Patient's question:
My wife has been experiencing abdominal pain for two months after a D&C procedure. What could be the reason for this? Is it necessary to go to the hospital for a check-up?Doctor's answer:
If it is because the uterus was not cleaned properly after an induced abortion, a uterine clearance procedure is necessary. Generally, an induced abortion does not affect pregnancy if it is not performed more than twice. However, it is essential to ensure that the uterine clearance is thorough! Otherwise, it may affect future pregnancy. Additionally, there should be no sexual activity for 40 days after the uterine clearance, as this can also affect subsequent pregnancy! The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects a woman's body but can also lead to the development of gynecological conditions. Therefore, it is best to undergo a routine 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, irritating, and cold foods.
