Patient's question:
I have had an abortion for over a week. The bleeding almost stopped the second day after the procedure. However, I don't feel any discomfort now and everything seems normal. Can I skip the follow-up check-up?Doctor's answer:
Hello, after an artificial abortion, you can go for a follow-up examination. The follow-up mainly checks the condition of your uterine cavity after the abortion, looking for any remaining placenta or other issues, and assessing whether the endometrium has been damaged. It serves as a good auxiliary examination to evaluate your ability to conceive in the future. In fact, under normal circumstances, any method of induced abortion will have some impact on a woman. Therefore, patients should pay attention to nursing and health care. Patients undergoing induced abortion should take care of themselves, such as maintaining a balanced diet and avoiding cold, spicy, and irritating foods.
