Patient's question:
I had a medication abortion about 20 days ago and had a single sexual encounter without penetration. There was bleeding afterward, which became continuous but light. Now it's been 30 days, but I still occasionally have light bleeding. The discharge is brown and continuous, accompanied by lower back pain and occasional lower abdominal pain. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Bleeding in the short term after a miscarriage is a normal phenomenon. The bleeding will gradually decrease and usually does not exceed two weeks. If it lasts longer than two weeks, you may consider an ultrasound examination to rule out any residual tissue. Currently, you can take anti-inflammatory medication and Motherwort ointment. Pay attention to hygiene and enhance your nutrition. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects women's lives but can also lead to the development of gynecological conditions. Therefore, it is best to have a vaginal discharge examination at the gynecology department of a hospital. After identifying the cause, symptomatic treatment should be administered. It is advisable to drink more water and pay attention to personal hygiene.
