Patient's question:
Please ask if I go to the hospital for a follow-up checkup one week after the delivery. The ultrasound showed a blood clot of 3.3×1.8mm that has not been expelled. I took medicine and had an oxytocin injection, but after two days, it still hasn't been expelled. Can the blood clot absorb on its own?Doctor's answer:
Blood clots in the uterine cavity also require treatment. It is necessary to expel this blood clot for the uterus to return to normal and to avoid affecting future fertility. By using Newborn Granules and drugs like Ornidazole together, it can help reduce inflammation and promote the discharge of blood from the uterine cavity. After treatment, follow-up is recommended. If the blood clot is gone, you can rest assured. If it still exists, which means the medication has not been effective, a D&C (dilation and curettage) procedure may be necessary for treatment.
