What should I do if I have brown discharge after one month of intercourse?

Patient's question:

On December 4th, I had an abortion with anesthesia. On the 29th of that month, I had sexual intercourse while using a condom.
On January 7, 2005, in the afternoon, I used a pregnancy test stick, which showed one line (negative). That same evening, I had brownish discharge, about half the amount of a thin pad. There was a slight odor.
This morning, the discharge has stopped. I’m wondering if it was my period, symptoms of pregnancy, or a gynecological issue? Thank you.

Doctor's answer:

Generally, for normal post-abortion vaginal bleeding, it is usually clean within 2 weeks. The current situation indicates an infection in the uterine cavity, which has a high probability of causing pelvic effusion. In fact, under normal circumstances, any method of abortion will have some impact on the pregnant woman. Therefore, patients should pay attention to self-care. Post-abortion patients should pay attention to self-care, such as keeping warm and avoiding cold water.
