Patient's question:
Why does medication abortion take 8 days to check if it's completely miscarried? Can't it be done on the same day?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it usually takes seven to fifteen days, depending on your medication-induced abortion bleeding. If you have heavy bleeding, you should quickly have an ultrasound to check for any residual tissue in the uterus. If necessary, you need to have a D&C immediately. If the bleeding is not heavy, it will take about a week, and you should go to the hospital for a follow-up ultrasound to check if the abortion is complete. In fact, under normal circumstances, undergoing any type of induced abortion can cause some damage to a woman. Therefore, patients should pay attention to postoperative care and health maintenance. Patients undergoing induced abortion should take care of themselves, such as proper dietary adjustment, keeping warm, and avoiding getting cold.
