Patient's question:

I had a medication abortion, and on the second day, there was very little bleeding. Is this normal?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the bleeding after medication abortion usually lasts for 1-3 weeks. The general pattern is: the bleeding decreases day by day. If the bleeding decreases and then increases again, or if it doesn't decrease at all or gradually increases, it is abnormal. This could be due to:
1. Incomplete abortion
2. Infection after medication abortion
3. Poor blood clotting function
Advice: It is recommended that you go to the hospital for a check-up for safety. An ultrasound examination is advisable, and if necessary, a uterine curettage may be required.
