Patient's question:
I had an abortion just half a month ago. About 10 days after the surgery, I went to the hospital for a follow-up check-up and found that there was still some placenta residue. I immediately had a D&C procedure done. The doctor prescribed some medication for me to take home. However, these past few days, I've been experiencing pain in my abdomen and lower area. When I went back to the hospital, I was diagnosed with endometritis after a thorough examination.Doctor's answer:
Incomplete miscarriage, slight pain in the lower abdomen on both sides is a major symptom of endometritis. It is recommended to endure anti-inflammatory treatment and consider intravenous anti-inflammatory medication during the next menstrual period. However, pay attention to your diet. It is best to actively rest and recover after a miscarriage, avoiding extremely cold and irritating foods. Additionally, sexual activity should be strictly prohibited for a short period. It is advisable to visit the hospital promptly after the next menstrual period to check the complete recovery of the uterus. In addition to treating gynecological diseases, patients are advised to pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a cheerful mood to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process.
