During the period of ovulation, a process of follicle rupture occurs in the female body, releasing a mature egg. In this case, a few drops of ichor may be released from the woman’s genital tract. A woman will see a completely different picture on a panty liner - the discharge after ovulation, if conception has occurred, has a different character.

Discharge after ovulation

The nature of the discharge observed in a woman after ovulation is important in determining health. They can show whether ovulation has occurred or whether for some reason there is a gap in the menstrual cycle. First of all, monitoring of discharge should be carried out by women who dream of becoming pregnant in the near future. This also applies to the general state of hormonal levels, because the first signs of many gynecological diseases are changes in vaginal discharge.

1. Mucous. With stable reproductive function, the appearance of mucous discharge means that the woman’s health is in order. During this period, the body's production of progesterone increases. Under its influence, the discharge acquires a thicker consistency with a slight white color. When mucous discharge continues for a long time, gynecologists do not associate it with past ovulation. They, on the contrary, characterize processes in the body in which ovulation did not occur at all in this menstrual cycle.
2. Transparent. Normal discharge, which indicates stable functioning of the reproductive system, also includes clear mucus after ovulation. The functionality of the ovaries activates the process of removing used biomaterials from the vagina. The transparent secretions contain microorganisms, epithelial cells, mucus from the work of the sebaceous and sweat glands.
3. Brown discharge. The appearance of bloody discharge with brownish clots is the most frightening sign. The discharge does not go away for many days after ovulation, and its intensity only increases, and a suspicion of a gynecological disease appears. Cervical erosion, endometriosis, endometritis are dangerous diseases, the symptom of which is brown discharge.
4. Like egg white. On the days of ovulation, vaginal discharge increases. They acquire a slimy consistency reminiscent of egg white. This characteristic of the discharge persists until the egg is separated from the follicle; in the next couple of days everything stabilizes. This process is necessary in order to support the egg when fertilization takes place.
5. Bloody. Discharge appears 5-7 days after ovulation with a brownish-scarlet color - you need to check the woman’s hormonal levels. Bloody discharge can be a symptom of a complex disorder in the reproductive system, leading to miscarriages in the first weeks and even infertility. Bloody discharge during the wrong period of the menstrual cycle is always dangerous for a woman.

What kind of discharge if conception has occurred?

After ovulation, light brown droplets on the pad can definitely make a woman happy - a baby has been conceived. They may be spotting for several days after ovulation. Such discharge is characteristic at the moment of attachment of the fertilized egg to the walls of the uterus after conception. The fact is that the endometrium contains many blood vessels, and when implantation occurs, a small number of them are damaged. This causes implantation bleeding. It occurs 7-8 days after ovulation and some women, if they notice it, think about the beginning of menstruation.

Implantation bleeding often misleads the gynecologist and subsequently gives the wrong gestational age.

Most often, the discharge after ovulation is so scanty that only a lady who is overly picky about her health can notice it. They can last for several hours and then disappear for a while; repetition is also possible. This happens when the embryo does not attach to the walls of the uterus the first time. The discharge becomes dark in color due to the fact that drops of blood do not immediately leave the vagina, having time to coagulate.

Discharge after conceiving a child is physiological in nature - the body is rebuilt at the hormonal level for successful pregnancy. At the beginning of pregnancy, a woman's predominantly white or clear discharge is considered normal. They are designed to preserve the vaginal microflora - there must be an acidic environment to destroy pathogenic bacteria.

If the discharge flows in abundance, causing discomfort and pain, then the woman should think about checking her health. The easiest cause of heavy discharge after ovulation may be too active sexual intercourse, but a more serious reason may be the formation of cysts, fibroids and polyps in the uterus or cervix.

If conception does not occur

In the absence of pregnancy, discharge after ovulation is also a normal state of the reproductive system. They may remain slimy for several days after the release of the egg, but should not have a strong odor or blood.

Normal discharge after ovulation is characterized by:

• Continues until the onset of menstruation, does not cause discomfort in the external genital organs;
• Stable frequency of volume;
• They have no color or are yellowish;
• There is no pain during urination or during sexual intercourse;
• May intensify due to physical activity;
• Significantly change the consistency before sexual intercourse.

