Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I am 25 years old. Last time when I had sex with my boyfriend, we didn't use any contraception, and as a result, I got pregnant. Last week, I had a miscarriage through a D&C procedure. However, on the fifth day, my bleeding suddenly increased. I would like to ask you, is it normal for the bleeding to keep increasing five days after a D&C?Doctor's answer:
If a few days after a miscarriage and D&C, uterine contractions may cause lower abdominal pain, which can lead to increased uterine contractions to expel intrauterine blood clots, resulting in a continuous increase in bleeding volume. This is a normal phenomenon.Afterward, the discharge will gradually increase, and it should not exceed two weeks. If it is less than two weeks, a follow-up ultrasound is necessary to rule out intrauterine remnants, poor uterine involution, or intrauterine infection. You can take Yimucao Granules.
