Hi
Dr. Purushottam welcomes you to HCM virtual clinic!
Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully gone through your case, and I think I have understood your concern. I will try to address your medical concerns and would suggest you the best of the available treatment options.
1] Please do not panic.
2] weak positive test with delay in periods can be very early pregnancy which may not be viable.
2] that can be a reason to get negative test and vaginal bleeding later on.
3] I will suggest to get USG done to look for normalcy of uterine cavity.
This will also rule out any remnants of miscarriage , if at all it has occurred.
4] I will suggest Cap DOXYCYCLINE 100mg twice a day for 5 days.
5] Negative test and vaginal bleeding mostly rules out miscarriage.
I hope my answer helps you.
Thanks.
Wish you great health.
