A member asked:

I am newly pregnant and i have a small amount of bleeding. (only a few drops on toilet paper). is this serious?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pregnant: bleeding ?: If your pregnancy is early, some spotting may occur at about 8-9 weeks. This may be due to inadequate progesterone made by the ovary. See your OB physician for an exam and perhaps a pelvic ultrasound to determine the cause.
