Patient's question:
I didn't plan to have children, but I got pregnant unexpectedly. During the thorough check-up, it was still less than a month. I underwent medication-induced abortion. However, it wasn't completely cleared, so I had a D&C (dilation and curettage) surgery. It has been a week since the skin started to break, but there is no sign of stopping. Doctor, how many days after an incomplete medication abortion does the skin break, and how long does it usually last?Doctor's answer:
Post-evacuation vaginal bleeding after a D&C procedure should occur within two weeks, with the amount of bleeding not exceeding the normal menstrual flow and gradually increasing. If the bleeding is heavy or prolonged, it may be due to poor uterine contraction, and medication to enhance uterine tone can be used for treatment. Rest and avoid getting cold after the D&C procedure to prevent the alleviation of vaginal bleeding symptoms. A postoperative check-up is required two weeks after the procedure to examine the uterine condition using the "Soul Dissipation Powder" test.
