Why does my vaginal discharge contain blood after a medical abortion?

There is still inflammation in the body after medical abortion, especially the lochia in the uterus has not been completely discharged. In addition, the stimulation of the medicine causes great stimulation to the female's uterus, so the leucorrhea will also appear bloody. Generally speaking, after a medical abortion, women must take good care of their bodies, otherwise it is easy to get inflammatory infections, which can then induce the occurrence of many gynecological diseases.

What are the symptoms of gynecological inflammation? The manifestations of gynecological inflammation are diverse, but generally the early symptoms are mild and easily ignored. When women experience the following symptoms, they must be alert to gynecological diseases and seek medical treatment in a timely manner. Gynecological inflammation mainly has the following symptoms:

1. Vaginitis: The main symptoms are increased vaginal discharge and vulvar itching, or burning, pain, and pain during sexual intercourse. The discharge is typically thin, purulent, yellow-green, frothy, and has a foul odor. If combined with urinary tract infection, there may be frequent urination, painful urination, and sometimes hematuria.

2. Cervicitis: Some cases are asymptomatic, while those with symptoms have increased vaginal discharge, which is mucopurulent. The stimulation of vaginal discharge can cause itching and burning sensation in the vagina, and symptoms such as intermenstrual bleeding and bleeding after sexual intercourse may also occur. In addition, there are often lower urinary tract symptoms, such as urgency, frequency, and pain when urinating. Gynecological examination revealed cervical congestion, edema, and mucosal eversion, with purulent secretions flowing out of the cervical canal. The cervix was tender, brittle, and easily bleeding when touched.

3. Adnexitis: Adnexitis can be divided into acute and chronic. Acute adnexitis is accompanied by symptoms of abdominal pain and fever; chronic adnexitis is accompanied by symptoms of abdominal pain, increased leucorrhea, etc. Chronic adnexitis is one of the causes of female infertility.

4. Pelvic inflammatory disease: acute and chronic. The acute disease has an acute onset and develops rapidly, with symptoms such as high fever, abdominal pain and distension, accompanied by nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, chills, headache, etc. Chronic symptoms include general fatigue and lack of energy, which are especially severe during menstruation and after sexual intercourse.

The main reason why gynecological inflammation cannot be cured for a long time and has a high recurrence rate is that the right medicine is not chosen. The medications used to treat gynecological inflammation are different and should be used correctly under the guidance of a doctor. What medicines are used for gynecological inflammation? The following introduces several common medicines for gynecological diseases.

1. Vaginitis

There are many types of vaginitis. For the treatment of Trichomonas vaginitis, metronidazole or tinidazole can be taken orally, and metronidazole suppositories or tinidazole suppositories can be placed in the vagina; for the treatment of candidal vaginitis, Diflucan or Sporanox can be taken orally, or Canesten suppositories or Daktarin suppositories can be used for vaginal administration; for the treatment of bacterial vaginitis, tinidazole can be taken orally, and metronidazole or tinidazole suppositories can be used for local administration; for the treatment of gonococcal vaginitis, penicillins and cephalosporin antibiotics are both effective.

2. Cervicitis

Cervicitis can be treated with systemic or local medications, but local medications are the main treatment. For patients with a small erosion area and superficial inflammatory infiltration, potassium dichromate solution or silver nitrate solution can be applied to the erosion surface for local treatment. In clinical practice, disinfectants are often used to flush the vagina. Potassium permanganate solution, chlorhexidine solution, 2% acetic acid solution and lactic acid solution can be used.

Western medicine mainly uses antibiotics to treat pelvic inflammatory disease, but long-term use of antibiotics can easily lead to the production of drug-resistant bacteria and double infections. Therefore, the fundamental treatment of pelvic inflammatory disease can adopt the combination of Chinese and Western medicine to achieve the effect of treating both the symptoms and the root cause. Chinese patent medicines such as Jinji Capsules, Fuke Qianjin Tablets, and Motherwort Granules can achieve the effects of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, softening and dispersing nodules, clearing away heat, removing dampness, and removing blood stasis. In addition, comprehensive treatments such as external application of Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine retention enema, and physical therapy can achieve better results.

4. Adnexitis

Western medicine generally uses antibiotics to treat adnexitis, such as taking penicillin, gentamicin, metronidazole, etc. to kill pathogenic bacteria. Antimicrobial treatment is prone to drug dependence, relapse, and incomplete treatment. The TCM treatment of adnexitis emphasizes syndrome differentiation and treatment. For example, for the downward flow of damp-heat type, use the anti-leucorrhea formula; for the blood stasis and heat type, use Danggui Yuanhu decoction; for the cold-damp stagnation type, use Shaofu Zhuyu decoction. In addition, traditional Chinese medicine has its own special treatments for adnexitis, such as the external application of powders, which is to grind Chinese medicines such as Eucommia ulmoides, Cnidium monnieri, and Gallnut into powder, mix them with vinegar to make a paste, and apply it on the navel.
