Pregnancy test positive. On the 9th day had slight bleeding, why?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

This is a threatened miscarriage as it would be termed medically as the pregnancy test is positive. But,ultrasound is not contraindicated as it is necessary to localize the pregnancy and rule out ectopic pregnancy as well which can have similar presentation with bleeding along with pain abdomen. So, get an ultrasound done. If there is a gestational sac seen inside uterus then you can be placed on Progesterone support, hCG injections (human chorionic gonadotropin) to allow placental cytotrophoblastic invasion into endometrium thereby supporting pregnancy and also absolute bed rest should be followed. But, there is absolutely no indication of termination at present when even fetal pole has not arrived. The decision can be taken if the pregnancy does not grow till nine weeks.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

You can go for a transvaginal and pelvic ultrasound both today itself with an aim to localize pregnancy which is very important. An ectopic pregnancy could be an emergency.
