Patient's question:
I had an abortion on November 7th. Because the abortion wasn't done cleanly, I went back for a D&C on November 20th. From November 20th, after the D&C, I had a little bit of bleeding until November 30th. After November 30th, it stopped. On December 15th, it should have been my period, but as of today, December 21st, there's only a tiny bit of blood, and it looks like it's almost done. Tomorrow, I have to go for a post-abortion check-up. I have a little bit of blood now, so can I still have the check-up? If there's still leftover blood from the abortion in my uterus, can it be detected?Please answer! Thank you!
Doctor's answer:
??????Hello, you can do pre-pregnancy tests 3 days after your menstrual period ends. Even if the tests are normal, you cannot get pregnant now. You need to wait for 6 months before you can try to conceive. During this time, pay attention to a diversified diet, stay away from various harms and radiation sources, take care of your private hygiene, and maintain a pleasant mood. The occurrence of gynecological examinations not only affects the patient's body but also leads to the emergence of gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to have a vaginal examination in the gynecology department of the hospital to identify the cause and then receive symptomatic treatment. Pay attention to dietary regulation in daily life, eat light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
