hello

Thank you for writing to HCM

since you mentioned of a brown discharge on and off please get an Ultrasound of the pelvis done and see how what the findings are.

This will help to arrive at some diagnosis and facilitate further management

hope to have answered your query

Hi,
After an abortion, hormonal disturbances do happen for a few days before the body restores its normal hormonal balance. If the spotting persists beyond that as is seen in your case, there are certain things that would be needed to be done; confirmation of the completion of the abortion through a physical exam as well as a trans-vaginal sonogram and complete hormonal profile. If the abortion is complete, hormonal supplementation along with nutritional supplements for a few cycles usually correct the problem. Hope this helps.

Hi,

Thanks for your query. I read your query and I understand your concerns.
Following is my reply:

1) The discharge must be remaining products of conception or old clotted blood.

2) If you are on antibiotic, wait for few days by which time, the discharge might reduce.

3) Generally first period after abortion is little bit like this. Hence please wait. If worried much get a scan done.

Let me know if you have anymore doubts.
