Patient's question:
What happens if an abortion is not performed cleanly? Will it affect my ability to get pregnant and have children in the future? What should I do?Doctor's answer:
If an abortion is not completely successful, it may lead to vaginal bleeding again, with longer duration and heavier volume, or even abdominal pain. If these symptoms persist after seven days of miscarriage, there is a possibility of retained products of conception. In such cases, it is necessary to visit a hospital for a detailed ultrasound examination. If retained products are confirmed, appropriate treatment methods should be adopted based on the size of the retained tissue. If the retained tissue is not significant, taking a few days of blood-activating and blood-dispelling medication may be sufficient. If the tissue is larger, a Dilation and Curettage (D&C) procedure may be required.
