What is the reason for incomplete bleeding after medication abortion?

Patient's question:

Medical history: None
Duration of this illness: Over a month
Auxiliary tests: B-HCG 57.29
The medication abortion has been ongoing for over a month without complete clearance, and traditional Chinese medicine has been taken continuously. During the recovery period, one ultrasound and two blood tests were conducted. The ultrasound showed no remaining tissue, indicating a relatively clean miscarriage, but the patient still experiences discharge. Two days ago, another blood test showed B-HCG 57.29, which has not dropped below the 25 index. The doctor said that the remaining (villi) are affecting the body's recovery, leading to persistent discharge. Please help the doctors assess how long it will take for the patient to recover in this condition and what medications might be effective.

Doctor's answer:

If the amount of vaginal bleeding exceeds the menstrual flow and the duration is prolonged, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly. If there is still bleeding after half a month of medication-induced abortion, it is important to have a follow-up examination to ensure that the procedure is complete. It is recommended to undergo a check-up at the hospital. Avoid sexual intercourse for the time being, as it is likely that the inflammation has not yet subsided. At the same time, it is essential to rest and take good care of yourself. Wishing you good health.
