Patient's question:
After I had a medication abortion, it's still not clean down there. I want to understand, how long does it take to be clean after a medication abortion?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, after medication abortion, the bleeding usually starts around two weeks. However, the color of the bleeding will gradually fade, and the amount will decrease. It generally will not last less than three weeks. Hmm, you should carefully observe the duration of your bleeding. If it lasts less than three weeks and you still have continuous, insufficient bleeding, sometimes accompanied by abdominal pain, then it is possible that there is residual tissue. In such cases, a follow-up ultrasound is necessary, and if needed, a D&C procedure should be performed promptly.
