Hello Anonymous and all who insist that a woman can have a period during pregnancy,
Some women do have vaginal bleeding during pregnancy. Some even report intermittent bleeding that seems like a regular period to them. But vaginal bleeding during pregnancy is not the same thing as menstruation.
Bleeding occurs during pregnancy for various reasons, some serious and some not.
Implantation bleeding, or spotting after a vaginal exam or intercourse is not serious.
Bleeding can also be a sign of something seriously wrong, such as an infection, placental problems, miscarriage, or an ectopic pregnancy, which can be life-threatening.
Any bleeding during pregnancy must be reported to your obstetrician or midwife right away.
