Patient's question:
Approximately one week after the flow, bleeding began. In the first few days, there was no bleeding. Then, about a week later, bleeding started again. It has been three days now, and the flow is heavier than usual, without blood clots, and bright red. What could be the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
Hello, post-abortion. Around one week, there may be a significant amount of bleeding. It is best to go to the hospital for an ultrasound to check for any residual tissue or uterine blood accumulation. You can take Amoxicillin and Motherwort Decoction orally and receive intramuscular oxytocin injections. For one month after the procedure, avoid sexual activity and refrain from eating cold, spicy, or irritating foods. Avoid cold drinks as well.In fact, under normal circumstances, undergoing any form of abortion can cause some damage to the pregnant woman. Therefore, patients should pay attention to postoperative care and health maintenance. Post-abortion patients should take care of themselves, such as adjusting their diet, staying warm, and avoiding getting cold.
