Title: A clinical observation of the effects of taking oral contraceptives timely after abortion on reducing the rate of postoperative uterus cleaning
Abstract: Objective To observe whether taking oral contraceptives timely after abortion helps reduce the rate of repeated uterus cleaning. Methods Patients were randomly assigned to observation group(orally taking Yasmin after abortion) and control group, with 100 patients in each group. They were received type-B ultrasound seven days after abortion. The patients with normal test results were visited once a month and the patients with abnormal test results were visited once a week, and once a month after the results became normal. Results Eighty-five patients in observation group had normal test results and 15 had abnormal results. Durations of vaginal bleeding and resuming to normal menstruation were(4±0.6),(28±3.4),(8.3±1.9), and(31±3.5) days respectively. No patients were received dilation and curettage again. 82 patients in control group had normal test results and 18 had abnormal results. The durations of vaginal bleeding and resuming to normal menstruation were(7±1.5),(35±2.3),(12.3±2.1), and(35±4.5) days respectively. Six patients were received dilation and curettage again. The differences of the durations of vaginal bleeding, resuming to normal menstruation and the rate of repeated uterus cleaning between the two groups were statistically significant(P0.05). Conclusion Taking oral contraceptives after abortion helps shorten the durations of vaginal bleeding and resuming to normal menstruation, and reduce the rate of repeated uterus cleaning.
