Bleeding suddenly increased after nine days of medical abortion

Although medical abortion is not a surgery, it can cause physical discomfort to women. If a woman is physically weak, she is more likely to develop various health problems. Especially when resistance and immunity are low, viruses and bacteria will take advantage of the opportunity to invade. After medical abortion, women's bodies change. Some women have discharge, while others bleed. However, it is recommended that women go to the hospital for check-up at any time to avoid infection. Why does the bleeding suddenly increase nine days after taking medication for abortion?

What are the symptoms of incomplete medical abortion?

Normal menstrual bleeding, in addition to blood, also contains some shed endometrium. If the shed endometrium is in relatively small fragments and mixed with the blood, it will not be very obvious. However, if the shed endometrium is larger, you will see things like "blood clots" or "lumps of meat", which is a normal phenomenon.

Incomplete medical abortion often causes symptoms such as lower back and abdominal pain, prolonged bleeding time, and heavy bleeding. If there is too much residual tissue, problems such as heavy bleeding and infection may occur. If an incomplete miscarriage is suspected after a miscarriage, a careful examination of the uterus, especially the two corners of the uterus, can generally determine whether the miscarriage is incomplete.

If your bleeding stops about 10 minutes after the miscarriage, the subsequent increased menstrual bleeding and prolonged menstruation will have little to do with incomplete miscarriage. The amount of bleeding increases slightly, and the bleeding usually stops in about 7 days, which is normal. However, if the amount of bleeding is heavy and the bleeding lasts for more than 10 days, you should go to the hospital for examination in time.

How to prevent and treat incomplete medical abortion?

1. If the amount of bleeding is not large, you can take a certain amount of abortion drugs as an additional measure.

2. Use oxytocin to expel the embryonic sac under the guidance of a doctor.

3. Take oral drugs such as Gongxuening (not suitable for gastrointestinal diseases) and Yimucao (not suitable for diabetes) under the guidance of a doctor. These drugs have anti-inflammatory, analgesic and hemostatic effects, can help the uterus contract, and are beneficial for the expulsion of undischarged decidua and gestational sac tissue.

4. If an infection or inflammation occurs during medical abortion, anti-inflammatory treatment should be carried out in a timely manner.

5. Once it is confirmed that the medical abortion may be incomplete, go to the hospital for relevant examinations in time to confirm whether other treatment methods such as curettage should be used.

Warm reminder: There are many precautions for medical abortion. Various inappropriate medications and unreasonable treatments may lead to serious consequences. The abortion process should be carried out under the guidance of a doctor to ensure its safety and effectiveness.
