Patient's question:
Today is the 13th day of the surgery. Previously, the blood was coffee-colored, with black substances being expelled. Yesterday, the blood flow increased, and the color was dark red, with blood clots. There is no abdominal pain either. What is going on?Doctor's answer:
Hello, due to the trauma to the endometrium caused by a D&C or induced abortion, there may be vaginal bleeding in the two weeks after the surgery. The amount of blood is usually less than or similar to the menstrual flow, which is normal. If the bleeding lasts more than two weeks, the bleeding has not stopped, or the amount of blood exceeds the menstrual flow during this period, please seek medical attention immediately to prevent blood clots and infection.
