How much bleeding does a miscarriage cause?

The amount of bleeding in a spontaneous abortion is relatively large, mainly because the embryo is underdeveloped and the fertilized egg cannot be completely implanted. At this time, the vagina will expel the gestational sac and embryo through bleeding. The amount of bleeding must be relatively large to completely induce labor of the embryo. However, pregnant women who have a spontaneous abortion should check their own physical condition and then make adjustments. Generally, the bleeding time for a spontaneous abortion is two weeks.

What are the causes of spontaneous abortion?

First, incomplete embryonic development: Abnormal fertilized eggs are the main cause of early miscarriage. About 80% of miscarriages in the first two months of pregnancy are due to some defects in sperm and eggs, which cause the embryo to develop to a certain extent and then terminate. Therefore, the original embryonic tissue cannot be seen in the discharge of this type of miscarriage.

Second, endocrine dysfunction: The fertilized egg can only implant on the uterine wall and grow and develop into a fetus under the action of progesterone. When the body does not secrete enough progesterone, the uterine decidua will develop poorly, thus affecting the development of the fertilized egg and easily causing miscarriage. If the amount of prostaglandins increases, it will cause frequent contractions of the uterine muscles and may also lead to miscarriage. Reduced thyroid function can cause cell oxidation disorders, thereby affecting the growth and development of the embryo and causing miscarriage.

Third, reproductive organ diseases: uterine malformations such as bicornuate uterus, septate uterus, and uterine hypoplasia. Pelvic tumors, especially submucosal fibroids, can affect the growth and development of the fetus and cause miscarriage. Relaxation of the internal os of the uterus or deep laceration of the cervix can cause premature rupture of membranes and late miscarriage.

How much bleeding does spontaneous abortion cause in early pregnancy

Generally speaking, postpartum bleeding for women will not exceed two weeks. If it exceeds that and the blood flow is greater than during the menstrual period, it is recommended that women pay attention to it in time and get checked immediately. Secondly, regardless of whether these abnormalities occur after miscarriage, a follow-up B-ultrasound examination should be performed two weeks later to understand the environment inside the uterus in detail and to understand the recovery of the female body and uterus. Receive treatment and recovery, and prepare for the next pregnancy.

The amount of bleeding after a miscarriage usually does not exceed the menstrual period. However, for female friends with weak body resistance and slow recovery, the amount of bleeding in the first three days will generally be heavier. But there is no need to be overly anxious, as this is a normal phenomenon after a miscarriage. However, it is recommended that female friends should maintain adequate rest and physical recovery at this time, and avoid spicy and cold foods. For female friends with better physical constitution, after a miscarriage, the bleeding time is shorter and the amount of bleeding is very little, similar to menstruation. Even so, it is recommended to pay attention to proper conditioning, especially in the first three days of miscarriage, you should try to rest in bed.
