There is still blood clot on the fourth day after the abortion

Generally speaking, women who choose medical abortion will usually expel the gestational sac on the third day. After the gestational sac is expelled, there will be bleeding and abdominal pain. However, these are normal phenomena. If the bleeding is not too much, you don’t have to worry too much. However, once the body has heavy bleeding or other discomfort symptoms, you must pay attention to it and seek medical attention in time.

Is it normal to have blood clots on the fourth day after medical abortion?

It is normal to have blood clots discharged on the fourth day after medical abortion. This is mainly because the residual substances in the uterus have not been completely discharged. If the amount of bleeding is not large and there are no obvious discomfort symptoms, you do not need treatment for the time being. Just pay special attention to the bleeding. If the bleeding time is long or the amount of bleeding is too large, you should go to the hospital for examination in time, and treat it in time if any abnormality is found.

If there are still blood clots discharged on the fourth day after medical abortion, it is very likely that there is congestion or residue. If the amount of bleeding is not large and there is no obvious abdominal pain or other abnormal conditions, you don’t need to worry too much for the time being. You can observe carefully for a few days. If the symptoms are obviously improved, it means that the abortion effect is better. If the symptoms are getting more and more serious, the amount of bleeding is relatively large, the duration is relatively long, and accompanied by severe abdominal pain, you should go to the hospital for B-ultrasound examination in time. The purpose of B-ultrasound examination is to check the situation in the uterus clearly. If the residual area is found to be relatively large, timely uterine cleaning treatment should be performed. If the area is relatively small, you can take Xinshenghua Granules, Motherwort Granules, etc. for treatment.

When blood clots are discharged after medical abortion, you should pay attention to keeping the local area warm. It is important to avoid catching cold, otherwise the blood clots will increase and the abdominal pain symptoms will worsen. During this period, you should use a warm pack to apply heat to the abdomen. Proper massage of the abdomen can also promote the discharge of residues. You must pay attention to private hygiene at ordinary times, especially during bleeding, sanitary products should be replaced in time. If they are not replaced in time and used for a long time, it will easily breed bacteria and induce gynecological inflammation, which is not conducive to the body's recovery after abortion.

As long as you do some care after the medical abortion to prevent adverse effects caused by intrauterine infection and incomplete medical abortion, there is no need to worry too much. You should pay attention to rest and avoid excessive work, especially strenuous exercise and heavy physical labor. Sexual intercourse should be prohibited for a short period of time after the medical abortion to prevent premature sexual intercourse from affecting the recovery of the uterus. You should be optimistic and cheerful during this period.
