This condition has been more commonly noted with the increased use of early ultrasound.I feel most of the time it resolves without problems.Bleeding is seen in approx.25% of women in the first 12 weeks;new studies have shown an increased risk of preterm labor later--this would bear directly on your history.Would avoid intercourse and orgasim at this time.Some vague evidence that Vit E may aid in development of placental vasculature--it won't hurt in low doses.Good luck!!
