Patient's question:
After a week, there is still a small amount of blood and brown discharge, and sometimes the abdomen feels a bit painful. Is this normal?Doctor's answer:
Hello, after undergoing an abortion procedure, there is usually bleeding. The amount of bleeding varies from person to person. Some may not bleed at all, or they might not bleed for a few days and then start bleeding again later. Immediately after the procedure, the bleeding is not particularly heavy. As long as the bleeding does not exceed the amount of a menstrual period within two weeks, it is considered normal. If the bleeding lasts for more than two weeks or the amount is particularly heavy, it is not normal. Some may start bleeding, some may have heavier bleeding for a few days and then gradually reduce, and others may experience different patterns. As long as the bleeding is controlled within two weeks and the amount is relatively light, it is acceptable, provided there are no other symptoms.
