This is something that she should go to the doctor and find out. She needs a blood test and a complete exam to find out what is happening.

While it is possible to get a period the first few months of pregnancy, it is rare. Any bleeding during pregnancy should be reported to the doctor.

Please have her make a doctor's appointment.

It could be that she was pregnant and then miss carried causing her to start her peiod. She most definately should see her doctor.

Is there is a way we can find miscarriage by other symptoms.
What is the general reason for miscarriage?
If it is a miscarriage, what doctor generally will do?
Is it possible to get pregnant after this?

Ok, slow down.

Many women become pregnant and have a miscarriage without even knowing they are pregnant. A normal period just comes along and the girl never even knew.

You also could have had a faulty pregnancy test that gave her a false positive. This does happen also.

There is not a general reason for a miscarriage. Sometimes, the egg is not viable enough to survive pregnancy, sometimes the woman's body cannot carry the fertalized egg. But one rarely knows the reason for a miscarriage unless there are other medical conditions present.

Is it possible to get pregnant after this? Most definately. We don't even know if in fact she had a miscarriage. Like I stated above, it could have just been a false positive on the HPT and she never was pregnant in the first place.

What will the doctor generally do? As it was this early, if it was a miscarriage at all, probably nothing. There is nothing that can really be done. Later stage miscarriages require a procedure called a D&C, but not this early. Nature just takes over.

Do we need to stop having sex now? That is a question I cannot answer because I do not know that she was in fact pregnant. This would have to be answered by your doctor after a physical exam.

It sounds to me that she may have gotten a false positive and never has been pregnant, or that she is an "early pregnancy bleeder." Only your doctor can tell you this for sure.

Doctor said it might be a miscarriage, but nothing to worry on that.
But now she is getting another problem in her period time.

Her periods are so irregular now.
3rdFeb - 42 days - 17th March - 38days - 24th April - 20 days - 15th May - 15 days - 31st May.

But the period seems to be lasting for same 5days, and no change in any other symptoms and pain.

I am bit confused and worried about this.

Do i need to take her to the doctor with appointnment?

Or is it something i should consider this as emergency?

Please advice.....
