Hello doctor! My wife is 8 weeks and 2 days pregnant but still has a normal period. When my wife went to the hospital near my house, the sonographer said that my wife has a double uterus or a bicornuate uterus (each time the doctor said one type). Currently, the fetus is still developing normally, with a length of 17mm and a heart rate of 150.
So the doctor asked me: “Why is there a menstrual cycle while pregnant? or not and does it have any effect on the fetus? Thanks for the advice doctor!

Hello! With the question: Why is there still a menstrual cycle when pregnant? Your doctor will answer as follows:
The phenomenon of being pregnant and still having a menstrual cycle is very rare. Therefore, it is necessary to distinguish bleeding threatening a miscarriage from a menstrual cycle phenomenon. You should go to the doctor with your wife when bleeding at medical facilities specializing in obstetrics and gynecology to receive specific advice.
