What Causes Spotty Bleeding And Pieces Of Tissue In Urine?

Hello, I m 26 and had a surgical abortion on December 5th 2013, I was 6 weeks pregnant. I had the contraceptive implant fitted at the same time. An ultrasound later that day showed some retained tissue and on the 7th I was given a half dose of the abortion pill to flush the remainder out. I had heavy bleeding and pain for a few days but it settled. However, 5 months down the line I am still having very spotty bleeding, no pain and very light but probably on average 4 days out of 7 every week. I know the implant can cause irregular bleeding but I also notice on a regular basis, tiny scraps of tissue after I pass urine, there is no blood, just a number of pieces of tissue ranging from 2-15mm long. Can you offer any advice? Thank you.

Hi,

It may be due to bladder debris as a part of urinary tract infection. You can go for a urine routine to look for any associated urinary tract infection. Also get an ultrasound scan done to rule out any retained tissues.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
