    Threatened abortion is the most common complication in the first half of pregnancy, occurring in 20-25% of cases. It is a clinical diagnosis where the process of abortion has started with bleeding and an open cervical os, but recovery is still possible. Potential causes include embryonic abnormalities, maternal factors like infection, and endocrine or anatomic issues. Patients may experience bleeding and pain. Investigations include blood tests and ultrasounds. Complications can include preterm delivery, low birthweight, perinatal death, or antepartum hemorrhage for both the fetus and mother. Management focuses on bed rest, pain medication, and progesterone therapy.