The sour smell of discharge after ovulation and generally throughout the entire menstrual cycle does not always mean problems with women's health. Their aroma is negatively affected by poor hygiene and the use of unsuitable hygiene products. The smell of discharge changes due to a sharp change in climate, after certain medications and in case of intestinal poisoning.

Even discharge characteristic of pregnancy may actually mean its absence. Why is this happening? The man and woman systematically prepared for conceiving a child and kept their bodies healthy. They also calculated the favorable day for conception and performed sexual intercourse according to certain rules. After all the manipulations, the woman even felt the first signs of pregnancy - pain in the lower abdomen, discharge after ovulation, indicating the consolidation of the fetus. But after a few days, the couple will be disappointed - the arrival of full menstruation.

The situation described above has recently haunted many married couples. This means that the fertilized egg was unable to implant in the uterus either the first or the second time. Failure to carry a fetus to term occurs due to the fact that, for some reason, the woman’s body does not have favorable conditions for conceiving and bearing a child.
Pregnancy failure immediately after fertilization can occur:

A woman should remember that discharge after ovulation is a physiological process, it means the normal course of the menstrual cycle. Of course, if this process is not accompanied by alarming symptoms and radical changes in the body. In order to understand the danger, you need to be more attentive to studying the nature of the discharge and, if you suspect, find out the cause. Timely treatment gives a real chance to restore women's health without consequences for the reproductive system.

Gynecologists confirm that brown discharge during pregnancy is not at all uncommon, and it is not always a dangerous sign. But it is imperative to visit your doctor when they appear. At least to make sure everything is fine.

When is brown discharge normal?

Between the first and second weeks after conception, many women experience slight brownish discharge - this is the so-called implantation bleeding. During this period, the fertilized egg attaches to the uterine cavity, which can lead to minor damage to the epithelium or blood vessels.

In this case, droplets of blood mix with natural secretions and color them. Moreover, their shade can vary from light brown to beige or pink, and the consistency can be creamy. Also, implantation discharge usually has no odor and is not accompanied by any unpleasant sensations.

Sometimes mucous brownish discharge occurs after sex due to injury to the lining of the internal genital organs.

Also, minor spotting during pregnancy may appear due to changes in hormonal levels. They often occur around the time when menstruation would have occurred, so the woman may not be aware that she is pregnant. In most cases, such discharge is not dangerous and does not cause any discomfort.

What problems can brown discharge indicate during pregnancy?

Determining on your own whether brown discharge is a dangerous sign is almost impossible. Only a doctor can do this. Most often, with such a complaint, a woman is sent for an ultrasound, which will help determine whether the pregnancy is developing normally or there is a threat of its interruption, abnormal development and other pathologies.

Threatened miscarriage or spontaneous abortion

If separation of the fertilized egg from the uterus begins, this is necessarily accompanied by bleeding. The color and volume of discharge can vary markedly: from a slight brownish smear to a copious flow of bright scarlet blood. As a rule, they have mucous patches and are accompanied by pain in the lower abdomen, as well as nausea and sometimes vomiting.

Abdominal pain and spotting may be a sign of the onset of a miscarriage

If such symptoms appear, you must immediately go to the hospital, where doctors can assess the degree of danger and choose the right tactics of behavior. If the detachment is small, and the fertilized egg is not damaged and is developing normally, conservation therapy is usually chosen. The woman is prescribed medications based on the hormone progesterone, the lack of which can cause miscarriages, and bed rest. This often helps to maintain the pregnancy.

If the egg has already been severely damaged or initially had developmental defects (which in most cases is the cause of a miscarriage), doctors can choose a wait-and-see approach or cleanse the uterine cavity from the remains of the embryo.

Ectopic pregnancy

Sometimes dark bloody discharge can indicate a very unpleasant diagnosis - an ectopic pregnancy. In such a situation, the fertilized cell is attached not in the uterus, but in another place, most often in the tube. The danger of this situation is obvious: it is narrow and not suitable for bearing a baby. Therefore, sooner or later, either the pregnancy fails or, as it grows and develops, the fallopian tube ruptures, causing internal bleeding. This is very dangerous not only for a woman’s reproductive system, but also for her life.

