Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: I just had a medication abortion. After the fetal tissue was expelled, how long will it take before the bleeding stops? How many days should I go to the hospital for a check-up?Doctor's answer:
The detached embryonic tissue is white, about the size of your fingernail, and sometimes it is wrapped inside a blood clot. Without washing the blood clot, it is not visible. If the gestational sac does not come out, the bleeding will not decrease and may even increase.If there is after an abortion, it can lead to prolonged uterine bleeding, affect uterine recovery, and increase the risk of infection and anemia. If the residual tissue is minimal, you can take Xinshenghua Granules and Compound Yimucao Capsules. If the residual tissue is significant, a uterine clearance procedure may be necessary.
