What Causes Bleeding Inside Gestational Sac During Pregnancy?

default
Posted on Wed, 23 Mar 2016
Question: Hi,

I'm 7 weeks pregnant and was told there was a bleed INSIDE the gestational sac. Everything I'm reading online mentions bleeding outside of the sac, but does not mention anything about bleeding inside the sac. What does this mean? And what causes it?

The bleed may occur inside the sac also but before giving my opinion I would like to see your ultrasound report.
Are you having spotting or bleeding?

I don't have a copy of the ultrasound report. I am not having any bleeding or spotting. She told me that this could resolve on its own, but she did say that it puts me at a higher risk for miscarriage, and I've already had 3 miscarriages. I'm just curious what the name of this particular bleed would be and what would or could cause it. Everything I'm reading says bleeds outside of the sac, but I'm not finding any name or info on bleeds inside.

Sorry for such a long delay in my response.
Yes,your doctor opinion is right and this bleed may be indication of future chances of miscarriage or may get resolve spontaneously.
It may be due to protein -s deficiency.
It could be due to twin pregnancy, one foetus demise.
As such there is no name for this bleeding but it may increase the chances of miscarriage.
So you should take bed rest and avoid exertion.
