Patient's question:
Female, 24 years old, 12 days post-medical abortion, only had sex, gently touched her nipples, will it affect the endometrium? This morning's color Doppler ultrasound examination was normal. At noon, after sitting on the cool metal bench at the bank, she felt abdominal pain, and later had bleeding like her period. What should she do?Doctor's answer:
I'm glad to help you. Medicated abortion usually involves prolonged vaginal bleeding. After the procedure, a follow-up ultrasound is necessary to assess the recovery of the uterus and ensure that the embryo has been completely expelled. Post-medicated abortion, it's important to prevent infection, pay attention to avoiding cold exposure, and get plenty of rest. In terms of diet, avoid extremely cold, spicy, and irritating foods. Based on your description, if the follow-up ultrasound shows no residual tissue in the uterine cavity, the current vaginal bleeding does not require special attention and can be observed for a few more days. If the menstrual bleeding continues to increase, you should seek medical attention for a follow-up visit.