Ectopic pregnancy

Usually, in addition to discharge, an ectopic pregnancy causes other symptoms. Women often complain of severe abdominal pain, which can be localized in the area of ​​the affected tube. If dangerous signs appear, you should immediately go to the hospital, where treatment will be carried out, most often surgically.

Another extremely unpleasant pathology is called hydatidiform mole. The reasons for its development have not yet been fully studied. It is associated with deviations in the chromosomal composition of the sperm or with double fertilization of the egg. Since it is the father’s cells that are responsible for the formation of the placenta, instead of it, a tumor forms in the uterus, which looks like multiple cysts consisting of bubbles with liquid.

Hydatidiform mole occurs no more often than once in a thousand pregnancies.

This pathology develops in different ways, but the chances of having a healthy child are extremely low. In addition, with a complete hydatidiform mole, its tissue can penetrate muscle tissue and blood, causing metastases, most often in the lungs and vagina.
A characteristic symptom of this disease is bloody discharge, which sometimes contains bubbles. In addition, the patient may complain of nausea and vomiting, sometimes headache and increased blood pressure. Ultrasound and hCG analysis help clarify the diagnosis.

In case of hydatidiform mole, it is very important to remove the fetus and pathological tissue in a timely manner. Occasionally you even have to get rid of the uterus, since this pathology can provoke the development of cancer. If everything goes without complications, then after 1-2 years the woman is allowed to give birth again.

Placenta previa or abruption

Normally, the placenta is located in the fundus of the uterus (its upper part), and the baby is located under it. But sometimes it is located below the fetus, attaching directly above the neck. Due to this abnormal location of the placenta, it may peel off a little, the integrity of its vessels is disrupted, which can provoke the appearance of brown discharge or even bleeding. The causes of this phenomenon are often a fall, injury, or even intense sexual relations.

Placental abruption

But detachment threatens not only an abnormally located placenta. Even if everything is normal, this can happen due to injury, internal pathology or other reasons. A minor detachment poses virtually no threat. But if the area of ​​damage to the placenta is large enough, it is dangerous both for the child, who will not receive the substances he needs, and for the mother, who may die from bleeding. Therefore, going to the hospital should be immediate.

If brownish discharge appears in the last weeks of pregnancy, this may indicate the onset of labor and the passage of the mucous plug, which contains streaks of blood.

Discharge during placental abruption can be different. If it is minor, then most likely the woman will notice a few brownish drops, and with significant damage there may be severe bleeding.

Cervical erosion

Often the cause of brown spotting is cervical erosion. During pregnancy, the epithelium becomes thinner and more delicate, which leads to more frequent damage. That is why during this period women who have never had it before may experience erosion.

Cervical erosion

Most often, this disease is asymptomatic, but sometimes after rough sex or a not very careful examination by a gynecologist, you may notice scanty bleeding. Nowadays, it is also possible to treat erosion during pregnancy - this is done with the help of local medications, and not ancient cauterizations. But you should not delay therapy, as this increases the risk of developing cancer.

Infections and inflammatory processes

The cause of brown discharge can be a variety of inflammations and sexually transmitted diseases. But in this case, there are other symptoms: for example, abdominal pain or itching of the genitals. In addition, the discharge often has a specific unpleasant odor.

STDs can also cause trouble

In this case, one should not think that the woman necessarily became infected while already pregnant. Often, the causative agents of such diseases live in the vaginal microflora for years without making themselves felt. During pregnancy, immune protection decreases slightly, which provokes the development of the disease. Sometimes old, untreated infections return.

It is not easy for pregnant women to choose anti-inflammatory and antibacterial drugs, since most of them have a teratogenic effect. That is why many gynecologists recommend undergoing an examination before pregnancy and, if necessary, treatment.

What should not be done if brown discharge appears?

As we have already said, if brown discharge appears during pregnancy, you should try to immediately visit a doctor, as this can be a sign of very dangerous conditions. And under no circumstances should you:

• take medications, since it is almost impossible to predict their effect on the body of the woman and the fetus;
• use tampons - they can damage the mucous membrane of the vagina and cervix, which can lead to infection, increased bleeding and difficulty in diagnosis;
• douching - they disrupt the vaginal microflora, which potentially increases the growth of pathogenic bacteria, and can also lead to miscarriage.

