Patient Query

Hello Doctor,

I’m 9 weeks pregnant and have noticed light bleeding, ranging from light pink to red, over the past few days. There’s no pain or cramping, but I’m worried. Could this be normal, or should I be concerned?

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

Light bleeding during early pregnancy can be a sign of a threatened miscarriage, but it doesn't always mean that a miscarriage will happen. It's important that you take complete rest, avoid any physical exertion, and refrain from sexual activity. I recommend you see your healthcare provider as soon as possible for a proper evaluation to ensure both your health and the health of your pregnancy.

Thanks
