What to do if there is residual tissue after medical abortion

The most feared thing after medical abortion is that there is residual tissue that has not been completely discharged. At this time, you must go to the hospital for a formal examination to understand the specific symptoms. After all, this kind of residual tissue is relatively harmful to women, and it is easy to cause infection and poor recovery of the uterus. At this time, you can use medication to treat it, such as eating motherwort or other medicines for good treatment.

Many women believe that medical abortion is simple to perform and can terminate early pregnancy without surgery, so it is a safer method of abortion. However, the success rate of medical abortion is not high, and it is easy for the abortion to be incomplete. So, what should you do if the medical abortion is not clean? Let me introduce it to you below.

1. If vaginal bleeding continues after medical abortion and is accompanied by lower abdominal pain, this may be caused by incomplete expulsion of the fetal sac, resulting in unclean medical abortion. At this time, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible for a urine pregnancy test and B-ultrasound examination. If it is confirmed that the medical abortion is not clean, you should undergo a uterine curettage. Generally, vaginal bleeding will stop within 10 days after the operation.

2. Incomplete medical abortion may also be caused by incomplete decidual exfoliation. If the amount of vaginal bleeding is not much at this time, you can take some motherwort or Chinese medicine biochemical soup appropriately, or you can inject oxytocin to promote uterine contraction to expel the remaining decidual tissue. Of course, if the amount of bleeding is more than the usual menstrual volume, the patient should go to the hospital for examination to see if a uterine curettage is needed.

It is worth noting that after medical abortion, the amount of bleeding may suddenly increase significantly, even several times the normal menstrual amount, and may be accompanied by large blood clots. This is caused by the exfoliation of decidual tissue and poor discharge. At this time, you should go to the hospital immediately for a uterine curettage to stop the bleeding.

Medical abortion refers to the use of drugs to terminate early pregnancy. The commonly used drugs are the combination of mifepristone tablets and misoprostol. However, medical abortion is only suitable for some women. Therefore, if a woman wants to terminate her pregnancy through medical abortion, she should first go to the hospital for a check-up to see if she is suitable for medical abortion. So, when is the best time for medical abortion? Let me introduce it to you below.

Generally speaking, medical abortion is suitable for healthy women who are within 5 to 7 weeks of pregnancy (pregnancy time less than 49 days), have confirmed intrauterine pregnancy, have not received glucocorticoid treatment in the past 3 months, are under 40 years old and voluntarily request to end the pregnancy. In addition, women should pay attention to the following matters before choosing medical abortion:

2. Choose a regular hospital with emergency treatment, curettage, blood transfusion and infusion facilities for medical abortion, and observe closely to prevent any accidents.

3. Before medical abortion, you should go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination to rule out ectopic pregnancy and understand the size and location of the gestational sac to help determine whether medical abortion is suitable.