Brown discharge during pregnancy is a clear reason to visit a gynecologist as soon as possible. In most cases, they are not dangerous and do not require treatment, but it is necessary to undergo examination and make an accurate diagnosis. This will help to exclude such serious situations as a threatened miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, hydatidiform mole or placental abruption, and to begin treatment in a timely manner.

information In more rare cases, a woman may experience inflammation of the internal genital organs. Surgical treatment - cleaning the uterine cavity.

In the second trimester

Premature birth

dangerous Starting from the 20th week of gestation, premature onset is possible.

Most often it occurs due to infections in the mother and fetus, frequent concomitant pathologies in women, etc. Brown discharge may occur when the cervix opens and precedes the appearance of red bloody discharge and.

This condition is also accompanied by severe cramping pain in the abdominal area and nagging pain in the sacrum. Requires immediate medical care, hospitalization in an obstetric hospital and delivery. In an extremely rare case, with an immediate response from a pregnant woman, it is possible to stop and prolong the gestation of the fetus as much as possible until it is more ready for independent life. Regardless of the stage of pregnancy

In any of these conditions, the development or exacerbation of an existing pathology in a woman is possible, which is also often accompanied by brown discharge.

Cervical erosion

information It is a fairly common pathology in modern women and in almost all cases it occurs at a young (even teenage) age.

It is a violation of the structure of epithelial cells, ulcerations on the mucous membrane. Brown, scanty, slightly spotting discharge during pregnancy occurs after contact of the damaged area with a foreign object (gynecological examination, sexual intercourse). Most often, they are not accompanied by any additional symptoms, disappear after 1 day and do not require medical intervention during pregnancy.

Inflammatory and infectious processes of the genital tract

Any sexually transmitted infections (both sexually transmitted and common bacterial) can cause brown spotting at any stage of gestation. A woman could have contracted an infection many years before conception and be a carrier of the infection, and against the background of hormonal changes and a somewhat reduced immune system, these bacteria became more active, their numbers increased, and a clinical picture of the disease arose.

A man who became a source of infection in a woman could get the disease not only through sexual contact, but also through illness:

• cystitis (inflammation of the bladder);
• prostatitis (inflammation of the prostate);
• urethritis (inflammation of the urethra), etc.

In addition to brown discharge, a woman may be bothered by:

• unpleasant odor of these secretions;
• viscous consistency;
• discomfort in the lower abdomen and pelvis.

information The most common treatment is antibiotics in the form of suppositories, vaginal tablets or oral tablets, with minimal exposure to the fetus.

Injuries to the vagina and cervix

This condition can occur due to domestic or violent damage. In cases where the injury is minor, the disruption of the integrity of the mucous membrane is insignificant, the discharge may be brown or brown-red, accompanied by discomfort in the area of ​​the injury and itching. Examination by a gynecologist in the speculum also causes discomfort and increased bleeding. Treatment depends on the extent of the damage, ranging from disinfectant solutions to surgery.

Polyps in the vagina and cervix

The expectant mother can have benign small ones both before pregnancy and manifest themselves at any time during pregnancy. At the slightest touch to the polyp (sexual intercourse, examination by a gynecologist, etc.), it begins to bleed. This manifests itself as brown spotting and is not accompanied by additional symptoms.

Treatment during pregnancy is generally not carried out, but after delivery these neoplasms should be delete, because over time, the process of cells degenerating into malignant ones may begin.

Menstruation lasts 3-7 days. During this period, up to 100 ml of blood is released. Experts call this the norm.

Many girls may be alarmed by the situation when a drop of blood comes out instead of menstruation. What is this - pathology or normal?

In today's article we will try to understand this issue. Let's find out what a drop of blood means in the middle of the cycle and instead of menstruation.

Possible causes of drops of blood

Drops of blood before menstruation are the first sign of pregnancy. Every woman should know about. It usually occurs a week before the onset of menstruation or immediately after ovulation.

If a girl has had unprotected sexual intercourse, then the appearance of a few drops of blood on her underwear should alert her. Why does discharge appear?

