Patient's question:
Last week, I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up and found out I was pregnant. Then, I took the medication prescribed by the doctor for an abortion. It has been a week now, and there is still intermittent bleeding from my vagina, though not much. Is it because the medication wasn't completely effective? What should I do?Doctor's answer:
After an abortion, this period has seen a recurrence more frequently, which might be due to the uterus not fully recovering. However, it cannot be entirely ruled out that there might be residual tissue. It is necessary to visit the hospital for an MRI examination to check. If residual tissue is found, it is best to cooperate with the doctor for a curettage treatment. During this period, it is important to pay attention and avoid strenuous exercise. In terms of diet, it is advisable to eat lightly and avoid cold foods.
