Period after miscarriage? Normal or alarming? Bloody details follow--?

Question

I had a miscarriage two months ago after a brief 4-week pregnancy. A blood test confirmed the pregnancy was over. At the start of my next period, I began birth control pills (Kariva). The period quit that same day, then there was a little spotting a week later.

My next period, at the end of the first course of pills, came with terrible cramps on the second full day. The flow of blood stopped. I was nearly immobile, weak and pale, and after about an hour had to throw up. Then my uterus was able to expel what had been clogging it. The blood surrounding it was dark, dark red. The thing was flat, rubbery, ropy, dark red but laced with grey, about two and a half inches long, almost that wide. I felt fine immediately (but tired).

Yes, I know this would be a good question to ask my doctor. But I'm starting here. All you amateur gynecologists out there--what's going on? Should I be worried?

Answer 1

You should see a doctor as soon as possible. It is quite probable that what you expelled was remament embrionary tissue from your pregnancy, either that or the normal reaction that the endometrium had to the pregnancy, that didn't flow out on your miscarriage. The real important thing is that you may still have some tissue left, and it might lead to severe infection or blood loss and even clotting problems. You need an ultrasound to make sure the miscarriage is complete now, and a pelvic exam to check if your cervix is closed after the explusion.
Go to the doctor now. If you kept the tissue you expelled, bring it with you. It is really important that you go, even if you feel fine.

Answer 2

Quite feasible!! I were by way of this and they may be able to uncover out if it used to be a miscarriage while you pass to a surgeon in a while after it occurred however I feel too many months have handed. It could be very unhappy to feel that it occurred and also you on no account even knew it used to be there. Yes, I too, had very heavy bleeding and cramping while I miscarried, and while you're pregnant, despite the fact that you miscarry, it'll difference your hormones that is the reason for why your menstrual cycle is exceptional now than it used to be ago.
