent, you have to find a way to deliver the fetus. If the fetus survives but is in fetal distress, a caesarean section would be ideal.
