Blood clots with tender meat after medical abortion

Many people like to use medical abortion to solve the problem of unwanted pregnancy. Medical abortion mainly uses drugs to expel the gestational sac and blood clots from the body. Some people found that there was tender meat in the blood clot after undergoing medical abortion. When this happens, many people will worry whether there is a problem. But in fact, many times, the tender meat inside the blood clot is what we often refer to as the gestational sac. Below are some specific instructions for these, I hope they can help you resolve your doubts and concerns.

How to judge whether medical abortion is successful and complete

On the fourth day of taking the medication, that is, after the last dose of the medication, women usually expel the embryonic tissue within 4-6 hours. Generally, after the blood clot is discharged, the abdominal pain gradually stops and the amount of bleeding is greatly reduced. However, whether it is completely discharged needs to be identified. Medical abortion is successful only when the complete embryonic tissue is eliminated.

Identification of the blood clot is a very important step. The method is to put the menstrual blood in a container, add water and gently rinse it. After the blood clot disappears, if you see a small water bag, sometimes you can see something that looks a bit like a shrimp, which is the embryo. Then you need to find the villi, which are attached to the surface of the embryo sac. After being rinsed in water, they appear white and fluffy. If you see this cluster of villi, it can further confirm that it is an embryo, indicating that the embryo has been expelled and the medical abortion is complete.

If only blood clots or some flat tissues are discharged, and no embryo or villi are found after identification using the above method, and abdominal pain and bleeding still exist, then the medical abortion may be incomplete.

The main symptoms of unsuccessful medical abortion are irregular vaginal bleeding and long-term bleeding. Generally, vaginal bleeding lasts for 1-2 weeks after abortion. If it exceeds 3 weeks, it may be an incomplete abortion. Abdominal discomfort or pain are symptoms of failed medical abortion. In addition, if medical abortion is unsuccessful, a uterine curettage surgery will be required.

In fact, medical abortion is not as many female friends think, such as it will be effective after taking it. It also varies from person to person, and its success or failure is determined by time and conditions. Therefore, medical abortion can be successful or unsuccessful, so female friends must be cautious when choosing medical abortion.

The dangers of medical abortion

Medical abortion is not a panacea. Due to the lack of technology or improper methods of medical abortion itself, it may cause serious harm to the health of pregnant women.

1. Causes Inflammation

After medical abortion, the gestational sac will usually be expelled on the same day, but there may be incomplete expulsion of the pregnancy tissue, making it difficult for the uterine membrane to recover and causing persistent vaginal bleeding, which may last for 2 to 3 weeks, and in severe cases, may last for 1 to 2 months. Such long-term continuous blood loss is likely to lead to anemia and may also cause endometritis.

2. Low success rate

In recent years, many women have needed to go to the hospital for uterine curettage surgery because of incomplete medical abortion, which has caused gynecological inflammation. In more serious cases, the tragedy of infertility may even occur. The reason for this is that in medical abortion, the main drug used is mifepristone. However, this drug has only been around for a dozen years, so trials for its clinical use are not sufficient and detailed enough. Currently, the success rate of medical abortion is only 75%.

3. Cause infertility

The hazards caused by incomplete medical abortion also include: fallopian tube blockage, uterine and ovarian damage, etc., which can lead to infertility and cause irreparable harm to pregnant women.

4. Repeated medical abortion is harmful

(1) The first thing you need to understand is that medical abortion achieves the purpose of abortion by hindering the normal function of endocrine, so medical abortion is more or less harmful to the body;

(2) Medical abortion can also cause certain damage to the ovaries, and generally speaking, the recovery time of this damage is also relatively long.

(3) Medical abortion may cause continuous bleeding, which may cause anemia and low immunity in pregnant women, and damage their health.

(4) Medical abortion may also cause vaginal infection, and the harm to the body should not be underestimated.

Another point that needs to be emphasized is that many women may have misunderstandings about medical abortion, thinking that medical abortion is as normal as menstruation and will not cause harm to the body. Therefore, not enough attention is paid to contraceptive measures, and medical abortion is performed after pregnancy. Some people may do it 2 or 3 times a year, which causes great harm to their bodies.
