What does bleeding during the 39th week of pregnancy indicate?

Hello doctor,

I am 39 weeks and 4 days pregnant. I saw a little bloody discharge sometime ago. My due date is the end of this month. Should I be concerned about this and get admitted now or should I wait for contractions?

Kindly help.

What are the chances of getting pregnant after turning 40?

Hello doctor,

I am 44 years old and missed my period 20 days ago. Pregnancy urine tests have been negative and my beta hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) is 2.1 mIU/mL. I am feeling dizzy and nauseous. Could this be pregnancy?

Please suggest.

Thank you.

Why does nipple discharge happen after an abortion?

Hi doctor,

I had an abortion when I was six weeks pregnant, and it is been two weeks since I had an abortion. However, today I noticed some yellowish-whitish fluid coming out of my breast when I pressed on it. This only happens when I squeeze the breast, and I am not sure if it is normal, considering I am still in the early stages of pregnancy (six weeks). Please give your opinion.

Thank you.
