A member asked:

I have subchrionic hematoma 3cmx3cmx1cm bleeding for past 4 wks. im 17wks preg. w/ healthy fetus,growing on sched. can i go on a 4 hour plane ride?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Flying: Subchorionic hematoma is the most common sonographic abnormality found in viable pregnancys. The OB community is not solidly behind generic advice on the flying with SH or not. If it is small and resolving and the flight less than 3 hours many OB docs would give the okay. If its large/multiple bleeds most OB docs would discourage it. I'm pretty conservative and would say it is not a good idea.
