My husband and I had sex 4 days ago and since then i have noticed to have some dark spotting and every day is more. I just had my period 2 weeks ago so i know its not my period.  Does anyone know what this could be? I am really worried about the spotting issue.

This could simply be some trauma to your cervix from intercourse. Alternatively, you might just be having some midcycle bleeding. In either event, as long as this does not persist, and your periods remain regular, this is nothing to worry about.

I have no idea ... I would contact your OBGYN, just to be safe. Take care.

To: Hi Dr. Plosar
You were referred by my physian for questions of IVF.  I am a  37yrs old  high risk woman that is interested in ivf, I have undetectable viral load count and healthy as can be, my husband and I were interested in the procedure and I know in Columbia University in NYC by Dr. Mark Sauer perform this service for women of high risk like myself.  Do you perform the same procedures?

I have had an IUD for almost 5 years, I started bleeding and passing clots a couple of weekends ago...  Went to have the IUD removed and found out I was about 6 weeks pregnant.  I thought I had miscarried but when I had a sonogram the same day there was a baby with a heartbeat way up in my uterus.  Also the technician told me that I released two eggs so they think I may have miscarried a twin.   I went in the next day to have the IUD removed and had a little brown discharge for about 2 days.  I also had a couple of beta screenings.  One on 09/5 (11,178) and the other on 09/07 (13,293).  Doctor said that does'nt look very promising.  I also read on the internet that you usually can't see a heart beat on a sonogram until 7 weeks.  Could I be further along?  The doctor initially thought that my uterus felt about 11 or 12 weeks.    Given all these obstacles is it probable that I not miscarry.  I have 3 children and a stepdaughter, and certainly did'nt plan on having anymore.....but now I am a little excited and definitely worried... so many different emotions.  I go back a week from tomorrow for another sono.  I am also concerned about my lower back pain.  I am also 39.
