Patient's question:
I've been on medication for 26 days. In the recent days, I've been drinking motherwort tea and taking Amoxicillin capsules. The bleeding hasn't stopped completely, and this morning when I woke up, the bleeding suddenly increased and turned black. I have a slight lower abdominal pain. I'm very scared. I want to ask the doctor, what is wrong with me?Doctor's answer:
The blood will gradually decrease, generally not exceeding 2 weeks. If it exceeds 2 weeks, you can consider an ultrasound follow-up to rule out any remnants. Currently, you can take anti-inflammatory medication and Motherwort ointment. Pay attention to hygiene, enhance nutrition, and get adequate rest. Abstain from sexual activity for one month after the surgery. In fact, under normal circumstances, undergoing any type of induced abortion will cause some damage to a woman. Therefore, patients should pay attention to self-care. Patients undergoing induced abortion should focus on self-care, such as maintaining a balanced diet and avoiding cold, spicy, and irritating foods.
