8 wks pregnant, have on/off bleeding. dr checked said i had bloody cervix, what does this mean?

Question

should i be worried? what is a bloody cervix? he said it could be caused by the hormones?

Answer 1

Why didn't you ask your doctor???  How would we know!

Answer 2

U really should have asked him when u were there for a better picture but when u are pregnant your cervix gets engorged with blood and ANY kind of bumps or pressure can cause it to bleed (s*x,fingers,pelvic exam and sometimes just being pregnant)...If your doc wasnt worried then u shouldnt be.

Answer 3

When a female becomes pregnant, her cervix is quite sensitve and can bleed due to intercourse and imbalance of hormones while the body is adjusting to the pregnany. Its normal to have some spotting or light bleeding in the first trimester. A great website is www.americanpregnancy.org  

Answer 4

I dont think its anything bad, he told you you had a bloody cervix and if it was a bad thing he would've told you right away

Answer 5

When the doctor says things like that and you don't know what he is talking about or understand, you ask.  If he says it could be caused by the hormones then thats probably what it is.  Hormones make your cervix more sensitive and laugh too hard or even sneezing can cause a blood vessel to rupture cause some spotting.  Did he say your cervix was closed?  Either way you need to ask.  Don't be afraid to ask questions.
