How many days will the bleeding last?

Medical abortion is a common method of abortion. When undergoing medical abortion, you should first understand it so that you can clearly know whether it has any effect on the body when using it. How many days will the bleeding last? This is something many women don't know. It is normal for the body to bleed after medical abortion, but if it lasts too long, you need to pay attention to whether there are any abnormal changes to avoid causing more damage to your body.

How many days of bleeding after medical abortion:

After medical abortion, the average number of days of bleeding after the fetal sac is expelled is 18 days.

If someone is still bleeding for more than 18 days, it may be that the decidua is not completely detached, affecting uterine contraction and hemostasis; or the fetal sac is not completely expelled, leading to incomplete abortion; a small number of patients are infected after medical abortion surgery, resulting in endometrial inflammation.

If there are residual objects that are not cleared from the uterus, vaginal bleeding will be prolonged, thereby increasing the chance of infection. If ascending infection is caused, resulting in blockage of the fallopian tubes, pregnancy will be affected.

Because the bleeding time after medical abortion is long and the cervix relaxes, it provides opportunities for bacterial growth and retrograde infection. Therefore, if vaginal bleeding lasts for more than 7 days, antibiotics should be taken routinely for 3-5 days to prevent infection.

In order to recover as quickly as possible after medical abortion, you must pay attention to the following issues: Do not have sexual intercourse within one month after medical abortion to avoid infection; Do not take a bath after medical abortion to avoid reproductive tract infection. When washing your hair or taking a bath, make sure to use hot water, get enough rest, eat light food, avoid spicy food, and pay attention to strengthening nutrition. If there is excessive bleeding, you can eat some blood-enriching food appropriately.

After getting to know the bleeding after medical abortion for a few days, you should pay attention to these things when using medical abortion. Also, you should know that during the process of medical abortion, you should not be too nervous. Emotional tension is not good for the body. Women should also pay attention to this, as it will cause various physical problems.
