Patient's question:
How long after taking medication abortion should you do a follow-up ultrasound? When doing a follow-up ultrasound, what specific areas of health are primarily checked?Doctor's answer:
After taking medication for an abortion, it is generally recommended to have a thorough ultrasound examination at the hospital around 10 to 15 days to carefully observe the complete recovery of the uterus. If the bleeding time is less than seven days and the discharge is still not stopping, it is advisable to consider an ultrasound examination at the hospital. There may be residual tissue or significant blood accumulation in the uterine cavity, and appropriate treatment should be administered based on the examination results.
