White round discharge after medication abortion

After medical abortion, a white round substance will flow out. This is the so-called gestational sac. The discharge of this gestational sac indicates that the medical abortion is relatively successful. Of course, there may still be some residues in the uterine cavity at this time, and these residual substances should be promoted to be discharged in time. When the medical abortion is relatively smooth, the gestational sac will be discharged after taking the medicine for a few hours. Therefore, it is best to have medical abortion in the hospital. Let us learn about this aspect.

The fluid that comes out from the medical abortion is indeed white. The abdominal pain should not be severe after the discharge. It is recommended that you apply hot compress to the abdomen and observe the vaginal bleeding. If the abdominal pain is still severe, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for a color Doppler ultrasound examination.

Medical abortion process

1. First, the doctor must determine whether the patient is suitable for medical abortion. The patient's medical history was inquired, and a full physical and gynecological examination was performed on the patient. The examinations performed included urine pregnancy test, vaginal cleanliness, Trichomonas and fungi, blood routine and blood type, etc., and B-ultrasound examination was performed if necessary.

2. After the patient meets the conditions for medical abortion, the doctor must explain to the patient in detail the efficacy of the medication, the usage and dosage of the medication, and the possible side effects of taking the medication. After the patient agrees, the doctor prescribes the medicine to the patient.

3. Patients should take mifepristone orally for the first two days and it is best for them to fast for 1 hour after taking the medicine. When taking mifepristone, the adverse reactions are mild and most women do not feel anything. After taking the medicine, you can go home and work as usual. A few people may experience mild dizziness, abdominal pain, and a small amount of vaginal bleeding. Note: A small number of women will expel the gestational sac by taking mifepristone alone. If the bleeding is not too much, you can keep the discharge in a clean small bottle and take it to the hospital for examination on the third day (the day you originally scheduled to take misoprostol). If the bleeding is heavy, you should immediately take the discharge to the hospital emergency room.

4. Take misoprostol orally on the third day. Do not eat for two hours before and after taking the medicine. After taking misoprostol, about 70% of people will expel the fetal sac within 4-6 hours. It is best to stay in the hospital during this period and have a doctor monitor your bleeding, abdominal pain, and discharge. The fetal sac that is discharged with the blood is usually pink, fleshy tissue, and sometimes a small blister can be seen inside it. If the fetal sac is not expelled during observation in the hospital, pay attention to vaginal discharge after returning home. After 1 week, you should take the discharge to the hospital for a follow-up examination.

5. The duration of vaginal bleeding after medical abortion is generally longer than that of women who undergo curettage. Overall, the average number of days of bleeding is 14-18 days. Therefore, you should return to the hospital for a follow-up check-up about 2 weeks after the miscarriage. If bleeding persists for 3 weeks, or if the amount of bleeding is heavy and accompanied by blood clots, a curettage should be performed promptly to avoid sequelae that may affect future pregnancies.
