Patient's question:
My colleague told me three months ago that she was pregnant, but yesterday I heard that my colleague has had a miscarriage and cannot come to the office from the hospital. I want to know how many days of hospitalization are needed for a miscarriage at three months of pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
A miscarriage at three months of pregnancy requires a hospital stay of one week. For perimenopausal pregnancy with more than 70 days, artificial abortion surgery is generally not suitable. Medication and surgical procedures are typically combined. Common surgical methods include vacuum aspiration artificial abortion or forceps artificial abortion. Since the uterus is already relatively large around three months, and the uterine blood vessels are rich during pregnancy, there is a higher risk of heavy bleeding and infection during surgery. Therefore, it is generally recommended to have the surgery while hospitalized.
