Question
Is it normal to have a small amount of vaginal discharge after an abortion? The follow-up examination results showed that everything else was fine, but there was mention of fluid accumulation in the uterus.
Answer
According to the description, it is possible to have a small amount of vaginal bleeding after an abortion. However, if the bleeding exceeds 10 days, it is recommended to undergo further examination. The main symptoms at present are abnormal leukorrhea, which appears yellowish, accompanied by lower abdominal pain, which may be related to post-operative infection. It is suggested to undergo a vaginal discharge examination to determine the cause. If the infection is severe, hysteroscopy and pathological examination can be performed after infection control. It is recommended to take oral antibiotics to prevent infection and to take medication to promote uterine contraction to reduce bleeding. It is advisable to avoid taking baths and sexual activity within one month after the operation, and to pay attention to external genital hygiene. For abnormal bleeding, medical consultation and follow-up should be sought promptly.
