Brown discharge after miscarriage

Many women usually do not take good contraceptive measures, or after contraception fails, they often get pregnant unexpectedly. For women who do not consider having children for the time being, they usually terminate the pregnancy through artificial abortion. Everyone knows that women will have a small amount of vaginal bleeding after abortion, but the amount of bleeding is usually not large, and it will usually stop in a week at most. But why do some people always have brown discharge after abortion?

What is the reason for brown discharge after miscarriage?

There is always brown discharge in the private parts. Is it because it is not drained completely? If the abortion is done in a regular hospital, the problem of not draining completely will generally not occur. It is normal to have brown discharge after an abortion. The abortion operation causes trauma to the surface of the uterus. The wound heals slowly and the membrane that falls off the wound is brown. This process usually takes about 3 days. If it continues to occur, you need to consider whether it is an incomplete abortion or a postoperative infection.

Generally speaking, if a woman has an abortion in a more formal local hospital, no adverse situations will occur. If brown liquid flows out after an abortion, it may be caused by the shedding of reproductive tract mucosa, but the possibility of infection after the operation cannot be ruled out. The doctor recommended going to a regular hospital for further examination and symptomatic treatment after the cause was determined.

Therefore, women need to pay attention to the following issues after an abortion to allow their bodies to recover as quickly as possible and prevent infection and adverse consequences.

Rest in bed properly within 2 weeks after surgery and avoid heavy physical labor;

Pay attention to personal hygiene, especially the cleanliness of the genitals, and wash the vulva with warm water 1-2 times a day;

Avoid bathing in a tub for half a month, change underwear frequently, and prohibit sexual intercourse for one month;

Generally, vaginal bleeding will gradually stop within 3-5 days and will not exceed 10-15 days at most. If the amount of vaginal bleeding after surgery exceeds the amount of menstruation and lasts for too long, you should seek medical attention in time.

After the abortion, you should keep warm, avoid contact with cold water, avoid being caught in the wind, etc. Do not drink cold drinks or eat raw or cold food.

Strengthen nutrition and eat more high-protein foods. After abortion, protein should be given 1.5 grams to 2 grams per kilogram of body weight, and the daily amount is about 100 grams to 150 grams. Therefore, you can eat more chicken, lean pork, eggs, milk, beans, and bean products.

Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables to prevent constipation.

In short, if certain abnormalities occur after an abortion, you should consult a doctor in time and not ignore it.
