Does red blood always mean the worst? 😔 10w4d.

Not posting for me, but a few days ago a family member was brown spotting. She was worried but it stopped so she put it down as old blood.

Tonight she has messaged me saying she is bleeding now and it’s red! I don’t know how much but it’s red!

I’ve told her to go to hospital where hopefully they’ll scan her and check for baby.

She is on her way now.

Does red blood always mean the dreaded M word, or could there be other reasons?

I’m so worried. 😭
