If a woman has a miscarriage soon after discovering she's pregnant and is only about 3 weeks along, will it come out on it's own or does she need medical treatment. What would they do for such a situation?

If a woman was only 3 weeks along she probably wouldn't even know she was pregnant yet because she wouldn't have missed a period yet. How do you know the bleeding isn't your period starting?

It depends on the woman and the pregnancy. What happened with my miscarriage may be drastically different than what may happen with someone else's.
With me, once it was determined that I was having a miscarriage, my OB monitored the progress of the miscarriage (through ultrasounds, blood tests and exams). Everything progressed naturally so no medical interventions were necessary. Some miscarriages are going to be like mine. I was 8 weeks 3 days along, but a shorter (or longer) pregnancy may also be able to complete without medical intervention.

You need to go to a doctor. Any time a woman has a miscarriage she needs medical attention. I am not sure what they would do for such a situation but I am sure they would want to monitor you to make sure everything has come out and to make sure you are not hemmorrhaging. Please go to a doctor. I wish you the best and I am sorry.

I had a miscarriage at 6 weeks and had no procedure. Only your doctor knows your situation and can make the right decisions for you.

Hiya. Sorry to hear about he miscarriage. I think at 3 weeks the embryo is expelled naturally and it is like a heavy period. I can imagine period pain in stomach and lower back too. Sorry i cant help more. X

If it possible that she know she miscarried she should get checked out by a Doctor. She may be at risk for an infection. If you know that your pregnant you should always call your doctor right away to monitor your pregnancy.

It comes out ok but you still need to see a doctor as you may get an infection.

Most likely, yes. The baby isn't fully formed to require medical removal of the fetus. Your body should have no problem expelling it from you body.

Sometimes it passes on it's own, other times it takes a D&C. You should see a doctor about this.
