I just visited my OB last July 30 for my second Transvaginal
U/S. We just hear my baby’s heartbeat for the first time, I am so happy that he
has 143 bmp. He is now 7w5d in gestation And it was a good sign; it’s just
bothering me that my OB detected that I have subchorionic hemorrhage although
it is a cm. It really worried me a lot, Dra. Delos Reyes gave me another batch
of Duvagen
and additional Duphaston (Dydrogesterone) because I have a history of 2
consecutive miscarriages. I hope this one’s goes well. And I hope my baby will
be safe.
I have Facts here regarding the following base on the explanation of my doctor.
Subchorionic Hemorrhage is bleeding behind the placenta, often
caused by a clot. In most cases, this clot will dissolve away, resolving
the problem and allowing the pregnancy to progress normally. It may take
several weeks for this clot to dissolve. Treatment for a Subchorionic
hemorrhage is typically bed rest.
Rarely, the clot dissects between the placenta and the attachment
to mother. This may lead to placental abruption. Risk factors that
may increase the chance of experiencing this include high blood pressure,
smoking and cocaine use. Symptoms may include:
- contractions that don't stop
- pain in the uterus
- tenderness in the abdomen over the uterus
- vaginal bleeding
- pain in the uterus
- tenderness in the abdomen over the uterus
- vaginal bleeding
If you experience these symptoms, you should contact your
physician immediately. Treatment of placental abruption will vary
according to your particular state. If the separation of the placenta is
small, the baby isn't in distress, and your condition is stable, you may be
able to go home and continue the pregnancy with frequent checkups. If the
separation is moderate to severe but the baby is not in distress and your
condition is stable, the doctor may induce labor and perform a vaginal
delivery.
Duphaston (Dydrogesterone)In women, progesterone is responsible for
the development of a healthy womb lining (endometrium) that is necessary for
pregnancy. The body produces progesterone at certain times of the menstrual cycle,
causing the womb lining to flourish. If a fertilized egg does not attach to the
womb lining by the end of the monthly menstrual cycle, the levels of progesterone in the body decrease. This causes the
body to shed the womb lining (a menstrual ‘period’). If a fertilized egg
successfully attaches to the womb lining by the end of the monthly cycle, progesterone levels in the body remain high. This helps
maintain a healthy womb lining for the ongoing pregnancy.As dydrogesterone
helps regulate the healthy growth and normal shedding of the womb lining, it
may be used in the treatment of menstrual disorders such as absent, irregular
or painful menstrual periods, infertility, premenstrual syndrome and endometriosis.
It may also be used to minimise the overgrowth of the womb lining due to
oestrogen (the main female sex hormone) in hormone replacement therapy (HRT)
following menopause.
By maintaining the womb lining, dydrogesterone is also useful in helping
prevent miscarriage (spontaneous abortion) in women who have suffered repeated
miscarriages or who may miscarry
