What should I do if bleeding suddenly appears a few days after an abortion?

Abortion is an artificial miscarriage. The sudden appearance of blood a few days after an artificial miscarriage may be a normal phenomenon. It may also be due to poor uterine involution, uterine remnants, etc., and treatment is required according to different causes.

1. Normal phenomenon

After artificial abortion, the levels of human chorionic gonadotropin and estrogen and progesterone decrease accordingly, which can lead to the peeling of uterine decidua tissue and cause post-abortion bleeding. This is a normal phenomenon and generally does not require special treatment. Pay attention to local hygiene.

2. Poor uterine involution

If you have little rest time or great mental stress after abortion, it may affect the repair of the uterus. When the uterus is not restored properly, it may cause repeated bleeding. Drugs such as Yi Mu Cao Granules, Wu Jia Sheng Hua Capsules, and An Gong Zhi Xue Wan can be used for treatment under the guidance of a doctor.

3. Uterine cavity residue

If there are residual fetal membranes in the uterine cavity after artificial abortion, it will cause bleeding after stimulating uterine contractions, which can manifest as the above phenomenon. It can be treated by curettage.

In addition to the relatively common reasons mentioned above, there are other reasons, such as endometrial recovery, intrauterine infection, uterine perforation, etc. If you have any discomfort, you should seek medical attention and receive timely treatment to avoid delaying the condition.
