What Causes Abdominal Pain Along With Black Stool During Pregnancy?
About 17 weeks pregnant. Abdominal pain that I ve been told is from a chat on the ovary that is normal. Small amount of bleeding around the ovary, but no cause given. Yesterday and today my stool is black in color. Is this sign of miscarriage or normal.
Hi, Having pain in abdomen and passing black stool requires attention to your problem. This problem might be due to acute gastritis or gastric ulcer where chronic blood loss might give rise black stool. This problem might not have any connection with pregnancy. If you are taking Iron tablets which is usually prescribed during pregnancy does cause black stool. Go for stool test for blood called maliena. Consult your doctor and get examined. Ok and take care.
