Is it normal for the bleeding time to be long after medication abortion?

Patient's question:

After medication abortion, moderate bleeding for 6 days, light bleeding for 16 days, on the 8th day ultrasound showed intrauterine residue. At the hospital, I was prescribed biochemical decoction to drink for a week. On the 20th day, ultrasound revealed a cystic mass in the right adnexa, with no abnormalities in the uterus. On the 25th day, the bleeding increased to the amount of a normal menstrual period, and I felt a bit weak.

Doctor's answer:

Considering the possibility of incomplete miscarriage, where there are residual tissues and clots remaining in the uterus, it is recommended that you have a color Doppler ultrasound examination. If the miscarriage is incomplete, a uterine curettage may be necessary. If the miscarriage is complete, it could be caused by uterine inflammation. In this case, you can try taking Metronidazole and Ofloxacin capsules. Pay attention to hygiene in the vaginal area and avoid sexual intercourse for the time being. Wishing you a speedy recovery. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects a woman's life but can also lead to further gynecological issues. Therefore, it is best to have a vaginal examination in the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Pay attention to dietary adjustments, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
