Can Baofukang Suppositories be used a few days after an abortion?

“Painless abortion” refers to a type of induced abortion during which the woman experiences no pain. This procedure is performed under general anesthesia and is based on vacuum aspiration abortion.

Baofukang Suppositories are a purely traditional Chinese herbal preparation that can eliminate pathogenic microorganisms responsible for cervical erosion and promote blood circulation and resolution of blood stasis. They also enhance local blood flow and increase the number of peripheral white blood cells at the site of erosion.

So, can Baofukang Suppositories be used just a few days after an abortion? Let’s explore this further.

Can Baofukang Suppositories be used just a few days after an abortion?

Yes, Baofukang Suppositories may be used following an abortion—but it is advisable to wait at least one week. Immediately after an abortion, vaginal immunity is diminished. The suppository must be inserted deeply into the vagina; improper insertion may introduce bacteria into the vaginal canal. As a topical preparation, Baofukang Suppositories contain essential oil of Curcuma zedoaria and borneol, exerting effects of promoting Qi circulation, breaking up blood stasis, stimulating tissue regeneration, and relieving pain. They are indicated for leukorrhea caused by damp-heat and blood stasis, characterized by excessive yellowish vaginal discharge and occasional pruritus vulvae.

For patients with candidal vaginitis, atrophic (senile) vaginitis, or cervical erosion presenting with the above symptoms, external genitalia should first be thoroughly cleansed before inserting the suppository deeply into the vagina—or as directed by a physician—once daily, preferably at bedtime. Prior to initiating treatment, it is recommended to visit a hospital for routine vaginal discharge examination and other relevant tests. After diagnosis, follow your physician’s instructions regarding dosage and duration. Upon completion of the prescribed course, repeat the vaginal discharge test to determine whether further treatment is necessary. Self-medication without professional guidance is strongly discouraged.
