Patient's question:
Three and a half months ago, I was pregnant and had an abortion surgery at the hospital. In these past few days, I've occasionally felt pain in the lower part of my vagina again. I'm worried it might be a post-abortion complication. So, what additional measures should I take for the abortion surgery I had three and a half months ago?Doctor's answer:
An abortion procedure can cause certain physical damage to the body and requires gradual and complete recovery. After an abortion, it is prone to cause gynecological inflammation, thinning of the endometrium, cervical adhesion, and severe cases may lead to heavy bleeding again. In your case, it is recommended to visit a hospital for an ultrasound examination to check the condition of the endometrium and adnexa. Pay attention to maintaining local cleanliness and hygiene, wear loose cotton underwear, enhance cold prevention, and avoid catching a cold.
