Patient's question:
I had an abortion at the hospital last week, and I've been bleeding for these few days. What are the consequences of an incomplete abortion?Doctor's answer:
It is normal to have some bleeding or spotting in the first week after a miscarriage, and there is no need to worry about it. Please focus on observing carefully, take medication as prescribed by your doctor to prevent inflammation and infection, and strictly avoid sexual activity for the first month. Also, avoid taking baths for the first month. Be mindful of staying warm, and do not consume cold, spicy, or irritating foods. If the bleeding does not subside after more than a week, you should have an ultrasound examination at the hospital to determine if the miscarriage has been completely completed. If it has not been completed, common symptoms include incomplete bleeding, and there may be a risk of infection or heavy bleeding.
