O20.0: Threatened abortion

You are bleeding from your vagina. There is a risk of miscarriage.

You have been pregnant for a short time. You are now bleeding from your vagina. This kind of bleeding can mean that the pregnancy will end in miscarriage. The bleeding may also stop again and the pregnancy continue.

If the child is born that early, then it is not able to survive outside the womb. At the beginning of the pregnancy, the child’s organs are not developed enough.
