Patient's question:
I have been living with my boyfriend for two years, and recently I was carefully examined and found to be pregnant. Since the conditions are not yet suitable for us to have a child, I later underwent an abortion. However, I chose medication abortion, and now it has been more than two months since the procedure. Up to now, there has been some blood in my underwear, either a little or a lot. So, I would like to consult with you: after two months of medication abortion, why am I still bleeding?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you explained, it should be confirmed that the medication abortion was unsuccessful, leaving residual embryonic tissue in the uterine cavity, which is why vaginal bleeding has reappeared after such a long time. Prolonged vaginal bleeding can easily lead to gynecological infections, especially recurrent endometritis. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that you do not delay any longer and seek medical attention promptly for a detailed ultrasound examination. If residual tissue is confirmed, it is important to undergo a Dilation and Curettage (D&C) procedure and take a course of anti-inflammatory and hemostatic medication orally.
