Patient's question:
Today I just had an abortion with anesthesia, but there was only a little blood—is that normal? Also, how should I do the post-procedure inflammation treatment? Can I use a hot water bag to warm my abdomen?Doctor's answer:
It is best to consider undergoing a conventional surgical procedure for an abortion. Medical abortions can lead to incomplete miscarriage and cause severe bleeding. Painless abortions may result in uterine perforation. It is preferable to undergo a hysteroscopic-guided Dilation and Curettage (D&C) procedure, as it ensures no residual tissue remains post-surgery, thereby preventing severe bleeding. This is the safest method for an abortion.
