Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I didn't go to the hospital for a check-up after taking the abortion pill. It hasn't been long since I had the abortion, and I had sex about ten days after. One day, I noticed some bleeding during sex, but I didn't pay much attention. Then, about a month later, I had sex at night and experienced stomach pain and pain in my uterus. What could be the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
Taking medication for an abortion can easily lead to incomplete miscarriage. Under normal circumstances, bleeding should last for 1 to 2 weeks. If it exceeds 2 weeks, it is important to get checked to determine the cause of the bleeding. After the abortion, sexual intercourse should be avoided for one month. Early sexual activity can easily lead to infection. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination. If there is still residual tissue, a D&C procedure may be necessary. You can also take some anti-inflammatory medication.
