Miscarriage
by debbie007, Dec 15, 2007 10:01AM
how many months pregnant does one have to be before they got d/c operated on them. I was only about a month pregnant, am still bleeding out though, its like am on my period or something, so I don't know whether i should still go to the hospital to get checked. I went yesterday, they were taking forever, one might as well die at home than going to that hospital.
I just miscarried and I am also wondering how long i should wait to get pregnant again. I am also taking Fertilaid vitamins to help with conceiving, is it okay?

Hello,
It's not clear to me how long ago your miscarriage was, but if you are concerned and still bleeding get seen and evaluated at an area hospital.
Generally, I recommend waiting until the return of a normal menses before a couple begins to make attempts at conceiving after a loss.
Fertilaid isn't going to help you get pregnant. You would be better off with a simple prenatal vitamin.
Best regards,
Dr. Downing

i bleed for 2 weeks after my miscarriage you need to be seen at hospital to make sure you passed all the pregancy material if not it will have to be taken away no matter how early you were sorry for your loss

My miscarriage started on the 13th of this month. I found out that I was pregnant on the 9th of this month as well. My normal menstrual cycle is on the 13th of every month as well. So I don't understand.

it is possiable but uncommon to have your periods while pregnant that happened to my mum she only found out she was pregnant with me 8 hours before i was born so you should go to doctor or hospital to have a scan to see what is happening but as you were so early it may not show on a scan i home pregancy test is no good eather as thay can show positive for weeks after a miscarrage i think the best thing you can do is go to the doc and have your hcg levels checked to see if they are going up or down

my hcg level has gone completely down, i know that i am having a miscarriage, i have stopped bleeding, i saw a lot of thick things coming out like have never seen before. I went to the hospital not too long ago and they said that i was not pregnant anymore, and on that same day, that is when i started miscarriaging.
