Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. I've been on medication for three months, and I haven't had my period. I'm very scared to have a D&C. How do I get it done? Is it necessary to have a D&C for a long time? What should I do? Why can't I have a painless procedure after taking medication for an abortion? If I don't have a D&C, will it come out later?Doctor's answer:
If you are undergoing medication abortion and experiencing persistent vaginal bleeding, it may be due to inflammation or incomplete abortion. You need to go to the hospital promptly for a follow-up ultrasound. After a thorough examination, if it is caused by inflammation, you can take anti-inflammatory medication for treatment. If there is residual tissue in the uterus, a D&C procedure will be necessary. If you are sensitive to pain, you can opt for a painless D&C treatment. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
