Patient's question:
What symptoms may occur if the medication abortion is not completely effective? I had a medication abortion at home and I don't know if it was completely effective.Doctor's answer:
For medication-induced abortion, there is a possibility of experiencing incomplete miscarriage again. Generally, if medication-induced abortion recurs with symptoms of incomplete miscarriage, it may manifest as a shorter duration of bleeding, continuous leakage of blood, or the risk of heavy bleeding after the bleeding has stopped. It is generally recommended to undergo an ultrasound re-examination at a local facility 2 to 3 days after the bleeding interval to rule out residual tissue in the uterine cavity.
