Patient's question:
A 28-year-old woman has experienced very little bleeding during sex after an abortion. Today, 12 days later, she bled again, and her abdomen still hurts. What should I do about bleeding after an abortion?Doctor's answer:
This situation should be caused by stimulation-induced contractions. Intercourse at this time can easily lead to infection and irregular bleeding. It is recommended to take appropriate oral antibiotics to prevent infection and drink some motherwort tea. Avoid sexual activity for at least one month, maintain cleanliness and dryness of the external genital area, pay attention to enhancing nutrition, and promote early recovery. For severe postpartum bleeding patients, it is advised to seek immediate medical attention and follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment. Avoid using medication blindly to prevent the condition from worsening.
