Placenta previa

2025-08-14 14:05:32
Hello Doctor, I am currently pregnant ( 6 months / 24 weeks)and have been diagnosed with low-lying placenta(complete placenta previa). Since today, I am experiencing pain in my lower abdomen. There is no bleeding or fluid leak, but I am concerned because of my condition. Please advise if I need to come for a check-up immediately or take any precautions at home. Thank you.
