How many days is normal for bleeding after curettage?

In daily life, due to lack of carefulness, it is easy to cause unexpected pregnancy, so some people choose to have some abortion operations, but these operations will have more serious effects on women's bodies, especially curettage. How many days of bleeding is normal?

Bleeding usually lasts 3 to 15 days after curettage. Curettage and dilation refers to a surgery to scrape and collect endometrial tissue in the uterus. It is a common surgery in obstetrics and gynecology and is also one of the methods of artificial abortion. Normally, once the patient feels well enough (usually the same day), they can resume normal activities. Due to trauma to the endometrium after curettage, there will be vaginal bleeding within two weeks after the operation. Generally, the amount of blood is less than or similar to the menstrual amount, which is normal.

Because curettage is divided into diagnostic curettage and therapeutic curettage, the degree of impact on the mother is different, and the duration of postoperative bleeding is also different. But what is certain is that if the bleeding has not stopped for more than two weeks or the amount of blood exceeds the menstrual volume, please go to the hospital immediately. Therefore, bleeding usually lasts for 3 to 14 days after curettage.

Bleeding after diagnostic curettage usually lasts about 3-5 days, and the longest bleeding time does not exceed 15 days. Diagnostic curettage is abbreviated as C&C, which is divided into general C&C and segmented C&C. General diagnostic curettage is suitable for endocrine abnormalities, which require understanding of endometrial changes and responses to sex hormones, the presence or absence of ovulation, the presence or absence of tuberculosis, etc. Segmented diagnostic curettage refers to the operation of first scraping the cervical canal and then the uterine cavity. The scrapings are sent for pathological examination separately. It is suitable for diagnosing cervical cancer, endometrial cancer and other uterine malignancies, and can understand the range of the cancer. Diagnostic curettage causes much less harm to the human body than therapeutic curettage. Therefore, bleeding after diagnostic curettage generally lasts for about 3-5 days, and the longest bleeding time does not exceed 15 days.
