Methods of expelling uterine residues

The topic of uterine remains has become a hot topic among women on the Internet. As long as it is during pregnancy, whether it is childbirth or miscarriage, it is possible to cause residues in the uterus. If this residue is not cleaned up, it will not only cause women's gynecological diseases to be more serious but will also directly cause infertility. So, how can we expel the remnants of the uterus?

Generally speaking, the best solution to this kind of situation is to perform uterine cleaning, which is called uterine cleaning after medical abortion. In fact, uterine cleaning after medical abortion is similar to surgical abortion. From the perspective of surgical procedures, uterine cleaning after medical abortion is an indispensable part of surgical abortion. After medical abortion, you can check B-ultrasound before uterine cleaning, so that you can have a clearer understanding of the situation in the uterus. If there is a lot of residue in the uterus and it is accompanied by bleeding, a uterine curettage should be performed immediately.

If the residue is small, you can also use medicine to excrete it out of the body according to the doctor's advice. Generally, it is easier to discharge the residue in the uterus soon after an abortion. If it is discovered after a period of time, the residue cannot be discharged, and even if it can be discharged, it cannot be completely discharged. At this time, only uterine curettage can be performed.

Whether it is drug removal or surgery, patients should rest well in the later stages, pay attention to hygiene, wash underwear frequently, take baths less often, improve dietary nutrition, avoid eating spicy food, cold food and other irritating foods, do not smoke or drink to avoid infection, and maintain a stable mood.

How long do uterine contractions last after a cesarean section?

Normally, after a caesarean section, the upper and lower uterus will return to their normal size after four weeks. After the embryo is expelled, the uterus will shrink immediately. If you apply pressure on the abdomen, you can feel a hard and spherical uterine body. Its highest point is at the same level as the belly button. After that, the height of the fundus of the uterus will decrease by 1-2 cm every day. About 10-14 days after giving birth, the uterus will shrink and descend into the small pelvic cavity. Some pregnant women will suffer from cervical hematoma and edema after giving birth. The cervix will become very soft and the cervical wall will be too thin and wrinkled like a sleeve. It will take 7 days to restore to its original shape. After 7-10 days the internal os of the cervix will close. It is not until about 4 weeks after giving birth that the uterus is further squeezed and shaped, and the blood clots are continuously discharged. The volume of the uterus will gradually decrease and slowly recover.

No matter whether a woman has a caesarean section or chooses a natural birth, every pregnant woman will have irregular uterine contractions after giving birth. The degree of pain of uterine contractions is related to the individual's sensitivity level. Some people have unbearable pain, while others do not feel anything abnormal. In either case, it usually subsides in 2-3 days at the least, and in about 10 days at the least. After giving birth, the uterus returns to its normal size before pregnancy through uterine contractions, and this process also involves uterine contraction pain.

This kind of uterine contraction pain will appear within 1-2 days after giving birth. You can reduce this kind of pain by adjusting your sleeping posture, avoiding long-term sitting or standing postures, and resting in bed. You can massage your lower abdomen appropriately, and use auxiliary software such as hand warmers to warm up your lower abdomen for a little longer. Whichever method works for you should be continued for a few days, it will also be helpful.
