Patient's question:
[All symptoms: I was diagnosed with an ultrasound that the embryo is too deep, not suitable for an abortion procedure. The abortion procedure also couldn't clean it thoroughly, so I had to take medication. However, seven days after medication abortion, there is still a small amount of bleeding and slight lower abdominal pain. What should I do in this situation?]Doctor's answer:
[Condition Analysis: Hello: The bleeding after medication abortion generally occurs within 1-3 weeks. The overall pattern is: bleeding decreases day by day. If the bleeding decreases and then increases again, or if it does not decrease at all or gradually increases, it is abnormal. Common reasons are as follows:1. Incomplete abortion: The main cause of bleeding after medication abortion. It is usually diagnosed through a gynecological examination and ultrasound.
2. Infection after medication abortion: If the ultrasound indicates no residual tissue in the uterus, it is necessary to consider an infection within the uterus, as the blood from the abortion provides an excellent medium for bacteria. If the condition is severe, the uterus may be tender during a gynecological examination, accompanied by fever and other symptoms.
3. Poor blood clotting function: Some people may easily develop bruises or swelling after minor bumps or injuries, suggesting that their blood clotting function may not be optimal. During medication abortion or induced abortion, this can lead to heavy bleeding or prolonged bleeding.
Treatment: Due to the various possible causes, it is best to undergo a detailed examination at the hospital for a definitive diagnosis.]
