What should I do if there is residue 15 days after medication abortion?

Patient's question:

After taking medication for 15 days, the blood flow continues to increase. An examination revealed remnants, and she took Cephalexin and Metronidazole, resulting in the discharge of black blood. Is this normal?

Doctor's answer:

You have been on medication abortion for half a month, and the bleeding has been increasing. The re-examination suggests residual tissue with infection. You have already been prescribed cephalosporin antibiotics and metronidazole, which are for anti-infection and not for ovulation induction. The presence of black blood clots indicates that the residual tissue has not been completely expelled! For your condition, it is recommended to actively continue anti-infection. If the residual tissue is not much, medication can be used to promote its expulsion. If the residual tissue is significant, consider a D&C procedure! Rest well and avoid spicy, irritating, greasy, and cold foods!
