Could be!: If your doctor thinks so, there's likely a good reason for it. Did you have a positive pregnancy test? Bleeding can occur in pregnancy & while sometimes it means nothing, other times it is a sign that something is wrong. Trust the experts who have examined you & done the appropriate tests. IF in doubt, get a second opinion in person or you can try a virtual consult on Healthap Prime/Concierge.

Yes, it is possible: Unfortunately, many pregnancies are complicated by bleeding which creates concerns and require evaluation . If your blood betaHCG test is positive, you will need a pelvic sonogram and a gynecological exam to diagnose the cause of your bleeding, the location and viability of the pregnancy ...and establish a plan of management .
