Patient's question:
Your ultrasound shows 6 weeks of medication-induced abortion. On November 8th, in the morning, around 8 o'clock, the gestational sac dropped, and for the following few days, there has been continuous bleeding and discharge. I don't know if the decidua has come down. Now, on the 17th day, when urinating, if I exert force, there will be one or two drops of brown discharge. There is a slight discomfort and mild soreness on both sides of the lower abdomen, but I haven't gone for a follow-up check-up yet.Doctor's answer:
You can generally decide on medication abortion within 49 days of confirming an intrauterine pregnancy. However, medication abortion carries certain risks, including the possibility of incomplete miscarriage or heavy bleeding. Based on your current description, the duration of bleeding from your body is too long. It is recommended that you visit a hospital for a color Doppler ultrasound examination to assess the specific condition of your uterus. If there are any abnormalities in the uterus, you may need to take uterine contraction-enhancing medication under the guidance of a doctor or undergo a D&C procedure. The longer the remaining tissue remains in your body, the greater the harm to your health. Additionally, you should take many uterine contraction-enhancing and anti-inflammatory medications. Pay attention to abdominal protection—avoid spicy and irritating foods, as well as extremely cold foods. Also, refrain from sexual intercourse for the next month.
