Patient's question:
After 20 days of miscarriage, there was bleeding from the uterus. After taking Gongxuening for 3 days to stop the bleeding, coitus was resumed. Currently, there is some pain in the lower abdomen and waist, along with nausea and dizziness. After taking levofloxacin for a few days, why did the lower abdomen and waist pain occur? What about the nausea and dizziness? How can this be relieved? What medication should be taken?Doctor's answer:
After a miscarriage, sexual activity must be avoided for one month. Resuming sexual activity too quickly can easily lead to infection, which may severely affect future fertility. Based on the medical history, pelvic infection is highly suspected. It is recommended to undergo a gynecological examination, ultrasound, complete blood count, and other thorough tests. If inflammation is detected, antibiotic treatment should be administered to reduce inflammation. Levofloxacin and metronidazole can be used together for this purpose, and sexual activity should be temporarily avoided. Dizziness and nausea may be side effects of oral levofloxacin. If they can be tolerated, the medication can be taken as prescribed.
