How to expel retained products after abortion

Generally, "ren liu" refers to induced abortion. After an induced abortion, retained materials can be expelled from the body through appropriate physical activity, medication, physical therapy, vacuum aspiration, or curettage. Detailed explanations are as follows:

1. Appropriate Physical Activity

Engaging in appropriate physical activity, such as getting out of bed and walking around, can enhance the contractility of the uterine smooth muscle, thereby promoting the movement of retained materials out of the body and facilitating their natural expulsion.

2. Medication

Under a doctor's guidance, medications such as misoprostol tablets, mifepristone tablets, and motherwort granules can be taken. These medications stimulate uterine contractions, thus aiding in the expulsion of retained materials. Enhanced uterine contractions generate sufficient force to detach retained materials from the endometrium and expel them from the body.

3. Physical Therapy

Physical methods such as heat application or massage can improve local blood circulation in the uterus, enhance uterine contractility, and thus aid in the expulsion of retained materials. Heat application can relieve tension in the uterine smooth muscles, making them more prone to contraction, while massage can directly act on the uterine area, promoting the loosening and expulsion of retained materials.

4. Vacuum Aspiration

Vacuum aspiration is an effective method for removing retained materials. It works on the principle of negative pressure, using a tube to suction retained materials out of the uterine cavity. This method is suitable for cases where the retained materials are small and superficially located, enabling precise removal of retained materials while minimizing damage to the uterus.

5. Curettage

If the retained materials are large or cannot be expelled using the above methods, a curettage may be required. Curettage is a treatment method that involves removing retained materials from the uterine cavity using surgical instruments. It can directly scrape the retained materials from the endometrium and suction them out of the body, thus ensuring uterine cleanliness and recovery.

It is important to maintain hygiene in daily life, keeping the external genitalia clean and dry, and avoiding the use of harsh cleansing products. Extra attention should be paid to personal hygiene after induced abortion to reduce the risk of infection.