Let's look at how fertilization occurs:

1. The egg leaves the fallopian tube and meets the sperm.
2. Fertilization occurs.
3. The fertilized egg moves towards the uterus to gain a foothold there. This takes about 46 hours.
4. The fertilized egg is “screwed” into the mucosa, which contains many blood vessels. This is why a girl may notice a small amount of blood before her period begins.

In order to confirm or deny pregnancy, the girl is offered to donate blood.

Other signs of implantation bleeding:

1. The girl’s temperature rises (up to 37.5 degrees).
2. Heaviness and pain appear in the chest.
3. The discharge is light pink or brown. There can be no scarlet shades.
4. A little blood is released (a couple of drops). The discharge ends after a few hours.

Implantation bleeding in women is a normal physiological process. There is no need to worry about this. This is how the body tells you that conception has occurred.

But there are also pathological reasons why menstruation occurs drop by drop per day:

• Sexually transmitted infectious diseases. Among them are chlamydia, trichomoniasis, syphilis, and gonorrhea. With these ailments, menstruation may be completely absent. It is imperative that you consult a doctor for treatment.
• Endometriosis. The uterine mucosa grows and thickens, and minor bleeding can occur even in the middle of the cycle. It is necessary to undergo comprehensive treatment to restore the normal state of the endometrium. Doctors often prescribe their patients to take OCs.
• Ectopic pregnancy. The fertilized egg is not implanted in the uterus, but in the fallopian tube. In addition to minor bleeding, the woman experiences pain in the lower abdomen, dizziness, nausea, and fever. It cannot be done without surgical intervention.
• Diseases of the genitourinary system.

Causes of brown drops

If instead of menstruation there are brown drops on the pad, the reasons may be the following:

1. Girl's age.
2. Having sex life.
3. Pregnancy.
4. Lactation.
5. Taking oral contraceptives.
6. Previous surgery on the organs of the reproductive system.
7. Infectious diseases.
8. Inflammatory processes of the genitourinary system.
9. Neoplasms.

When girls begin menstruation and undergo their first menarche, brown discharge is not a pathology, but the norm. In this way, the ovaries are prepared to perform their functions.

It is not surprising that the cycle can change throughout the year. Sometimes the delay can be up to 50-60 days. There is no reason to worry.

But if such phenomena continue in the future, it is imperative to undergo a test to rule out polycystic disease and ovarian dysfunction.

Also, small brown drops instead of menstruation can also be observed in women who are in the premenopausal phase. The functions of the ovaries fade away, the amount of blood released decreases.

During pregnancy, the appearance of spotting is a bad sign. There is a high probability of spontaneous miscarriage. The reason for this may be insufficient levels of progesterone in the blood.

If such phenomena are observed, the doctor must send the patient to the hospital, where she is prescribed complete rest and appropriate treatment.

During breastfeeding, mothers experience interruptions in their periods. Minor brown discharge during this period is normal. Don't worry, after lactation ends everything will return to normal.

This is important! If brown spotting occurs in the middle of the cycle or is permanent, you need to visit a gynecologist. Perhaps the reason lies in serious diseases, for example, adenomyosis. If treatment is not started in time, the disease can lead to infertility.

Signs of normal discharge during menstruation

How should women have their periods? A normal cycle ranges from 21 to 31 days. Deviations upward or downward should alert you.

Ideally, the volume of discharge over the entire period should be about 100 ml. This indicator indicates that the woman has no problems with the reproductive organs.

Read also 🗓 What is white discharge after ovulation?

In the first days, your period may be brown. This is not a pathology. Blood is released in small volumes, so when it comes out of the vagina it has this color.

This may also indicate low levels of progesterone in the blood. It is better to take a hormone test to refute this fact. Otherwise, problems may arise with conceiving and bearing a child.

On other days, the color of the discharge should be red or scarlet. Small burgundy or dark clots are acceptable. Thus, excess endometrium comes out.

On day 6-7, the discharge may change color again. Brown spotting at the end of menstruation is also not considered a pathology.

