What are the symptoms of an incomplete abortion?

During an abortion, if the fluid is not discharged completely, it will cause great harm to women's health, especially during medical abortion. The gestational sac may not discharge, which may cause women to suffer a second time and go to the hospital for an abortion. In addition, it often causes women to feel nauseous and dislike greasy food. In more serious cases, it may lead to infection and itching symptoms.

What are the symptoms of an incomplete abortion?

1. Nausea and aversion to greasy food. Other typical symptoms of incomplete abortion are nausea, aversion to greasy food, lower abdominal pain, and persistent vaginal bleeding.

2. The bleeding time is long and the abortion is not done cleanly. The symptoms are usually lower abdominal pain and continuous vaginal bleeding. The bleeding time after medical abortion is 1-3 weeks, and the amount of bleeding gradually decreases. If the bleeding decreases and then increases again, or does not decrease at all, or gradually increases, these are symptoms that the abortion was not complete.

3. Infection occurs and there is an itchy feeling. If the B-ultrasound shows no residue in the uterus, then intrauterine infection should be considered, because the blood after abortion is a good breeding ground for bacteria. If the symptoms of an incomplete abortion are very serious, then during a gynecological examination, the uterus will be tender and there will be symptoms such as fever.

Precautions

Measure 1: Keep the vulva clean: Because the female reproductive organs are still recovering after the abortion and cannot be damaged, sexual intercourse is strictly prohibited within one month after the operation.

Measure 2: Pay attention to rest: Women should pay attention to rest after abortion, avoid excessive fatigue, and do not engage in heavy physical labor or work in cold water within half a month after the abortion, so as not to reduce resistance and induce other diseases. This can avoid the occurrence of post-abortion syndrome and reduce the incidence of gynecological inflammation. This is the most difficult point to adhere to. Those who have abortions should pay enough attention to it and be responsible for their own health.

Measure three, pay attention to personal hygiene: After the abortion surgery, you must maintain good hygiene to avoid adverse reactions. At the same time, you must avoid sexual intercourse and change sanitary pads frequently during bleeding. You cannot take a sitz bath within half a month, you can only take a shower. Because the bacteria in dirty water can easily enter the vagina during bathing.

Measure 4: Pay attention to bleeding: One week after the abortion, there will be red or light red secretions in the vagina, the amount will decrease gradually, and there will be no obvious odor. If this phenomenon lasts for more than half a month and the amount of bleeding continues to increase, especially if the secretions have a foul odor and are accompanied by symptoms such as fever and abdominal pain, you should go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time to avoid the occurrence of gynecological inflammation.
