Patient's question:
Is it necessary to go for a follow-up check-up at the hospital long after an abortion? I just had an abortion, and the doctor only asked me to go to the hospital for a follow-up check-up. But I don't know how long after the procedure I need to go to the hospital. Could you give me some advice? Thank you.Doctor's answer:
It is recommended to carefully check whether it is incomplete miscarriage or poor uterine contraction. It may be necessary to undergo uterine evacuation or anti-inflammatory treatment and medication application, using drugs to promote uterine contraction.Vaginal bleeding after a miscarriage usually lasts for 7-10 days, with a maximum of 15 days. If bleeding recurs with prolonged duration, a volume greater than normal menstrual flow, or accompanied by severe abdominal pain, it may indicate infection or incomplete miscarriage.
