Patient's question:
Female, 26 years old, feeling some discomfort in the body, but not sure what's wrong. Please ask: How long does the blood take to stop after a five-month miscarriage?Doctor's answer:
After a miscarriage, bleeding usually stops within about a week. Some with inflammation may have prolonged residual bleeding. It is recommended to visit a hospital for an ultrasound to check the endometrial condition and remove any remnants. Repeated bleeding can lead to infection, so prophylactic antibiotics can be used. After a miscarriage, it is important to pay attention to personal hygiene, keeping the external genitalia clean and dry at all times. Avoid cold water exposure and refrain from consuming extremely cold, spicy, or irritating foods. Abstinence from sexual activity for one month is also recommended.
