If you have a small amount of blood 8 days after the abortion, you can have a follow-up examination, which will check whether there is still pregnancy residue in the uterine cavity and whether there is any secondary infection.
Vaginal bleeding usually stops in about 7 days after the abortion, and can be reviewed on the 7th day after the operation. If there is still a small amount of vaginal bleeding on the 8th day after the abortion, the patient can also be reviewed, and the ultrasound will be used to check whether there is still any residue in the uterine cavity, and whether it is due to the residual gestational material that causes the small amount of vaginal bleeding on the 8th day after the operation.
A gynecological examination will also be performed at the post-abortion review because if there is a secondary infection, such as pelvic inflammatory disease, after the abortion, then there will also be symptoms of prolonged vaginal bleeding.
If there is still a small amount of vaginal bleeding on the 8th day after the abortion, the patient should follow the doctor’s instructions for a follow-up examination to avoid delaying the condition.
