How long does it take for a threatened miscarriage to actually occur?

After a threatened miscarriage occurs, it is usually necessary to follow the doctor's advice to take measures to preserve the fetus. If the fetus preservation is successful, there will be no real miscarriage, but if the fetus preservation fails, a real miscarriage will occur. The interval from threatened miscarriage to real miscarriage is generally about one week.

Threatened abortion refers to symptoms such as a small amount of vaginal bleeding and mild lower abdominal pain during pregnancy. After a threatened abortion occurs, if effective measures to preserve the fetus are not taken in time, that is, if you do not rest in bed or take pregnancy-preserving drugs as prescribed by the doctor, it may progress, with the embryo detaching from the uterine wall, increased vaginal bleeding, and increased lower abdominal pain due to uterine contractions, leading to a true abortion, with the embryo completely expelled from the uterine cavity. The time from threatened abortion to actual abortion is usually about a week, but there are individual differences. Sometimes it is very short, and the actual abortion may occur one day after the threatened abortion occurs, but it may also take more than a week, depending mainly on the development of the embryo and the physical condition of the pregnant woman.

If you experience threatened miscarriage, you should go to the obstetrics department of the hospital as soon as possible and receive treatment under the doctor's guidance. After the actual miscarriage, you should pay attention to rest more, refrain from sexual intercourse within one month, and go to the hospital for follow-up examinations on time.
