Question : Hi,
I'm 22 years old and had my LMP on 9-01-16. After which I had sex on 15th when the condom broke so I took an ipill after 12 hours and then had withdrawal bleeding for 3 days from 22nd to the 25th of XXXXXXX After this on the 4th of feb I had a bloody discharge and on examination in front of a mirror I noticed a mass protruding just outside the vagina but receded on lying down. I went to the gynec today on 6th and she said there was no mass but there is a bloody discharge. I was asked to do an ultrasound and UPT. Can this be a missed abortion?
