Patient's question:
It started leaking on the 12th of last month. On that day, I had a color ultrasound, and the doctor said it was leaking. It stopped leaking and there was no more bleeding by the 30th of last month. Initially, before it started leaking, I had a vaginal infection check, and the doctor prescribed three days of anti-inflammatory medication and medication for medication abortion to take together, as well as a liquid for cleaning. Now it's the 11th, and I've had a few stomach pains today with a little blood leakage. Is this a symptom of my period or something else?Doctor's answer:
After medication abortion, menstruation usually occurs approximately one month later. However, the return of menstruation after medication abortion may be affected by the complete recovery of the endometrium and ovaries, as well as endocrine disturbances, which may lead to temporary abnormalities again. This could be related to your vaginitis.Recommendations:
- Cooperate with your local doctor's guidance and seek timely treatment for inflammation.
- Pay attention to maintaining cleanliness and dryness in the external genital area, especially during menstruation. Maintain good personal hygiene throughout this period. Underwear should be soft, loose, and wide, preferably made of cotton.
- Avoid wearing down jackets, nylon, or woolen clothing. Do not wash underwear with socks.
- The use of anti-inflammatory medication should be adjusted based on your specific condition.
