Past treatment and effectiveness: Currently taking Motherwort.
What kind of help do you need: Want to ask how long to rest? Is it normal to still be peeling? Decline voice messages, thank you!

Doctor's answer:

Abortion can cause significant damage to the uterus and body, requiring a longer recovery period, generally about one month of rest. Since you are still experiencing vaginal bleeding, it indicates that your uterus has not yet returned to normal, and you should focus on resting.
Medical Advice: Under normal circumstances, the bleeding after abortion will not be less than two weeks. Prolonged bleeding may be due to incomplete uterine involution, retained products of conception, or intrauterine infection. Since motherwort has the effect of promoting blood circulation and resolving blood stasis, it may cause vaginal bleeding. It is recommended that you stop taking motherwort granules and carefully observe for 3-5 days. If vaginal bleeding persists, you should visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a follow-up ultrasound to assess the recovery of your uterus.
