Patient's question:
Two months ago, I had an induced abortion surgery. A vaginal ultrasound examination was performed half a month after the surgery, revealing 20mm of pelvic effusion. Two months later, another ultrasound examination showed 11mm of pelvic effusion. Is this condition serious? How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
After an abortion surgery, it is important to rest and avoid overexertion. Additionally, pay attention to local hygiene to prevent infection. Abstain from sexual activity for at least one month. Also, avoid spicy and cold foods, and increase your nutrition appropriately. Regular follow-up is necessary to rule out the possibility of incomplete abortion. In fact, under normal circumstances, any method of induced abortion can cause certain damage to a woman. Therefore, patients should pay attention to self-care. Patients undergoing induced abortion should take care of themselves, such as paying attention to warmth and avoiding contact with cold water.
