Question 1

after abortion, do you have a little bit of retained products inside the uterus?

Accepted Answer

Post termination: A small about of tissue and blood is expected after a termination. If the bleeding, cramping or amount of "tissue" passing vaginally increases you should get help and perhaps a pelvic ultrasound. Retained tissue may get infected and cause irregular uterine bleeding.

Question 2

i had a d&c procedure yesterday for retained products followed up with an iud insertion after my abortion a month ago andi was wondering how soon can i (externally only) use a vibrator? will that be too much on my cervix/uterus?

Accepted Answer

External: no harm, will not cause problems. No penetration, as the relatively open cervix, may allow infection.

Retained products of: Retained products of conception can be a very serious condition. The tissue retained is frequently necrotic ( dead ) this can lead to a very serious infection. Time to contact you gynecologist.

Question 5

Accepted Answer

Needs evaluation : It is not very likely to have retained tissue 8 months after a termination. I would recommend seeing an obgyn to determine what exactly is going on

Question 6

at 5th week medical abortion done.after one week retained products in upper uterine cavity 17*17mm.is d&c necessary?or to wait until next mensuration

Accepted Answer

"House"cleaning time: Whenever a medical abortion is incomplete as is your case, there is a risk that the retained products of conception will get infected. Most often, a D &amp; C (Dilation &amp; Curettage( not "dusting &amp; cleaning" ), is done to remove the material to prevent infection which can be serious. Ask you Abortion MD what choice is needed.

Question 7

why is heat in my uterus after an abortion ?

Accepted Answer

Possible infection: Please see a doctor for evaluation.  The symptoms you describe are vague but needs to be checked.  All the best

Question 8

which abortion procedure does the least amount of damage to the uterus?

Accepted Answer

Abortion techniques: Medical abortions done early will prevent essential hormones from sustaining the pregnancy, which allows natural rejection of the "products of conception".  The later the attempt to interrupt pregnancy, the more potential for damage to the uterus, and to the patient.  Terminations after the 12th week of pregnancy have more medical risks.

Question 9

i want to check my uterus as i had an abortion in 2017 but i want to have a child ?

Accepted Answer

Abortion/Uterus: There is no reason to have your uterus checked. The abortion removed some lining of the uterus which comes back. A single abortion has no bearing on your ability to get pregnant.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

No: However, a scar may sometimes be seen in the lower uterus on ultrasound after c-section.
