Is it normal to have a small amount of vaginal discharge after surgery?

Patient's question:

Follow-up review results: Everything else is fine, it is said that there is fluid accumulation in the uterus.

Doctor's answer:

Medical Analysis: According to your description, it is possible to have a small amount of vaginal bleeding after an induced abortion. If the vaginal bleeding lasts more than 10 days, you should go to the hospital for further examination.
Advice: Currently, your main symptoms are: abnormal vaginal discharge, slightly yellow in color, and lower abdominal pain. There may be a possibility of infection after the induced abortion. You can undergo a vaginal discharge test to identify the cause. If there is significant infection, a dilation and curettage (D&C) with pathology examination can be performed after infection control.
Recommendations:
1. Oral antibiotics can be taken after the surgery to prevent vaginal infection.
2. Oral medication to promote uterine contractions can be taken to reduce the possibility of bleeding.
Lifestyle Care:
Recommendations:
1. Avoid tub baths and sexual activity for one month after the induced abortion. Pay attention to keeping the external genitalia clean.
2. For abnormal vaginal bleeding, it is best to go to the hospital for a follow-up examination.
