What should I do if the medication abortion is incomplete?

Patient's question:

My friend went to the hospital for a check-up a few days ago, and then said that her medication abortion was incomplete. If the medication abortion is incomplete and there is a lot of residual tissue in the uterine cavity, it may lead to heavy bleeding again and other issues such as infections. Many people choose medication abortion, but the risks of medication abortion are significant. What should you do if you discover that the medication abortion is incomplete?

Doctor's answer:

If it is found that the medication abortion is incomplete. First, an ultrasound examination should be conducted to confirm the amount of residual tissue. If the residual amount is not large, you can take Yi Mu Cao Granules or Fu Ling Granules. These medications can promote blood circulation, resolve blood stasis, and unblock meridians, helping to expel residual tissue. If the residual amount is relatively large, it is necessary to undergo a Dilation and Curettage (D&C) treatment. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
