What is the reason for vaginal bleeding 16 days after a D&C procedure?

Patient's question:

I had a D&C procedure a while ago, but I experienced vaginal bleeding 16 days after it. I want to ask what could be the reason for vaginal bleeding 16 days after a D&C procedure?

Doctor's answer:

Within one week after the Qing Palace procedure, the vagina may seep blood, which gradually decreases in amount and eventually stops. The discharge has no odor and usually clears up within two weeks. Some people may experience prolonged bleeding, while others may only have 2-3 days of spotting, or some may not seep blood at all. All of these are normal. If the bleeding duration is less than 15 days, the bleeding amount exceeds the menstrual flow, especially if the discharge has a foul odor and is accompanied by symptoms such as fever and abdominal pain, it should be considered as an infection or incomplete miscarriage. Gynecological diseases have a significant impact on patients. Once symptoms are noticed, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. At the same time, attention should be paid to dietary issues, with a focus on light and nutritious foods. It is hoped that gynecological patients can receive professional treatment.
