After an abortion, experiencing brown discharge during menstruation - what could be the reason?

Patient's question:

After an abortion, I had my period about twenty days later, and then I noticed brownish discharge with a sour odor. What could be the reason? There is no itching or abdominal pain.

Doctor's answer:

Recurrent small amount of bleeding due to incomplete inflammation resolution after the flow.
There is a slight amount of light brown discharge, sometimes accompanied by lower right abdominal pain - all of these are signs of inflammation.
It is recommended to receive intravenous antibiotics for three to five days. The treatment effect will be better during the menstrual period. It is essential to thoroughly treat the inflammation, otherwise it may affect future fertility.
