Patient's question:
My sister's child doesn't want it anymore because of poor growth and development. Then she had a medication abortion, which she did last week. But when she went for a thorough check-up this week, the doctor said it wasn't completely clean and there was some residue remaining. What should I do if there is still residue after a medication abortion?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, it is suspected that there may be residual tissue after medication abortion. If a careful ultrasound examination reveals that the diameter of the residual tissue is greater than one centimeter, it is recommended to undergo a uterine curettage to resolve the issue. If the residual tissue is small, oral uterine contraction-promoting medication can be taken to facilitate the expulsion of the residual tissue. After the abortion, it is important to rest properly, maintain a balanced diet, and consume more warming and tonifying foods. Avoid extremely cold and irritating foods. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
