Hi,
bleeding during early months of pregnancy most, but not all of the time is accompanied by pregnancy loss. Do not be worried for most of these fetuses are usually ones with some chromosomal malformations.
However, there are women who still bleed and continue with their pregnancies till term. Would be advisable to repeat the pregnancy test with blood samples, and why not an ultrasound/echograpgy.
This shall help in deciding whether you are still pregnant or not.
Its worthwhile discussing with your physician.
Thanks and great time,

Hello,
Thanks for the query.
HCG levels can first be detected by a blood test about 11 days after conception and about 12 - 14 days after conception by a urine test.
The level will reach its peak in the first 8 - 11 weeks of pregnancy and then will decline and level off for the remainder of the pregnancy.
I recommend you to repeat UPT after a week.
Also get a USG done to rule out miscarriage.
Meanwhile if you bleed heavily with cramps, consult your doctor immediately.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Dr Nilofer
