Patient's question:
Last Friday, I had a medication abortion observed at the hospital, and there was a gestational sac discharged. It has been exactly a week since then. I have been bleeding for these few days, and now the blood flow is quite light, with a slightly darker color.Is this bleeding normal? What kind of medicine should I take?
When will the bleeding stop?
Doctor's answer:
Currently, everything is normal. If there is no miscarriage within one week after taking medication, or if vaginal bleeding significantly increases around 10 days, or if vaginal bleeding persists for more than 3 weeks, it is important to promptly visit a hospital for an ultrasound examination to determine if there are any residual tissues in the uterine cavity. In fact, under normal circumstances, undergoing any type of induced abortion can cause certain harm to the patient. Therefore, patients should pay attention to self-care. For induced abortion patients, self-care should include reasonable dietary habits, avoiding cold, spicy, and irritating foods.
