Short answer

After a suspected miscarriage, arrange medical assessment, monitor bleeding and pain, and seek urgent help for severe symptoms.

This answers one question. It is not a diagnosis and does not replace an assessment by a licensed doctor.

At a glance

Assessment
A scan and, when needed, blood tests help clarify what is happening.
Choices
Waiting, medicines, and a procedure may each be discussed.
Urgent signs
Severe pain, faintness, fever, or very heavy bleeding need prompt care.

What a miscarriage assessment involves

A clinician may ask about pregnancy dates, bleeding, cramps and tissue passage. A pregnancy test, blood tests or a Transvaginal Ultrasound can help show whether the pregnancy has ended and whether tissue remains in the uterus. A single scan may not always give a clear answer early on, so follow-up testing can be recommended.

Practical next steps

Use sanitary pads so you can observe bleeding, rest when needed, and take only pain relief that your clinician considers suitable. Do not put anything into the vagina while bleeding unless your care team advises otherwise. If tissue passes, ask whether it should be collected for assessment. Your clinician can discuss waiting for the body to complete the process, Medical Management of Miscarriage, or Surgical Management of Miscarriage.

When to seek urgent care

Get urgent medical help for very heavy bleeding, faintness, dizziness, worsening or severe abdominal pain, shoulder-tip pain, fever, chills, or feeling acutely unwell. These symptoms can signal significant blood loss, infection, or an ectopic pregnancy and should not be judged by bleeding alone.

Questions for your doctor

Ask what confirmed the diagnosis, whether you need repeat blood tests or a scan, which management option fits your situation, how to recognise infection, and when to arrange follow-up care.

Questions people ask

Can a miscarriage be managed at home?

Some people can follow a clinician's plan at home, but assessment and clear safety instructions are still needed.

How will I know the miscarriage is complete?

Symptoms may settle, but follow-up testing or ultrasound is used when your clinician needs to confirm that the uterus is empty.
