I still have blood clots after half a month of medical abortion

Medical abortion is a more traditional method of abortion. This method has certain risks, and incomplete abortion is one of the risks. If the abortion is incomplete and a uterine curettage is performed, it will cause great harm to the uterus. Prolonged bleeding after medical abortion may be due to incomplete decidua detachment, affecting uterine contraction and hemostasis, or incomplete expulsion of the fetal sac. Others are caused by infection after medical abortion, which leads to endometrial inflammation. Generally speaking, if medical bleeding lasts for more than half a month, you should go to the hospital for a check-up.

1. Ultrasound examination of the uterus and its appendages to determine whether there is any residue in the uterus.

Guidance: It is recommended to pay attention to rest and keep warm within one month after miscarriage, avoid eating raw, cold or hard food, and avoid having sex within one month.

2. Have you had a follow-up examination after the medical abortion? If not, you need to do a B-ultrasound to check the condition of the uterine appendages and rule out any residues in the uterine cavity. After medical abortion, vaginal bleeding does last longer, but it should generally be about a week before it is completely clean. If there are still blood clots, you should rule out any residues. In addition, if the uterus does not recover well, vaginal bleeding is also likely to occur.

3. Generally speaking, you need to have an ultrasound examination in the hospital about 10 days after the miscarriage. Complete B-ultrasound to rule out whether the miscarriage is completely clear. Normal vaginal bleeding time will not exceed half a month. If the B-ultrasound review is normal, you can use normal medication after miscarriage!

4. This phenomenon may be caused by unclean medical abortion or infection. Some are due to early menstruation.

Guidance: If the abortion is not clean, it can easily cause prolonged bleeding and infection. So in the situation you described, it is best to do a B-ultrasound examination.

5. The small amount of uterine bleeding now may be caused by poor rest after miscarriage, or not paying attention to avoiding cold, which affects the recovery of the uterus.

Guidance: If you are worried about incomplete abortion, you can do a gynecological B-ultrasound examination to determine the cause of bleeding before you can get the right treatment.
