Is the residue from medical abortion high echo?

Medical abortion is a method of abortion that more and more women are willing to choose, but it also has problems such as low success rate and incomplete removal of the gestational sac. After medical abortion, many women still have some residual waste in their bodies. If it stays in the body for a long time, it will affect their health. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the medical abortion residues in the body after medical abortion.

The best time to clean the uterus after medical abortion

Under normal circumstances, if the abortion is clean, there is no need for uterine curettage. The patient should go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination to see if there is any residual tissue in the uterus that requires uterine curettage. Once it is confirmed that the abortion is not clean, uterine curettage should be performed in time. Once it is confirmed that the miscarriage was not complete, the earlier the uterine cleaning is done, the less harm it will cause to the body. Generally, a follow-up check is done 7-10 days after the miscarriage.

After taking the medicine, it was confirmed that the pregnancy tissue was discharged, and the B-ultrasound examination did not show the gestational sac, so it can be diagnosed that the abortion was complete. If high-echo tissue is seen in the uterine cavity during B-ultrasound, it is likely to be detached tissue or blood clot. At this point, we can continue to observe, or use misoprostol tablets again to plug the vagina or anus to promote uterine contraction and discharge residual tissue. However, if no pregnancy tissue is seen to be discharged after taking the medicine, there is vaginal bleeding and lower abdominal pain, and a gestational sac is still visible in the uterine cavity during B-ultrasound examination, then it can be determined that the abortion is incomplete and a uterine curettage is needed as soon as possible to remove any residual embryonic tissue.
