Patient's question:
Doctor, excuse me, I want to ask you a question. First, let me tell you, I'm pregnant, but I don't want this child. So I've decided to use medication to terminate the pregnancy. I'd like to ask how long it's normal to have heavy bleeding after taking the medication.Doctor's answer:
If you choose medication abortion, some people may not have a complete miscarriage, or there may be prolonged bleeding after a complete miscarriage, lasting until the next menstrual period. However, it is generally not more than ten days. If the bleeding lasts less than ten days, a follow-up ultrasound is necessary to check if the miscarriage is complete. If it is not complete, a Dilation and Curettage (D&C) procedure may be required. It is important to maintain good hygiene of the external genitalia at all times. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery, a healthy body, and a wonderful life.
