For women who are pregnant, if the month is not yet very old, early measures should be taken to have an abortion. Medical abortion is a relatively simple and convenient way. Women take medication to expel the gestational sac from their body, which is considered a successful surgery. However, medical abortion may inevitably bring some discomfort to women. So, why does the lower abdomen still hurt after the gestational sac is expelled?
It is normal for the lower abdomen to still hurt after the gestational sac is expelled. This is abdominal pain caused by uterine contractions, mainly to quickly remove residual pregnancy tissue. Therefore, women do not need to worry too much. They can take drugs that promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis, and promote uterine contractions under the guidance of a doctor. At the same time, they should pay more attention to rest, strengthen warmth, eat more foods rich in high-quality protein, and accelerate uterine repair.
Women who undergo medical abortion need to take medication for about 4 days. At the beginning of medication, there is no obvious feeling, but later on, the abdominal pain will become more severe. With vaginal bleeding, the gestational sac will be expelled from the body. Within one or two hours after the expulsion of the gestational sac, the abdominal pain will relieve, but there may still be slight abdominal pain in the following days.
When women feel abdominal pain, they can use hot compress to relieve it. Hot compress can accelerate tissue metabolism. Women should soak towels or gauze in hot water as warm as possible for about 15 minutes, and prevent burns during this period.
