The clinical diagnosis of threatened aboion is presumed when bloody vaginal discharge or bleeding appears through a closed cervical os during the first 20 weeks. Uterus corresponds to the gestational age. Transvaginal sonography is used to locate the pregnancy and determine if the fetus is alive.Reference: William's Obstetrics; 25th edition; Chapter 18; Aboion