Types of bleeding that can be confused with menstruation

There are pathological types of bleeding that a woman may confuse with menstruation. They are as follows:

1. Profuse. Often observed in the middle of the cycle. The discharge is profuse and can lead to anemia.
2. Juvenile. Very common in women in the premenopausal phase. The discharge is so strong that hemostatic medications may be needed.
3. Dysfunctional. It may appear as a result of severe stress, disruption of the pituitary gland and endocrine system.
4. Breakthrough bleeding. Spotting occurs in the middle of the cycle. Often associated with taking OCs and installing an IUD.

In addition to pathological types of bleeding, there are also physiological ones that do not require treatment.

Natalya asks:

Good afternoon I am 32 years old, weight 65, height 170. Please help me understand the ultrasound after a miscarriage - my husband and I had 2 desired pregnancies. Here's my story:
My 7-year-old daughter is the result of my first desired pregnancy. My last period was November 17, 2013. Ovulation according to the test was December 2, 2013. It was then that conception occurred. After the delay, 3 tests showed + (2nd desired pregnancy). I contacted my housing complex and was only invited to register on 01/10/14, not before. 12/28/13. 2 brown drops came out. 29.112.13. There was no such discharge, but 30 began to smear slightly again. On 12/31/13 it happened again and I immediately contacted the residential complex urgently. The doctor looked at me in the chair and said that at the time of the examination she did not see any discharge, that the uterus was enlarged, the pregnancy was progressing. I showed her a napkin with excretions. colors to which she replied that this happens. She prescribed only folic and magnesium B6. On January 1, they called an ambulance because the discharge did not stop and there were scarlet streaks in it. At the hospital, the gynecologist examined me using mirrors and said that the erosion was bleeding, the pharynx was closed, there was no indication for persistence, and he saw no reason to prescribe duphaston. Sent him home. In the evening my legs began to hurt, as sometimes happened before my period. The next day in the morning there was scarlet discharge, contractions and, as a result, a spontaneous miscarriage. The condition improved the next day. I immediately went for an ultrasound to find out if everything had worked out and if there were any problems at all (there was only slight bleeding, like light periods, no fever).
By ultrasound:
-Body of the uterus: anterior, round in shape.
-Dimensions: 60 X 49 X 58 mm. The walls are evenly thickened.
-Myometrium is “motley”, heterogeneous. At the border with the cavity and in the deep layers of the myometrium there are foci of increased heterogeneous echogenicity with cavity structures. The vascular pattern of the arcuate veins along the periphery is expanded.
-The cavity is flat and closed.
-Endometrium 4.7 - 5.0 mm; along the walls 2.0 - 3.0 heterogeneous, uneven. The middle structure of the cavity is not formed. The basement membrane is blurred.
-Cervical canal 37 mm, closed. Walls without visible reflection. Along the central canal there are rounded anechoic inclusions. The neck structure is homogeneous.
-Right ovary: 26 X 14 X 22mm. There are 2 follicles on the section, 5 mm and 6 mm.
-Left ovary: 24 X 10 X 18 mm. On the section, 4 follicles of 3 - 4 mm each are faintly visible. At the distal pole of the ovary there is an echo-negative formation of 12 X 9 mm with an anechoic inclusion of 7 mm.
There is no free fluid in the pelvis.
The iliac lymph nodes are not enlarged.

After the ultrasound I did a ber test. Still +.
Please tell me what my ultrasound means? Do I need treatment and what kind? Will I be able to get pregnant again? And what does a positive hCG test (2 strips) mean on the second day after a miscarriage? Thank you in advance.

Answers Gritsko Marta Igorevna:

Let's take it in order. Did the gynecologist in the hospital establish the fact of pregnancy? The fact is that, according to the ultrasound, there is no data confirming pregnancy, the fertilized egg is not visualized, so the test cannot be positive. I advise you to donate blood for hCG. This is the most informative analysis. If the hCG level is elevated and the fertilized egg is not visualized, then an ectopic pregnancy can be suspected. In this case, you need to go to the hospital. If the hCG does not indicate pregnancy, then wait a few months and then you can plan to conceive. Good luck to you!

