What causes spotting during 7th week of pregnancy?
Patient: hi i am in my 6th week of pregnancy and i woke up around 2 oclock this morning to use the bathroom and when i wiped there was light blod on the tissue as if it had been mixed with discharge or something... I actually am going into my 7th week today? Any ideas on what this could be? Doctor: Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion the spotting might be due to various reasons like hormonal abnormalities like thyroid abnormalities,progesterone insufficiency,any miscarriage,any excess physical strain,cervical bleeding etc.All the above causes should be ruled out by doing ultrasound,thyroid profile etc.Contact your doctor and discuss regarding these said things.Avoid physical strain and intercourse.Iam just trying to give you information and not diagnosing any condition ad it needs physical examination and necessary investigations.So relax.Best regards....
