Patient's question:
I went to the hospital for an ultrasound examination 12 days ago. The report showed that the uterus is retroverted and reduced, with a gestational sac of 0.8 cm. It was decided to undergo medication abortion. Previous treatment history and effectiveness: Now, 10 days after taking the medication, there is only a very small amount of bleeding (stopping today), but the gestational sac has not been expelled. What assistance is needed: I am wondering if a D&C (dilation and curettage) is necessary.Doctor's answer:
According to the description of the situation, this requires a D&C procedure. It is important to strictly follow the doctor's advice based on the results of a thorough examination. It is recommended to seek timely anti-inflammatory treatment. Pay attention to preventing cold exposure, avoiding cold, cool, raw, and icy stimuli to prevent the invasion of cold pathogens. Pay attention to rest, reduce fatigue, enhance nutrition, and strengthen the body. It is important to try to suppress severe emotional fluctuations, prevent strong mental shocks, and always maintain a cheerful mood.
