	could you tell me what would cause an enlarged utrus? can a pregnacy do that or a tubal pregnacy? if pregnant can you still have periods?

	Answer by Dr Noopur S, MD (doctor) on Wed 04, Mar 2009 11:49pm: No one can have periods during pregnancy. Vaginal bleeding during pregnancy indicates miscarriage. There can be many reasons for the uterus to enlarge apart from pregnancy like endometriosis and fibroids. If there were fibroids they can be detected by internal exam and abdominal ultrasound. The possibility of endometriosis needs to be looked into. Detailed answer for your question: Available in paid version. - Click to pay.
