What to do if you have bleeding during intercourse in early pregnancy

During pregnancy, women need to pay attention to different things at different times, which will be very helpful for the baby's development. In the early stages of pregnancy, women must pay attention to keeping their emotions stable. Bad emotions will have a greater impact on the baby and may cause miscarriage. So what should women do if they bleed during intercourse in early pregnancy? Many women understand this, and there are some solutions to this situation.

What to do if you have bleeding during intercourse in early pregnancy:

If vaginal bleeding occurs one month into your pregnancy, you must seek medical attention as soon as possible.

The doctor will first assess the amount of bleeding and measure blood pressure and pulse to determine whether immediate hospitalization is needed. The patient will then be asked some relevant information, such as the date of the last menstrual period, whether the menstrual period is regular, whether she has ever experienced morning sickness and breast tenderness and whether these symptoms still exist, and whether she has symptoms of lower abdominal pain. Then further physical examination will be carried out and a preliminary judgment will be made. If necessary, an ultrasound examination and blood test for serum levels of "beta-human chorionic gonadotropin" (abbreviated as chorionic hormone) or progesterone will be arranged to help diagnose whether it is a normal intrauterine pregnancy, spontaneous abortion, ectopic pregnancy or hydatidiform mole.

Regarding the examination of chorionic villus, it is usually more valuable to compare the values ​​of two blood draws 48 hours apart. In patients with normal intrauterine pregnancy, the second value will usually be more than 66% higher than the first. If the increase is not enough or there is a decrease, it may be an ectopic pregnancy or incomplete abortion. At this time, uterine dilatation and curettage or laparoscopy should be arranged for further diagnosis.

In recent years, due to the development of vaginal ultrasound, its resolution has been greatly improved, which can help doctors detect intrauterine gestational sac earlier. If an intrauterine gestational sac is found, the chance of ectopic pregnancy at the same time is very low, about only one in forty thousand. If no gestational sac is found in the uterus and the chorionic hormone is higher than 1500 IU/L, the possibility of ectopic pregnancy must be considered.

After understanding what to do if you have bleeding during intercourse in early pregnancy, women should be careful to follow the doctor's advice when alleviating bleeding during intercourse in early pregnancy. In addition, the fetus is unstable in the early stages of pregnancy, so they cannot have intercourse, otherwise it will cause miscarriage, which will cause great harm to the female body. Women should pay attention to this.
