Overview

This is a prospective study, where the investigators will monitor pregnant women at 4-23 weeks of pregnancy coming to the "Women- E.R." at "Meir" Hospital due to spontaneous -or after intercourse- bleeding or bleeding secretions. The women will fill out questionnaires regarding past illness, vaginal bleeding, and gynecologic history. Then they will undergo full examination including ultrasound. After discharge, the investigators will recommend to all the women who came due to bleeding or bleeding secretions to avoid intercourse for two weeks after the bleeding stops. Afterwards they will be monitored until their delivery date (filling questionnaires a month after coming to the E.R. and at the end of the pregnancy). After they give birth the investigators will assess the rate of pregnancy, obstetric and embryonic complications in each of the study groups.
