Suggest Treatment For Brown Vaginal Spotting During Pregnancy
Im about 6 and a half weeks pregnant. I have had 3 pregnancies, two of which ended in Miscarriage. I have a bicornuate uterus, although the divide is not serious. At the moment I am experiencing light brown spotting. I ve had it so far for under a week. I went to the Early Pregnancy Unit last Friday, who scanned me and said they could see a sack but not much else, but they said it was too early (I was just 6 weeks) and to come back in 10 days. In the meantime, I ve had more spotting, which increases on exertion. It s not extremely heavy, or clotting, but I have had a dull ache on the side where the baby is (right hand side). I know my doctor said that I can t do anything about it, but I m a little concerned that although it s not getting dramatically worse, its still there. Is there anything I should be doing? I had the same bleeding with my daughter, and with the other two pregnancies, so I am worried. Any advice would be appreciated Thank you

Hello dear,I.understand your concern.In my opinion the spotting during pregnancy can be due to various causes like hormonal abnormalities like thyroid abnormalities, progesterone insufficiency,uterine morphological abnormalities ,abnormal pregnancy,bleeding from cervix etc.
In your case as doctor said the definite diagnosis can be made only after repeating the ultrasound.For now avoid physical strain and intercourse.Take good rest and vitamin supplements and others as suggested by your doctor.Take healthy nutritional diet.
