What Are The Symptoms Of Chemical Pregnancy?

A chemical pregnancy is a miscarriage that occurs shortly after a positive pregnancy test. Nearly 50-70% of miscarriages are due to chemical pregnancies. Chemical pregnancies can be identified by bleeding around the time of a regular period. In the first trimester, the fetus is too small for an ultrasound to detect any chromosomal abnormalities.
 

For women who are trying to get pregnant, a chemical pregnancy may go unnoticed in the early stage as it mimics a normal menstrual period. But for women who are keeping track of their ovulation, they will notice changes in their body and will know that they have had an abortion.
