Patient's question:
My wife has been on medication abortion for more than ten days, and there is a fishy odor in the lower part. I want to ask the doctor what could be the reason for the fishy odor after more than ten days of medication abortion?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on your description, it seems that after a medication-induced abortion, there has been a foul-smelling discharge for over ten days, which may indicate a risk of infection. It is recommended to visit the hospital for an MRI to rule out any residual tissue. A thorough examination of the discharge should be conducted, and under the guidance of a doctor, oral antibiotics should be taken to treat the infection. Pay attention to hygiene in daily life. Change your clothes and underwear frequently, and use warm water to clean the external genitalia every day. For at least one month after the abortion, avoid sexual intercourse to prevent the infection from worsening.
