reddened friable os point towards cervicitis......but cant really rule out a threatened abortion,confused. or is it gestational trophoblastic disease -painless bleeding,as both cervicitis & threatened abortion r associated with some degree of pain

painless bleeding is the tricky part here....... i was contemplating the options. choriocarcinoma can present with profuse bleeding....nothing mentioned regarding parity of pt here. all the other options have associated pain... plz correct me if what i think is wrong

the problem with threatened abortion is that in the question they do not tell us that there is still a viable gestation. (I need this for diangnosis). And if they donīt write it down: It never happened...

I took I. But was also missing that the USG of the uterus. Is it common that cervicitis bleeds for 2 hours?
