Patient's question:
I tripped a few days ago and had a miscarriage. For the next few days, I always felt my abdomen tightening. Is it normal to have uterine contractions after a miscarriage?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if it is within a week after a miscarriage surgery, the uterus will experience contractions again, and abdominal pain may return. This is also a normal and good phenomenon. During this period, it is important to rest appropriately and avoid overexertion. Pay close attention to monitoring the amount and duration of bleeding. If it occurs within a week, it indicates that recovery is nearing normal. However, if bleeding persists for more than a week to ten days or half a month, and the flow remains continuous with spotting, it may suggest poor uterine contractions or retained tissue in the uterine cavity. In such cases, it is necessary to consult a doctor for a thorough examination.
