What are the typical symptoms of threatened miscarriage?

Typical symptoms of threatened abortion include minor vaginal bleeding and mild abdominal pain. It is recommended to seek medical attention immediately when the above symptoms occur, and to conduct professional examinations to determine the cause and intervene in time.

Threatened abortion usually presents as abnormal signs in early pregnancy. Vaginal bleeding is the most common symptom. The amount of bleeding is usually less than menstruation, and the color is mostly dark red or brown. The duration and severity vary from person to person. Mild abdominal pain or a feeling of heaviness in the lower abdomen are also common. Some pregnant women may feel back pain or mild menstrual-like pain. In a few cases, it may only manifest as an abnormal increase in secretions without obvious pain or bleeding. If the symptoms are not intervened in time, it may further develop into an irreversible miscarriage. Early identification and intervention of symptoms are particularly critical.

If you have confirmed your pregnancy and have the above symptoms, you should avoid strenuous activities, get enough rest, and go to the hospital as soon as possible. The doctor may perform a preliminary assessment by B-ultrasound to check the growth and development of the fetus and heartbeat, test the progesterone level, or perform a vaginal examination. You may need to use progesterone drugs (such as dydrogesterone or progesterone injection) under the guidance of a doctor to help stabilize the pregnancy. If there are abnormal uterine contractions, drugs to relieve uterine contractions (such as nifedipine) may also be prescribed. In terms of daily diet, you can consume more foods rich in protein and vitamins, pay attention to keeping a calm mood, and avoid excessive anxiety.
