Why do you need to use anal medication after abortion?

Artificial abortion is abortion. After artificial abortion, the anus is filled with medication, usually misoprostol, which can promote uterine contraction and reduce bleeding.

After an artificial abortion, it takes some time for the uterus to recover. The doctor can give vaginal suppositories according to the patient's specific situation. Generally, misoprostol is used, which can promote uterine contraction and reduce bleeding. Taking the medicine through the anus can reduce the side effects on the human body. Some people may experience diarrhea after suppositories, which is usually transient and can gradually return to normal after stopping the medication.

After an artificial abortion, you should pay attention to vaginal bleeding, which usually does not last more than a week. Pay attention to the cleanliness of the vulva, change and wash underwear frequently, get enough sleep, avoid overwork, avoid eating spicy and irritating foods, eat more foods rich in vitamins and high-quality protein to supplement the nutrients needed by the body and help the body recover.

If vaginal bleeding lasts for a long time after artificial abortion, you should be alert to whether it is caused by residual embryonic tissue. It is recommended to return to the outpatient clinic for a follow-up examination in time, confirm the diagnosis with pelvic B-ultrasound examination, and give uterine curettage treatment if necessary.
