Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: I started medication-induced abortion on November 22nd, and experienced vaginal bleeding on the 24th, which returned to normal about a week later. In mid-December, I had sexual intercourse with my husband (without contraception) and had vaginal bleeding on December 20th, with a blood volume less than a normal menstrual period. I had no other discomfort, and the bleeding stopped after three days. I initially thought it was an early menstrual period. However, since the bleeding stopped, I have been experiencing breast tenderness, similar to early pregnancy symptoms. What could be the reason for this? Could I still be pregnant? If I am pregnant, can I still have an abortion?Follow-up question: But could you please ask the doctor, what was the reason for my vaginal bleeding on December 20th? And if I am pregnant, can I still have an abortion?
Doctor's answer:
??????It is possible to ovulate in the month after a miscarriage, so if reliable contraception measures are not taken, there is a possibility of pregnancy. It is important to intervene in a timely manner. Take emergency contraception promptly, as it is still within 72 hours. Additionally, avoid sexual intercourse for the first month after a miscarriage. Otherwise, if pelvic inflammatory disease occurs, it can have a significant impact on future fertility.
