Should I be concerned that following what
was diagnosed as a complete miscarriage,
that I have started to bleed lightly again
only two weeks later?

at 6 weeks. during following week, heavy
bleeding and cramping, follow up scan
after one week (9th July) at hospital
diagnosed complete miscarriage. advised to
do preg test after one week - positive
result (16th July). advised to do further
test and possibly go in for bloods to
measure hcg (due). light bleeding started
this morning following intercourse."
It is very hard to say what causes
bleeding 2 weeks after a miscarriage. The
blood might be due to the miscarriage
itself or it might not even be connected
to the previous miscarriage at all. It is
recommended that visit your gynecologist
to identify the exact reason for the
bleeding. A pregnancy test usually becomes
negative 2 weeks after a miscarriage.
