What should I do if a medication abortion is incomplete?

Patient's question:

Please ask if medication abortion is not clean, must it be scraped with a curette? Can't it be used with suction?

Doctor's answer:

About 25% of medication abortions may not be completely cleared, requiring a uterine aspiration. If aspiration is not performed promptly, it can lead to intrauterine infection and result in gynecological diseases. If the residual tissue is too large, it is best to undergo aspiration. If the residual tissue is small, it can be softened with injections of estrogen, such as progesterone, and expelled through menstruation. Taking Yi Mu Cao Granules orally can promote blood circulation and dispel blood stasis. Additionally, during this period, it is essential to take antibiotics.
