Patient's question:
A while ago, I found out I was pregnant, but I didn't want to have it. I went to the hospital with my friend for medication-induced abortion. The doctor told me before that medication-induced abortion would lead to decidual shedding. I would like to ask how much decidual shedding is expected after medication-induced abortion?Doctor's answer:
After medication-induced abortion, the so-called "" refers to the condition of lochia. Generally, lochia clears up within about two weeks, although some individuals with specific constitutions may have it clear up in around one week. If the duration of lochia is prolonged, or if there is a change in its color, and if red substances flow out after it stops, it may indicate the presence of residual tissue in the body. It is necessary to visit a hospital for follow-up examinations such as an ultrasound. You should have a detailed ultrasound examination at a local hospital to determine whether the abortion is complete.
