When brown discharge occurs during pregnancy, it is important to go to the hospital for a checkup and use medication under the direction of your doctor for birth control and other purposes.
Normally, vaginal bleeding should not occur before 37 weeks of pregnancy. If there is brown discharge before 37 weeks, which indicates a small amount of vaginal bleeding, it may be preeclampsia or preterm labor, and you should go to the hospital in time for examination, and then apply medication under the guidance of the doctor to preserve the fetus.
1. Pre-eclampsia: If brown discharge occurs in early pregnancy, it may be pre-eclampsia. Further tests, such as blood tests for progesterone and thyroid function, are needed to clarify the cause of the miscarriage. If it is luteal insufficiency, medication such as dextroprogesterone can be taken. If it is hypothyroidism, you can take drugs such as levothyroxine sodium tablets.
2. Preterm labor: If you are late in your pregnancy and have a small amount of brown discharge, consider whether preterm labor has occurred. If it is preterm labor, you need to use some drugs to inhibit uterine contractions to protect the fetus, such as intravenous magnesium sulfate, oral ritodrine and other drugs.
If the brown discharge occurs after 37 weeks, it may be redness, which is a sign of impending labor, usually within 24 to 48 hours will be delivered, you need to go to the hospital to get ready for delivery.
