Patient's question:
After living with my boyfriend, I discovered I was pregnant about a month ago. After discussing it with my boyfriend, since I didn't want a child yet due to work, I had an abortion. Now, twelve days after the procedure, I noticed blood clots in my underwear. What could be going on?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, there may be a small amount of vaginal bleeding after the flow of people, with bleeding duration of 3-7 days, not exceeding 2 weeks at the longest. It is recommended that you wait for another 2 days of careful observation. If, in addition to bleeding, you need to consider incomplete miscarriage or infection-induced issues, you should go to the hospital for an ultrasound re-examination. Treatment should be tailored based on the specific examination results. Pay attention to local hygiene, avoid spicy, irritating, and cold foods, and refrain from sexual intercourse or tub baths within one month to prevent infection. Wishing you good health!
