Patient's question:
Due to personal health reasons, I might need to have an abortion. Currently, I am resting at home. The doctor has told me a lot. Can you please tell me if an ultrasound is required to determine if the abortion is complete?Doctor's answer:

If the bleeding stops at this point, it is necessary to have a timely ultrasound examination to determine if the miscarriage is complete. This requires careful examination to prevent it from being retained in the uterine cavity for a long time, which may lead to other abnormalities and affect recovery.It is recommended that you rest and avoid cold exposure for more than half a month after this. Increase your nutrition, avoid sexual intercourse and (bānyù - hot tubs or baths), and avoid contact with extremely cold irritants.
