Medical abortion is a method of abortion that many people choose when they have an unexpected pregnancy and are still in the early stages of pregnancy. Compared with surgical abortion, medical abortion causes less harm to the human body. However, many people will have black blood after medical abortion. This may be caused by poor uterine contraction after medical abortion. Therefore, care after medical abortion is still very important. Next, I will introduce to you the care methods after medical abortion! 1. Precautions after medical abortion 1. Get adequate rest within 2 weeks after miscarriage, eat nutritious food, and avoid heavy physical labor. 2. Pay attention to the cleanliness of the perineum. Do not take a bath or have sexual intercourse when vaginal bleeding has not stopped. 3. In the first 2 to 3 days after abortion, the amount of vaginal bleeding is generally equivalent to or slightly more than the menstrual amount. If the amount of vaginal bleeding is heavy or persistent, seek medical attention promptly. 3. Patients with no tissue discharge should be observed for 2 weeks after medication, and attention should be paid to whether there is any tissue discharge during the period of large and small bowel movements. Weekly urine pregnancy tests. 4. Ovulation may resume soon after miscarriage, so contraceptive measures should be taken to avoid pregnancy again. 5. You need to stay in the hospital for observation for 1 hour after the tissue is discharged. If the vaginal bleeding is not too much, you can go home and rest. 2. Causes and treatment of bleeding after medical abortion Bleeding after medical abortion usually lasts for 1-2 weeks. The general manifestation is that the bleeding becomes less and less every day. If the bleeding decreases and then increases, or does not decrease at all or gradually increases, it is abnormal. The common reasons are as follows: Incomplete abortion: The main cause of bleeding after medical abortion, which can generally be determined through gynecological examination and B-ultrasound Infection after medical abortion: If the ultrasound shows that there is no residue in the uterus, then intrauterine infection should be considered, because the blood from abortion is a good culture medium for bacteria. If the situation is serious, the uterus will be tender during gynecological examination, and there will also be fever and other symptoms. Poor blood coagulation function: Some people are prone to bruises or bulges after slight touching or clamping, which may indicate that the person's blood coagulation function is not very good. During medical abortion or surgical abortion, there may be heavy bleeding or prolonged bleeding. Treatment: Because there are many reasons, it is best to go to the hospital for a detailed examination before making a judgment 3. Reasons for prolonged bleeding after uterine curettage The duration of bleeding after uterine curettage varies from person to person. Generally, it will be clean within one week. The reasons why it cannot be clean are basically the same as above. In order to prevent infection, doctors will generally use some antibiotics to terminate the pregnancy. This is the latest development in the past 20 years. Currently, the commonly used drugs are mifepristone (ru486) and prostaglandins. The former causes degeneration and necrosis of the uterine decidua and softening of the cervix, while the latter causes uterine contraction and promotes the expulsion of the embryo. Medical abortion is simple, effective, non-traumatic, and avoids the complications that may be caused by entering the uterine cavity. It is currently used to terminate pregnancies within 8 weeks. |
