[|Human|] I had bleeding in the 12th week of pregnency. Told its a retro placental clot. I ahve been given complete bedrest and injection of Susten 100. Now after 5 days bleeding has stopped. Are there still chances of any abnomalities in pregnancy or the baby. Do we have gynecologist
[|AI|]  Dear Madam, At any stage of pregnancy, retro placental clot is not a good sign. This clot is formed due to separation of placenta and furthermore, it further causes more and more separation of placenta. Placenta is that organ of the baby which nourishes the baby and breaths for the baby. So if substantial placenta is separated, there is great risk to the life of the baby. Sustain 100 you are receiving is a progestational preparation. Progesterone is known to arrest the process of abortion. However, if the baby has already been rendered non-viable, use of progesterone will still arrest the process of abortion and lead to missed abortion. Hence, I would advise you to get ultrasonography done to ascertain that baby is viable and the size of the retroplacental clot is not increasing. If baby is safe, please continue Sustain, however continue to have repeated follow-up ultrasonography. If the baby is non-viable, you will have to undergo termination of pregnancy. So ultrasonography is the key guideline for you. I hope this helps you.
