Half a month after the drug abortion, blood came out again

Medical abortion is also known as drug abortion. It is suitable for pregnant women within 49 days of pregnancy. The cycle of medical abortion is generally about three days. During the process of medical abortion, women's vagina will also have appropriate bleeding, which generally will not exceed half a month. If bleeding occurs again after more than ten days of medical abortion, then you should be alert to the possibility that it is caused by residues in the uterus and other reasons.

Why is there bleeding again after more than ten days of medical abortion?

Bleeding again more than ten days after medical abortion may be caused by residual uterine cavity or poor uterine contraction. First, you need to have a follow-up ultrasound and blood test. If the test results show residues but no infection, you need to undergo curettage. After curettage, you can inject oxytocin 10 units intramuscularly twice a day for three consecutive days. The patient was treated with cephalosporin antibiotics and metronidazole for one week. If there is remnant and accompanied by infection, anti-infection treatment is required first, followed by curettage. If it is caused by poor uterine contractions, it can be treated with intramuscular injection of oxytocin and infusion of antibiotics.

What are the dangers of drug abortion?

1. Cause infection: Medical abortion takes longer than surgical abortion. Sometimes the pregnancy tissue is not completely discharged, the uterine membrane is poorly restored, and vaginal bleeding lasts longer, which can last for 2-3 weeks or even 1-2 months. Long-term and chronic excessive blood loss can cause anemia and reduce the body's immunity. At this time, the bacteria usually travel back through the vagina and cause inflammation of the endometrium.

2. Impact on pregnancy: It can cause repeated damage to the uterine wall. Because the uterine wall is damaged, women are prone to placenta previa in the future, which can cause prenatal bleeding. Women who have had multiple miscarriages may also have habitual miscarriages.

3. Affect the ovaries: inhibit the function of the ovaries, affect the development of eggs and even the ovulation period. What are the dangers of medical abortion? Some women may experience menstrual disorders after medical abortion, which is mainly manifested as a decrease or increase in menstrual cycles. The harm of medical abortion to the human body includes an increase in menstrual flow.

4. Incomplete abortion: Not all women are suitable for medical abortion. If the abortion is incomplete, it will immediately affect the uterine contraction and the repair of the uterine wall wound, and significantly increase the amount of vaginal bleeding, which is 2 to 3 times higher than the normal menstrual volume. In severe cases, internal bleeding may occur, causing anemia and shock. At this time, intravenous injection and emergency surgical treatment such as curettage and blood circulation are required.
