Hi,
I understand your concern.
Spotting in pregnancy ( before it's full term & due for delivery) is not at all normal, it needs to be taken care of.
- From information given by you you had old blood collected in vagina.This bleeding can be from inside the uterus ( trauma/ placenta previa/ some blow or trauma to abdomen/ high blood pressure )or outside the uterus ( infection of vagina,vaginal polyp,vaginal erosion)
- From these causes the placenta previa & cervical problem are not seen)
* They have taken HVS test for excluding vaginal infection.After abdominal sonography & blood pressure recording they will pin point the cause & start with specific treatment. Please don't worry, it can be controlled very well.
Thanks.
