What should be done about bleeding after ectopic pregnancy surgery?

Patient's question:

The last pregnancy was an ectopic pregnancy. Surgery was performed to remove the embryo, and since the ectopic pregnancy surgery, there has been continuous bleeding. What should be done?

Doctor's answer:

After ectopic pregnancy surgery, the wound may continue to heal for about a week. If it is less than a week and there is no increasing trend in recurrence, it may indicate wound infection or poor scarring. In such cases, it may be necessary to consider taking topical anti-inflammatory medications or returning to the hospital for re-examination. Intravenous infusion can also help with the healing process. Pay attention to your diet and avoid strenuous activities.
