Question
Hello doctor,
Currently, I am 4 weeks pregnant and still have 1 lobe left ovary. I had brown bleeding for 2 days, then I went to the ultrasound and the doctor didn't say anything. On the 3rd day, I still had brown bleeding, a few drops all day, half a daily tampon. So the doctor let me ask if it's okay to have brown blood when you're 4 weeks pregnant? What should I do doctor? Thank you.

Vaginal bleeding in the first half of pregnancy is a common phenomenon, the rate of pregnant women having bleeding in the first trimester is 15 - 25%. The majority of cases are minor bleeding, not pathological cases. Like bleeding in the second month of pregnancy in the form of small brown or pink blood spots, this can be a sign that a fertilized egg has implanted in the uterus.
During pregnancy, hormone changes in the body make the blood flow to a woman's uterus greatly increase, the cervix is ​​very easy to bleed, especially after sex or gynecological examination.
However, in some cases, vaginal bleeding is a sign of serious medical conditions, so when pregnant women have signs of vaginal bleeding, they need to go to medical facilities for timely treatment. , there are cases where interventions are needed to keep the pregnancy, but there are cases where the pregnancy must be removed as soon as possible.
