What is the reason for a small amount of blood flow after taking medication for an abortion and having sex?

Patient's question:

Had sex less than a month after taking medication for an abortion. The last one or two times after sex, there was a small amount of blood flow. What's going on? Is it serious?

Doctor's answer:

1. You should avoid sexual activity within one month after medication abortion, as it may easily lead to pelvic or uterine infection.
2. Regarding your condition, there is a possibility of uterine residue, and it cannot be ruled out that there might also be inflammation.
3. It is recommended that you visit a hospital for an ultrasound examination to identify the cause and then receive targeted treatment. In fact, under normal circumstances, undergoing any type of induced abortion can cause certain harm to women. Therefore, patients should pay attention to self-care. For induced abortion patients, self-care measures include a balanced diet and avoiding cold, spicy, and irritating foods.
