Patient's question:
My cousin is pregnant but doesn't want to have a child. She secretly decided to have a medication abortion. Thirteen days after the medication abortion, she is still bleeding. What could be the reason?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the possibility of incomplete medication abortion is relatively high. It could also be due to infection or poor uterine contraction. It is recommended that your cousin visit the hospital promptly for an ultrasound examination. If the medication abortion is incomplete, a uterine curettage should be performed in a timely manner, otherwise it may lead to infection. After the surgery, it is important to rest and avoid spicy and irritating foods. Intercourse should not be resumed until one month later. Regulate physical and mental health, maintain personal hygiene, and avoid bacterial invasion due to a weakened immune system.
