Patient's question:
On November 4th, I underwent medication-induced abortion. After the procedure, during my period this month, I noticed that my vaginal discharge was abnormal, appearing brown. What could be the reason? Is it inflammation, or was the abortion not completely clean? Since I didn't have an ultrasound after the procedure, the doctor only tested with a pregnancy test kit, which showed negative, and said everything was fine. But I've been feeling a bit worried...Previous Treatment and Outcome:
I have had medication-induced abortions twice before. Four years ago, I gave birth to a child.
Assistance Needed:
Hello, do I still need an ultrasound now? It's been one and a half months since last month's procedure. The only issue now is whether I have inflammation? What kind of inflammation might it be?
Hello, what should I do now? I urgently hope an expert can guide me. I look forward to your reply! Thank you!
Doctor's answer:
In your case, the possibility of ovulation bleeding is high. The clinical manifestations of ovulation bleeding are the recurrence of regular vaginal bleeding during the mid-cycle, usually with a small amount of blood, lasting for several hours or days, and may be accompanied by mild abdominal pain or lower back pain. Ovulation bleeding is caused by a temporary rise in estrogen levels in the mid-cycle, leading to withdrawal bleeding. It is generally self-limiting and does not require medication. It will not interfere with health or fertility. It is recommended to undergo an ultrasound examination. If the results indicate a complete miscarriage, it can confirm that it is ovulation bleeding.
