Molar Pregnancy:

A molar pregnancy is also known as a hydatidiform mole. It occurs when the tissue surrounding the fertilised egg, which would normally develop into the placenta, instead forms an abnormal mass inside the uterus.

Partial molar pregnancy :

In apartial molar pregnancy, a fetus develops but it will be abnormal and cannot survive.

Complete molar pregnancy :

A complete mole happens when there’s only placenta tissue growing in the womb. There’s no sign of a fetus at all.

• During the first trimester, vaginal bleeding varies from dark brown to bright red.
