What Causes Vaginal Discharge And Back Pain During Pregnancy?
Hi
I am 7 weeks pregnant. Over 10 days ago, I was getting brown discharge and light spotting. I went to A&E and as it was too early the scan just showed a sac at 5 weeks. My hcg level was 23,000 which I think is high. My cervix was closed. The doctor ruled out an ectopic pregnancy. The doctor said things look ok but we have to wait for the 7 week scan.
However, since last night I am getting bad back pain and mild abdominal pain as if I am going to start my period. I am getting yellowish discharge but no spotting. My scan is in four days. Do you have any idea what this severe pain is in my back and is there something to be worried about???

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] First of all do not panic.
2] If the discharge was minimal, and has stopped now; you need not worry.
3] USG shows a sac, and no ectopic pregnancy and good HCG levels are the things in your favour.
4] Please be relaxed, do not panic. Take rest.
5] Pain in back can be due to changes happening in the body due to pregnancy.
6] I will suggest you adopt correct posture. Tab CALPOL 500mg as needed for pain.
7] Yellowish Vaginal discharge if not itching or foul smelling, can be considered as normal.
8] Please do not worry,Things will be all right. Let god bless you with bundle of joy.
I hope my answer helps you.
Thanks.
Wish you great health.
