Patient's question:
These past few days, I went to the hospital to have a medication abortion, but I don't know why I always smell a fishy odor. Is it normal for a medication abortion to have a fishy odor?Doctor's answer:
If there is a fishy odor, it may still be related to vaginitis. This is not normal. It is recommended to pay close attention and carefully observe, change underwear and sanitary pads frequently, pay attention to personal hygiene, and avoid spicy, irritating, and extremely cold foods. After a week of medication abortion, go to the hospital for a follow-up examination to check if there are any residual tissues in the uterus. If there are no residual tissues, it is not a big deal. If there is skin peeling or abdominal pain, you can take blood-activating and blood-stagnation-reducing medication orally.
