I'm really worried about my wife's recovery after her surgical abortion. She's been experiencing bleeding, filling about one pad a day. Do you know how long this bleeding might last? Is this normal?

It's normal for some bleeding to occur after a surgical abortion, typically lasting 1-2 weeks. The amount should gradually decrease, and bleeding of one pad per day is generally considered within the expected range. However, if the bleeding becomes heavy or persists longer than 2 weeks, it's important to consult with a doctor to rule out any complications.

I'm feeling a bit concerned and confused. Our gynecologist recommended this 'suggest 200' medication after a cervical scan showed my wife has a low-lying placenta at four months pregnant. I've read that taking this isn't usually advised during pregnancy. Could you shed some light on this? Is it safe, and should we be worried about potential effects?
