Postpartum uterine cavity unclear, ultrasound shows echoes, what should I do?

Patient's question:

Duration of onset and persistence: Two days ago, the discharge was light yellow, and today fresh red blood has appeared.
History of previous diagnosis and treatment, as well as effectiveness: None
Auxiliary examinations: Ultrasound

Doctor's answer:

Based on your condition, it is likely that there are still remnants that have not been expelled. It is recommended to consider undergoing a D&C (dilation and curettage) procedure. If the remnants remain in the abdomen for a long time, they can cause infection to the uterus and other pelvic organs, leading to endometritis or other abnormalities. In severe cases, it may result in infertility or even cancer transformation. This condition varies from person to person, and individual differences are significant. It is advised to seek a professional gynecologist at the hospital for further diagnosis and then receive symptomatic treatment.
