Bleeding During Pregnancy Treatment

The treatment options for vaginal bleeding during pregnancy depend on the diagnosis and the certainty of that diagnosis.

Self-Care at Home

If you begin to bleed during early pregnancy, until your doctor has seen you and given different instructions, you should take it easy. Rest and relax and no heavy lifting, strenuous exercise, sex, tampons, or douching. Drink plenty of water and try to guard against dehydration. Remember to keep track of the number of pads used and if the bleeding is increasing or decreasing. There is no home care for late- pregnancy bleeding. You must see a health care professional immediately.
