Patient's question:
Dear Doctor:Hello!
In May of this year, I had my first painless abortion, but accidentally had another one on December 16th. Initially, I took medication for a medication abortion, but because I vomited heavily, I didn’t take the medication on the third day and had an abortion instead. The bleeding had been very light in the past few days, but it has increased again today. I don’t know if it’s because of the vaginal irrigation, because I have vaginitis, so I’m really nervous. Can you tell me what I should do?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, generally after a miscarriage, bleeding lasts for about 5 days, with a maximum of no more than 2 weeks. The amount of bleeding is less than a normal menstrual period. If there is still bleeding after 2 weeks, it may be due to poor uterine contraction, incomplete miscarriage, or infection. It is recommended to go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination. After confirming the diagnosis, treatment should be administered.
