How long after a natural miscarriage can an ultrasound be performed?

Patient's question:

I don't know if I did something wrong, but I suddenly had a natural miscarriage. I'm very sad. It's been a few days since the miscarriage. How long after a natural miscarriage can I have an ultrasound?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, one month after a miscarriage, when your menstrual period returns, you should visit the hospital for a follow-up check to see if your uterus has fully recovered. If you experience any other discomfort symptoms, it is recommended to undergo additional tests such as a gynecological ultrasound at the hospital to check if the miscarriage was complete or if there are any other abnormalities. If you want to determine if you have inflammation, it is advisable to test vaginal secretions, blood tests, and other relevant examinations. Typically, 10 days after a miscarriage, you can wash your hair, preferably using a hairdryer while tying it up. Pay attention to a balanced diet and adequate rest during this period. It is best to avoid sexual activity to prevent another pregnancy in the near future.
