Still bleeding ten days after induced abortion

Under normal circumstances, there will be a small amount of bleeding for about a week after induced abortion. Generally, the bleeding does not exceed the normal amount of menstruation and is self-healing. If the bleeding exceeds 400ml, it is considered post-abortion bleeding and you should go to the hospital immediately for emergency blood circulation. So, is it normal to still be bleeding ten days after induced abortion?

The induced abortion operation is the same as normal delivery, and the lochia will return to normal after about twenty days. Under normal circumstances, the partial secretions after the delay will be clear in about ten days. If it is still not clear, it is necessary to consider partial residue or infection, which requires B-ultrasound examination and then treatment. During this period, you cannot have sex and avoid fatigue and cold. Eat motherwort granules and metronidazole in moderation.

Generally speaking, it is better to insert the IUD during one menstrual period after the induced abortion. If it is the tenth day after induced abortion, it is best not to insert an IUD, as it is very easy to cause intrauterine infection. Therefore, in your case, it is recommended that you have your period, and then go to the hospital to insert an IUD 3-7 days after the period is over.

After the abortion, you must wait for the uterus to fully recover and the menstruation to be normal and regular before you can wear the ring. It needs to be removed within the first three days after the menstruation is completely over. Considering your period, the time is a bit too short. At this time, the incomplete repair of the uterus is very likely to cause infection and bleeding. Generally speaking, the ring needs to be put on two to three months after the operation.

Common problems after induction of labor

1. Observe for 2 hours and pay attention to vaginal bleeding and abdominal pain. If there is no reaction, you can go home.

2. You need to rest for 2 weeks after abortion, avoid catching cold and fever, and eat more nutritious foods to help the body recover as soon as possible.

3. For a period of time after induced abortion, the wound on the uterine wall has not healed, the cervical opening relaxes, the original mucus plug in the cervix (which has the function of preventing bacteria from entering the uterine cavity) has been removed, and a new mucus plug has not been formed. At this time, if the vulva hygiene is not paid attention to, vaginal bacteria can easily enter the uterine cavity and cause infection. Therefore, after induced abortion, it is necessary to maintain daily cleanliness of the vulva and wash menstrual pads and toilet paper frequently. Sexual intercourse is strictly prohibited within one month to prevent infection of the male reproductive organs. If you have a fever, abdominal pain, or an unusual odor in your female discharge, it may be an infection and you should seek medical attention immediately.

4. After the embryo is separated during the induced abortion, the wound left on the inner wall of the uterus may bleed. This situation is accompanied by uterine contractions and wound repair. Generally, vaginal bleeding will gradually stop in 3-5 days and will not exceed 10-15 days at most. If the amount of vaginal bleeding exceeds the amount of menstrual blood and lasts too long, you need to seek medical treatment immediately.

5. The uterus and ovaries will resume ovulation in about one month after induced abortion, followed by the onset of menstruation. Therefore, if you want to resume your sexual life after an abortion, you need to use contraceptive methods to prevent pregnancy again. If you plan to use an IUD as a contraceptive measure, you can put it in during the abortion, because the success rate of the IUD is higher, the rate of it falling off is lower, and there are fewer side effects.
