What should I do if lochia continues after induced abortion?

Prolonged lochia after induced abortion may be caused by retained tissue in the uterus, uterine injury, inflammatory infection, or poor uterine contraction. Management options include: 1. Targeted treatment: Depending on the specific cause, treatments such as dilation and curettage (D&C), uterine evacuation, uterotonic agents, or antibiotics may be used. 2. Physical therapy: Methods such as heat application, massage, or acupuncture can help enhance uterine contraction and promote the discharge of lochia. 3. Medication: If infection occurs during the puerperium, drugs such as oxytocin or misoprostol tablets may be used to promote uterine contraction and lochia expulsion. If lochia persists for an extended period, prompt medical evaluation is recommended to identify the underlying cause and initiate appropriate treatment.
