Help 2 week post Medical Abortion complications
I’m a little over 2 weeks post medication abortion and I’m honestly freaking myself out. The first few days were very heavy with clots/cramping like expected, then over the next week it got WAY lighter and turned into mostly dark brown/black old blood and spotting. It seriously seemed almost done.
I started lightly working out again and had sex last weekend and again this weekend because I thought I was basically healed. Since then the bleeding got wetter/redder again and now I’m passing long mucus/stringy tissue-looking pieces mostly when I sit on the toilet or shower. I’m using a few pads through the day now (not soaking one every hour or anything), cramps are there but not unbearable, and I don’t have fever/chills/fainting. The smell actually seems better than when it was the old black blood phase.
I can’t tell if this sounds like normal healing that got irritated again from sex/activity or if it sounds more like retained tissue. Has anyone else had their bleeding almost stop and then flare back up like this?
I can’t go get a check up due to sharing insurance with my family, they can’t know.
