Did You Have Decidual Bleeding?

What are the symptoms? Before your body expels the decidual cast, you may experience bleeding, spotting, and abdominal pain or menstrual cramps, which may be severe. When it's expelled, a decidual cast will be red or pink. It will be somewhat triangular and close to the size of your uterus.

How common is decidual bleeding?

2 Decidual bleeding does occur in some women but is fairly rare. Implantation bleeding usually lasts only a day or two. So seeing a doctor is your best bet for ruling out miscarriage and figuring out the reason for your bleeding during pregnancy.

When does decidual bleeding occur in pregnancy?

When the egg implants into the lining of your uterus, you may experience this bleeding. It usually occurs within fourteen days of implantation which is when you'd normally start your period, so it would be easy to mistake implantation bleeding for your period.
