Question: I am 5 weeks pregnant and on Augmentin for a UTI since Wednesday evening. I have had zero issues until about 30 min ago when i went to the bathroom and when I wiped i had blood (not heavy). What should i do, or is this pretty normal with antibiotics while pregnant?
Brief Answer:
Stop taking augmentin and consult yoyur doctor.

Thank you. This is what it looks like when i wipe. Should i be concerned that this is a miscarriage right now or lean more towards that it is a side effect of the Augmentin?
Brief Answer:
More likely a side effect of augmentin.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
Sorry for the delay in my response.
I have seen your image and it could be most likely due to side effect of augmentin and not due to miscarriage.
But as you are 5 weeks pregnant and you had bleeding you have to go for ultrasound scan (TVS) for foetal well being.
