Patient's question:

I don't want children, so a few days ago I had a medication abortion, but I didn't see a gestational sac. Hello, what does a gestational sac look like after a medication abortion?

Doctor's answer:

Pregnancy accident, underwent medication abortion, but did not notice the gestational sac being expelled. The gestational sac is usually a fuzzy, round object, different from the decidua and blood. It is recommended to pay close attention and observe carefully. If the gestational sac is not expelled, it is necessary to promptly visit a hospital and communicate with a doctor for an ultrasound examination to determine if it has been expelled.
