What is the cause of bleeding during the 40th day of pregnancy?

Many pregnant mothers should be immersed in the happiness and joy of pregnancy, but they bleed at 40 days of pregnancy, which makes them very scared and nervous. Inexperienced women may even think that this is a normal phenomenon. Bleeding in early pregnancy is not a good sign. Expectant mothers should go to the hospital for examination in time. Let us understand what bleeding in early pregnancy is.

There are two possibilities for bleeding at 40 days of pregnancy: one is that there are signs of threatened miscarriage, then you need to go to the hospital for examination to see whether you can receive treatment to preserve the fetus or whether you need to end the pregnancy based on the condition of the gestational sac. Another possibility is ectopic pregnancy with bleeding. This situation is more dangerous and requires immediate hospitalization for treatment. Otherwise, if heavy bleeding occurs, your life may be in danger.

Threatened abortion generally refers to a disease in which vaginal bleeding occurs in the early stages of pregnancy and is accompanied by abdominal pain and back pain. Threatened miscarriage may result in miscarriage, but with proper treatment the pregnancy can usually continue normally. What are the clinical manifestations of threatened abortion symptoms?

1. Menopause

Most patients with spontaneous abortion have a history of obvious amenorrhea.

2. Vaginal bleeding

The first symptom is often vaginal bleeding. In cases of miscarriage within 3 months of pregnancy, the chorion and decidua separate, the blood sinuses open, and bleeding begins. The amount of bleeding is generally small and is often dark red or bloody leucorrhea. When all the embryos are expelled, the bleeding stops. It can last from 4 to 5 days to more than a week.

3. Abdominal pain

The presence of blood in the uterine cavity stimulates uterine contractions for hours to weeks after bleeding occurs. It may be accompanied by mild lower abdominal pain or back pain. After 12 weeks of pregnancy, patients may sometimes feel paroxysmal abdominal pain.

4. Severe vomiting

Early symptoms of threatened abortion include severe vomiting and inability to eat. Pregnant women should go to the hospital for treatment because severe vomiting during pregnancy can lead to dehydration and electrolyte imbalance, which can endanger the life of pregnant women in severe cases.

The above article has explained some of the reasons for bleeding during the 40 days of pregnancy. I hope it can help all expectant mothers. In the early stages of pregnancy, the fetus is still unstable, so you must be especially careful. If you have any discomfort or strange feelings in your body, you should go to the hospital for relevant examinations in time, so that you and your family can rest assured.