Natalya asks:

Hello. I’m 28, this was my first pregnancy. The doctor gave me a due date of 4-5 weeks, but I don’t know which ones. The last M was on 04/19/12, sexual intercourse was on 05/5/12. The next M should have been around May 19-22, instead On May 17, some kind of dark brown discharge and spotting began. It continued until May 21. During this period, for 2 days in a row there was a drop of blood discharge, this is with brown discharge. Another brown discharge was repeated from May 30 to June 2. Nothing bothered me, my stomach didn’t I was sick, on the contrary, every day the signs of pregnancy, nausea, vomiting, etc. appeared more and more clearly. The doctor immediately after the examination sent for an ultrasound, said that there were problems with the fetus and supposedly Frozen, it was 06/04/12. An ultrasound (not vaginal) showed anembryonics, i.e. an empty fertilized egg without an embryo, 4-5 weeks. On the same day I was sent for cleaning, without giving a referral for hCG and a repeat ultrasound. 06/06/12 - I had an abortion. Now I doubt I was in no hurry Am I, because this diagnosis could have been a mistake and the embryo could have appeared later? And what could this brown discharge mean? And drops of blood for 2 days, could this be embryo implantation? I don’t know what to think, I’ve already cried all my tears, my soul hurts. I think I was in a hurry, for which I blame myself out of ignorance, because this was my first experience, and such an unsuccessful one. There was simply no one to consult with.

Answers Gritsko Marta Igorevna:

Natalya, I understand that you are worried, but what happened has already happened and you can’t go back. But now you have experience, plan a pregnancy in 3-6 months. and I am sure that everything will be fine for you, you will be able to give birth to a healthy baby. In the short term, you need to assess the situation over time, but if the doctors immediately sent you for cleaning, it means they were probably confident in the diagnosis.

Ksenia asks:

Hello!
I don't know what to do! Due to the fact that a chocolate cyst (30x21mm) of the left ovary was discovered, the doctor prescribed Utrozhestan (from 17 to 26 days of age). On the 29th day (and the next 3 days) of the cycle, spotting (rare drops of blood) began, not similar to normal menstruation. On day 35, the test showed 2 lines, while my chest hurt, my skin became softer, and my nervousness increased. On the 44th day, rare brown discharge and pain in the lower abdomen began. On day 47, blood test for hCG was 183.0 mIU/ml, progesterone: 31.33 nmol/l. sent for an ultrasound with suspicion of an ectopic, which the ultrasound did not confirm: Ultrasound protocol: uterus D-69; W-61; P/Z-45mm several. enlarged, in anteflexion, wavy contours, fine-grained myometrium, in the isthmus along the anterior st. subserous node hypoechoic.12x9mm; M-echo 16mm is slightly dilated, the endometrium has unevenly increased echogenicity. No fertilized egg was detected in the cavity. OD: visualized, 38x21mm, slightly enlarged, contains small liquid inclusions, 4mm in diameter along the periphery and 16x12mm corpus luteum
OS: visualized, 46x34mm, enlarged, contains small fluid inclusions along the periphery, 4-5mm in diameter, as well as with a compacted, very thickened wall, formation of average echogenicity 30x23mm. The endocervix is ​​not expanded, homogeneous. In the pelvis, no free fluid is determined less than 55ml.
Today is the 50th day from the start of the last menstruation, also nagging pain in the lower abdomen and brown discharge. I lie down and try not to stand up or get nervous. The doctor couldn’t say anything, she only suggested surgery to remove the cyst. And she did not confirm the pregnancy, saying that this was impossible due to taking morning-after pills. Please tell me what to do? I'm 30 years old and I want a child.

Answers Wild Nadezhda Ivanovna:

Repeat ultrasound. If there is no pregnancy, then with such an M-echo there should be menstruation, after which the cyst can be removed laparoscopically with the removal of adhesions and fluid. If pregnancy develops and is in the uterus, then observation by a doctor is necessary, preferably in a hospital. The presence of such an amount of fluid in the abdominal cavity requires observation and treatment by a doctor - only in a hospital. And if the doctor recommends surgical treatment, then think very carefully before you sign a waiver of surgery.

