One month after incomplete abortion

After an unexpected pregnancy, if you do not want to give birth to the child, you need to choose to abort the child. Surgical abortion is expensive and carries a high risk of uterine perforation. For the sake of cheapness and convenience, many women choose medical abortion. However, if they take the medicine privately without the guidance of a doctor, it is easy to cause incomplete abortion. So what will be the consequences of incomplete abortion after a period of time? Let’s find out.

Since medical abortion is cheap and convenient, it has become the choice of many women with unexpected pregnancy. But why do doctors recommend medical abortion and uterine cleaning? The main reason is that medical abortion is prone to incomplete abortion. What are the causes of incomplete abortion, and how to prevent and deal with incomplete medical abortion? Let's learn about it together with the editor.

Why is medical abortion recommended?

Generally, the success rate of medical abortion is very low, and incomplete abortion is easy to occur. If incomplete abortion occurs, uterine curettage must be performed, because incomplete abortion will leave residual embryonic tissue in the uterus, which may continue to grow. Therefore, uterine curettage must be performed to remove the residual tissue. If the medical abortion is incomplete and the uterus is not cleaned, it can easily lead to uterine infection and various complications. If the endometrium is damaged, it may also destroy the site of fetal implantation, leading to infertility. Heavy bleeding may also occur. Heavy bleeding may cause hemorrhagic shock or anemia, seriously endangering a person's life safety, so everyone should pay attention to it.

Causes of incomplete abortion

1. The use of drugs varies from person to person. If you do not follow the doctor's instructions, you should not take abortion drugs blindly.

2. No pre-medical abortion examination was conducted, including confirmation of pregnancy period, ectopic pregnancy examination, embryonic sac size examination, various inflammation examinations, heart function and liver function examinations. Examination before medical abortion is an effective way to ensure the success of medical abortion. The above items may lead to incomplete abortion.

3. Poor coagulation function. Uterine bleeding coagulates too slowly, resulting in large amounts of bleeding, which may lead to heavy bleeding.

4. Inflammatory infection during medical abortion may lead to incomplete decidua exfoliation and incomplete abortion.

How to prevent and treat incomplete medical abortion

1. If the amount of bleeding is not large, you can take a certain amount of abortion drugs as an additional measure.

2. Use oxytocin to expel the embryonic sac under the guidance of a doctor.

3. Take oral drugs such as Gongxuening (not suitable for gastrointestinal diseases) and Motherwort (not suitable for diabetes) under the guidance of a doctor. These drugs have anti-inflammatory, analgesic and hemostatic effects, can help the uterus contract, and are beneficial for the expulsion of undischarged decidua and gestational sac tissue.
