The featherweight star is under observation after complaining of headaches since appearing on the Leigh Wood vs Josh Warrington card. Coghill fell to a 12th round technical knockout defeat against Hopey Price in Sheffield on October 7.
Price won the WBA continental belt as he handed Coghill his first professional loss.
The 28-year-old had been knocked down four times before referee Bob Williams stopped the bout in the final round.
His trainer Stefy Bull has now confirmed is in a stable condition in hospital. Writing on X, formerly Twitter, Bull said: "Connor has had headaches since his boxing contest last week in Sheffield.
"Obviously it's devastating news for Connor as boxing has been his life since a young age.
"He's stable and resting and wanting people to respect his time during this difficult period.
