What are the effects of taking progesterone after a miscarriage?

Patient's question:

After having an abortion without anesthesia for a month, the doctor prescribed progesterone. What are the effects of taking progesterone after an abortion?

Doctor's answer:

After a miscarriage, the doctor prescribed progesterone to help promote the timely removal of residual tissue from the uterus. I suggest you get an ultrasound examination now to check how well your uterus has fully recovered, in addition to ensuring there are no residual tissues. After an induced abortion, you should not have sexual intercourse in the short term. It is recommended to wait until about 40-50 days. Pay attention to maintaining hygiene and cleanliness in the vaginal area. Wash frequently with clean water, or you can also use a weak saline solution, as salt has antibacterial and antiseptic properties.
