Medical abortion has been ongoing for 16 days with continuous bleeding, what should I do?

Patient's question:

The medication abortion has been ongoing for 16 days with continuous bleeding. On the 12th day, there was no bleeding. There was no sexual intercourse during this period, and no precautions were taken. No attention was paid to how the gestational sac fell. After taking the New Super Energy Tablets, the amount of blood increased again. During this period, due to the New Year, the hospital did not implement the next follow-up examination. What harm does this do to the body? This morning, there were spasms in the lower abdomen, like tiny needle pricks. Lying down on the ground helped relieve the pain.

Doctor's answer:

After medication-induced abortion, the endometrium is damaged, and its repair requires a certain amount of time. Intercourse is not recommended until after the next menstrual period. If the menstrual period has not arrived, intercourse should not occur. Early intercourse can facilitate complete recovery. Generally, a follow-up check-up is recommended after the abortion to assess the recovery status. If there are any residual issues, it is advisable to have an ultrasound promptly if any discomfort symptoms arise. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
