Patient's question:
A few days ago, after an abortion, I bled for several days. The amount of blood was similar to that of menstruation, but even less than the amount of menstruation. I always felt like it wasn't completely cleaned out. I plan to have my husband take me to the hospital for a follow-up check-up. Is the effect of an ultrasound and a color Doppler ultrasound the same after a follow-up check-up after an abortion?Doctor's answer:
Post-abortion follow-up is to carefully check how the uterus clears residual tissue. Both ultrasound and color Doppler ultrasound can achieve this, but color Doppler ultrasound provides a much clearer view. You can decide based on your situation, but it is generally recommended to choose color Doppler ultrasound. After a miscarriage, it is essential to take good care of your body, avoid getting cold, and eat plenty of nutrient-rich foods. You must avoid extremely cold and spicy foods.
