Low lying placenta may lead to sudden, painless bleeding from vagina.
Generally, low lying placenta at this early stage goes up and converts into a normally located placenta as the pregnancy advances and uterus size increases.
Next Steps
This situation may need regular follow up with ultrasound as the pregnancy advances.
Health Tips
