Patient's question:
My friend got pregnant accidentally this time and didn't plan for it, so she had a medication-induced abortion. I don't know why, but she developed spots on her face. I'd like to ask on her behalf, what should she do if she gets some spots after the abortion? I hope an expert can see this and reply to me, so my friend can get these spots treated as soon as possible.Doctor's answer:
It is common for post-abortion facial hyperpigmentation to be caused by endocrine disorders and blood qi stagnation. It is recommended to take some blood-activating and period-regulating herbs for nourishment, while also taking vitamin C and vitamin E orally. Vitamin C and vitamin E help to fade skin hyperpigmentation. Pay attention to sun protection and moisturization, using high-quality moisturizers, and consume more vegetables and fruits. Avoid using irritating skincare products. After medication abortion, have a friend do a B check-up once a week, and avoid sexual intercourse within one month.
