Hi there! After an abortion, your doctor will usually give you antibiotics to prevent infection. If before curettage, prophylactic antibiotics are given and sterility is ensured during the procedure, then there is no need to use antibiotics after curettage. Usually re-examination after 7-14 days to ensure health.

Bleeding in the early stages of pregnancy is okay?

My period is about 15 days late. I tested with a test stick and it showed two faint lines. But then I had a lot of brown bleeding. I went for a transvaginal ultrasound, the doctor did not see the gestational sac and asked me to do a beta HCG blood test. My result was 121. The doctor scheduled me to do another beta HCG test in 2 days. But today I have a lot of red blood like menstrual blood. So doctor, can you tell me if I am pregnant?
