Miscarriage/pregnancy loss

MC at 5 weeks. Do I need to see a Doctor

or do I just let nature take it's course? There's no doubt in my mind that it is a MC - bleeding, cramping etc. Not fussed about seeing a doctor either - would rather deal with this in my own way unless there's a medical reason why I should go?

Can anyone advise?

Thanks for the advice. Phoned doctors and they've asked me to go in tomorrow and provide a urine sample for pregnancy test. There's no doubt in my mind that it will be negative. Sad

Generally feeling OK about it all, just frustrated that I have to wait longer to have a second DC and hoping that it all works out better next time.

Thanks everyone. Been to see a nice Doctor today. Test was -ve as I expected. He has promised me I can go for an early viability scan next time and fingers crossed it works out better.