Olga asks:

Hello! I am 32 years old, I have not given birth, there have been no abortions, there have been no inflammatory diseases or erosions. Menstruation is regular, cycle 29-30 days. My periods are quite plentiful (4 drops of pads - 2 pieces per day on the peak days), painless. On the 13-14th day m.c. after sexual intercourse, moderate bleeding began (one pad with 2 drops per day) (the color was slightly lighter than during menstruation), which lasted 3 days and then stopped. There was no pain or discomfort. Previously, such bleeding had not been observed.
On the 17th day m.c. underwent transvaginal ultrasound:


The dimensions are slightly increased: 67 x 44 x 55 mm.

The uterine cavity is not dilated or deformed.
The endometrium is not hyperplastic: 14.5 x 34 mm, corresponds to the 1st phase of the menstrual cycle. Within the boundaries of the endometrium in the area of ​​the left corner of the uterus, an amorphous formation measuring 21 x 13.5 x 15 mm (endometrial polyp????) is determined to be of an ovoid form with increased echogenicity.
Cervix: 36 x 26 mm, normal size, without structural changes.
The right ovary is not enlarged: 39 x 27 x 29 mm, homogeneous mesh echostructure, slightly increased echogenicity.
Follicular apparatus: there are follicles with a diameter of 4-6 mm, the dominant one is 19 mm.
The left ovary is not enlarged: 31 x 21 x 24 mm, homogeneous mesh echostructure, slightly increased echogenicity.
Follicular apparatus: there are follicles with a diameter of 3-7 mm.

Conclusion: Endometrial polyp???. Metrorrhagia.

9.08. On the expected days of the onset of menstruation, scanty brown discharge (daub) began, which continued until 11.08. (2 days). On the morning of August 11, normal periods began, not very heavy on the first day, but on the second and subsequent days as usual. On the second day of the month, clots appeared in the form of some kind of films (shells). There wasn't much pulling in the lower abdomen (a common occurrence on the second day).
On days 5-7 m.c. 15.08 (I don’t know what date to count from) repeat transvaginal ultrasound.

The uterus is in anteflexion, located centrally.
The shape is regular, pear-shaped. The contours are clear and even.
Dimensions not increased: 66 x 43 x 50 mm.
The myometrium has a homogeneous echostructure and normal echogenicity.
The uterine cavity is not dilated or deformed. In the uterine cavity in the area of ​​the internal pharynx, an amorphous formation measuring 19 x 11 x 13.5 mm (blood clot??, endometrial polyp????) is determined to be of an ovoid form with increased echogenicity.
The endometrium is not hyperplastic: 5 x 32 mm, corresponds to the 1st phase of the menstrual cycle.
Cervix: 32 x 23 mm, normal size, without structural changes.
The right ovary is located close to the uterus, not enlarged: 35 x 22 x 25 mm, homogeneous mesh echostructure, slightly increased echogenicity.
Follicular apparatus: there are follicles with a diameter of 4-9 mm.
The left ovary is wrapped behind the uterus, not enlarged: 39 x 20 x 23 mm, homogeneous echostructure, slightly increased echogenicity.
Follicular apparatus: there are follicles with a diameter of 3-7 mm, the dominant one is 13 mm.
The fallopian tubes are not dilated. Volumetric formations are not determined.
Free fluid in the pelvis is not detected.

Conclusion: Endometrial polyp???. Ultrasound signs of chronic bilateral adnexitis.
Recommended: Follow-up ultrasound examination in a month.
After the ultrasound, there was an examination on a chair, the cervical canal was almost closed, there were no erosions. Quite heavy bleeding (light scarlet blood) was noted, as for the 5th day. No inflammation was noted.
The next day after the examination, the bleeding stopped, scanty spotting brown discharge, characteristic of the end of menstruation.

Please comment on the ultrasound results. What kind of education could this be? The doctor cannot give an answer yet. The question of scraping is raised. Is this really necessary? I am very afraid of complications from such a procedure. I would like to have children, pregnancy was planned. How could chronic adnexitis develop and progress in 2 weeks??? I have no complaints about pain or discomfort.
If you do not take any action, is pregnancy and the birth of a healthy baby possible?

If, as an option, we do not do traditional curettage, but hysteroscopy, where in Kharkov can this be done, not counting private clinics????
