What Causes Intermittent Abdominal Pain And Vaginal Bleeding After An Abortion?

I am 26years old. Did abortion around 20days back, had bleeding with clots for 5 to 6 days. Then after 2 to 3days gap it started again , bleeds for 2 to 3days. And after another gap of 3 to 4days, it started again with a pain on the left side of my abdomen. This time the bleeding is with some clots. Its been 3 to 4days the pain is not going away and still there is little traces of blood. Please advice what to do? Have some test or wait for a while?

Hi, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. Bleeding and pain in abdomen after an abortion can be due to retained products of conception in the uterinecavity.
I would suggest you to get a repeat ultrasound and consult your OBGYN specialist for further management, as repeat surgical evacuation may be needed if there are significant retained products of conception in the uterine cavity.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
