Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. My girlfriend is only 24 years old this year. Because she hasn't prepared to have children for the time being, she went to the hospital for an abortion without pain. However, after the surgery, there was a large amount of bleeding. I would like to ask you, what should I do if there is a lot of bleeding after an abortion?Doctor's answer:
After a miscarriage, the bleeding usually stops within 4.5 days. If the bleeding does not subside or is significantly reduced, it is important to seek medical attention for a thorough examination, as there may be other underlying causes. Therefore, after a miscarriage, it is crucial to rest in bed, avoid getting cold, refrain from consuming spicy or irritating foods, drink plenty of warm water, avoid strenuous activities, and abstain from sexual intercourse. It is also recommended to eat nutritious foods. If there is a significant amount of residual tissue, it is necessary to arrange for a uterine clearance as soon as possible. Prolonged exposure to this condition can have a considerable impact on a woman's health.
