Patient's question:
10 days ago, I had a medication abortion. Since it wasn't completely effective, I underwent a D&C procedure!~~ But my leukorrhea has never been normal~ It's slightly yellowish. This morning, my leukorrhea had red blood streaks! During the check-up, I was found to have vaginal candidiasis and mild cervical erosion~ However, I received antibiotics before and after the medication abortion~ I've also been taking medication (Huanghong tablets and Jinqi tablets) since then. I just stopped taking them yesterday! What could be going on? Is it related to stopping the medication? What else should I be aware of? I had sexual activity within the past week, but it didn't go in!~~ Could that also cause infection? Please reply as soon as possible! Thank you!!Doctor's answer:
Hello, using medication for abortion can easily lead to incomplete abortion, where some embryonic tissue remains trapped in the uterine cavity. Clinically, this is irregular lower abdominal pain and persistent bleeding after the procedure. Gastrointestinal symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea after taking the medication, often accompanied by mild to moderate fever. In fact, under normal circumstances, undergoing any method of induced abortion can cause certain harm to the pregnant woman. Therefore, patients should pay attention to nursing and health care. Patients undergoing induced abortion should pay attention to self-care, such as maintaining a balanced diet and avoiding cold, spicy, and irritating foods.
