Suggest Treatment For Nose Bleeding Followed By Miscarriage

Good afternoon. I had a miscarriage nearly 8 weeks ago and have been experiencing minor nose bleeds for the past few weeks. I only notice the nose bleed when I blow my nose and only twice has it actually dripped. Is there any connection between the bleeding and the miscarriage? Thank you.

Hello dear
Understand your concern
Yes nose bleed may occur due to hormonal changes that take place during the miscarriage. It will gradually disappear. First avoid the nose blow and apply liquid lotion around nosestril as dryness aggravate the bleeding.
Take following advice:
1. Sit down, pinch your nose just above nostrils for 10 minutes
2. Relive after 10 minutes and again after 5 minutes pinch it again till the bleeding stops
3. Take breath through mouth.
4. Do not blow through nose
5. Apply cold pack on your nose: it constricts your nose blood vessels
6. Do not lie down flat and avoid strenuous exercise like weight lifting.
7. If note resolved you should take vitamin K injection and do coagulation profile test like PT, APTT, platelet count, etc
Hope this may help you
Best regards
