Not sure if I had a miscarriage or not?

Question

I just received my second period for the month of July, w/severe abdominal pains and extrememly heavy bleeding. Sometimes the pain is so bad that if I curl up in a fetal position the pain becomes a dull pain. As for the bleeding, not to get gross but it's like a waterfall.. There's no end to it. I'm not sure if it was a miscarriage or not, seeing that every home pregnancy test I took always come back as negative. If it wasn't a miscarriage what else could it be?

Answer 1

It could have been a miscarriage but you should still go see a doctor. Sometimes early in pregnancy the test will come back negative.

Answer 2

That sounds really bad! I don't know you, but I feel worried for you. Go get help immediately! I think i know what's wrong. I think you had a miscarriage and now have an infection. My mother had a miscarriage (long before she had me, but she told me this story), and she got an infection. She almost died, she lost so much blood. Go get help immediately, please.

The most common symptoms of a miscarriage are bleeding and cramping. Bleeding alone is not necessarily a sign of impending miscarriage, and may be the result of a small area of bleeding behind the placenta. Indeed, between 20-25% of women who go on to have a healthy baby will have some bleeding in the first trimester.
In the event that miscarriage is suspected, two tests can be used to determine whether a woman is indeed having a miscarriage. The first test is pelvic ultrasound. A gestational sac will be present on ultrasound approximately 5 weeks after the last menstrual period, and an embryo can usually be seen after approximately 6 weeks. By 7 weeks a fetal heartbeat can be seen. Ultrasound may show an embryo that has stopped developing, or an empty gestational sac. Alternatively, the presence of a viable embryo with an appropriate heart rate raises the possibility that the pregnancy will survive.
The second test is a quantitative Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) test. In a healthy pregnancy, the HCG level should double approximately every 48 hours. If the level is not doubling appropriately, it can be a sign of impending miscarriage. Measuring the HCG level has the added advantage of providing information about pregnancies before they can be seen on ultrasound. Additionally, it provides information about the possibility of an ectopic pregnancy. This can be difficult to distinguish from an impending miscarriage.
In some cases a miscarriage will proceed spontaneously, resulting in the expulsion of all pregnancy tissue from the uterus. Often, though, the uterus is unable to expel all the tissue and the amount of bleeding and cramping can increase significantly. In these cases, a dilation and curretage is necessary.

well usually you would get the ab pains before the bleeding at least i did when i had a miscarriage, sometimes your flow can be heavier than normal which in your case im guessing thats what is going on, you period maybe also iregualar or beginning to be iregular alot of woman who have iregular period do experience alot of blood loss and cramps. but i think you should go to the doctor they won't beable to tell you for sure if you had a miscarriage because more than likely you won't have any hcg levels left in your body espcially if your test always came back neg. but they will beable to tell you deffiently what is going on with your period also give you something to regulate them also it will help with pain

there is not any heartbeat at 5 weeks that individual isn't nicely suited yet sure there ought to be a fetal pole with the aid of 5 weeks and a heart beat with the aid of 6 the embryo ought to by no ability get smaller so i could say that they are nicely suited and you need to quickly miscarry I definitely have had 3 and discovered with the aid of extremely sound that I had lost all 3 pregnancies a million heartbeat stopped the different 2 have been given by no ability have been given a heartbeat yet extremely sound confirmed that they had stopped coming up additionally my hcg ranges the place common whilst they checked with the aid of fact it takes some days for the levels to start to drop. sorry on your loss and that i'll carry out desire and go my arms that some way some how they could have been improper yet I do think of it is not going.

Answer 5

You need to get to the doctor. This does not sound normal. If you were in early pregnancy you would not have that much blood yet..I had 3 early miscarriages before having my son and barely bled at all.

Answer 6

I dont think this is a miscarriage, although I have never had one. You should really see a doctor or something, because losing that much blood can seriously cause you to get very sick. And you shouldnt have pain like that.

Answer 7

Pregnancy test are usually pretty accurate. I have had alot of female problems=4 surgeries. You really need to check with your OB...I would highly recommending seeing a specialist. It could be a variety of things.

Answer 8

Its not normal, to be hemraging like that.. tahts not healthy for u or the bady.. it could possibly be a miscarriage... remember these test arent 100% sufficient... i would check up with my doctor, just to be sure...

Answer 9

You could have endometriosis, I know the disease well. Please check out the link below. When you go to your gyn, ask them about the painful cramping, excessive bleeding etc. When they do a vaginal exam, ask if they feel any nodularity in the cul-de-sac area, or ligament area as well. Please let me know if I can help. Hugs to you, hon- I have lost four babies, I know the pain- I pray this is not a m/c for you.

Answer 10

I guess If you were bleeding alot or felt pain. If you thin you did go to the doctors.
