Suggest Treatment For Cramps, Pain And Bleeding After Abortion

Hello, I had a medical abortion Friday just gone, and had the cramping pain and bleeding and passed some stuff which I believe was tissue and clots etc. the. Saturday I was absolutely fine, no pain at all, had normal bleeding. And on Sunday I started to get really bad aches in abdomen and bleeding heavily, and today I ve had the same, the aches was really bad today, painkillers help and I wouldn t say I was soaking more than one pad an hour, it s just very heavy especially when on toilet or standing up. My tummy feels swollen and I m just worried and a little scared this isn t normal, I just wasn t expecting it after having such a good day Saturday although because I felt great Saturday I did not rest at all and had a busy day. Would you be able to advise me please or let me know if this is normal or if I should worry. I don t want to waste hospitals time if I am worrying for nothing. Thank you

Hi,

From your symptoms, I see possibility of incomplete abortion. I would advise to get checked by your gynecologist to know exact status. It can bleed to complete the process on its own but after a medical abortion with proper dosage of medication at given time and without any adhesions of fetus to uterus, complete abortion takes about 2 days after last pill intake or insertion. You show a deviation in process. Hence, it's always better to get checked in time and get proper treatment rather than avoid a doctor's visit and land in severe problem later.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
