Patient's question:
I would like to ask that I am 4 weeks into a medication abortion, and yesterday I took the sixth pill of Mifepristone. At around 9 PM last night, I started to see some bleeding. I want to ask if this might leave any postoperative complications? What are the common postoperative complications of medication abortion, and are there any methods to treat them?Doctor's answer:
Medical abortion involves two medications: the first medication terminates the embryo, while the second medication helps expel the embryo from the uterine cavity. When taking the first medication, bleeding may begin immediately. As long as the bleeding is not excessive, it is not a major concern. However, if the bleeding is heavy, you should seek medical attention promptly to have a uterine evacuation performed. After taking medication for abortion, proper body conditioning and attention to anti-inflammatory measures have no significant impact on future fertility.
