What is the normal situation after a miscarriage?

Patient's question:

My daughter got pregnant only two years after her wedding, but her pregnancy didn't go well. At four months, the baby was miscarried. What should be the situation after a miscarriage? I see my daughter is very unhappy every day, and I'm worried she might take her own life. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

Normal vaginal bleeding after a miscarriage should not exceed two weeks. If it lasts less than two weeks, a thorough examination with ultrasound is necessary to rule out possibilities such as retained products of conception, intrauterine adhesions, or poor uterine involution. If mental state deteriorates again, be cautious of the risk of postpartum depression. It is important to seek support, communicate more with family and friends, engage in outdoor activities and travel appropriately, and maintain a positive mindset. You can focus on pregnancy preparation a year later.
