Patient's question:
I got pregnant accidentally and had a medication abortion. The key is that I have already taken the medication, and it's been almost a month, but I'm still experiencing some bleeding. I'm a bit worried if it's affecting my health. It's been over twenty days since the medication abortion, and I'm still bleeding—what could be the reason?Doctor's answer:
The medication abortion has been bleeding for over 20 days. It may be due to inadequate recovery in the later stages or residual tissue in the uterus. It is recommended that you visit a regular hospital for a follow-up examination to check for any residual tissue. Under the guidance of a doctor, a uterine aspiration procedure can be performed. Pay close attention to keeping your abdomen warm, avoid cold exposure, and do not touch cold water. Avoid spicy and extremely cold foods, eat more fruits and vegetables, and you can also drink motherwort tea to promote the discharge of lochia.
