Patient's question:
Doctor, I'm not married and don't want children, so I had a medication abortion. Hello, when is the best time to do an ultrasound after a medication abortion?Doctor's answer:
After taking medication for a miscarriage, you need to carefully observe the amount of vaginal bleeding and check if the gestational sac has been expelled. This is because medication-induced miscarriage may lead to incomplete evacuation. Therefore, 2 to 3 days after the bleeding starts, you can go to a local hospital for an ultrasound follow-up to rule out any residual tissue in the uterine cavity. During this period, it is important to rest and avoid overexertion or working overtime, as this may hinder your body's complete recovery.
