What causes fever and pelvic pain post-abortion?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

I am sorry that you are experiencing these symptoms. Pelvic pain, fever, and abdominal cramps after a one-month abortion can be signs of post-abortion complications, such as:

1. Infection (post-abortion endometritis or pelvic inflammatory disease). This is a common cause of fever and pelvic pain and may occur if bacteria enter the uterus during or after the procedure.

2. Retained products of conception (RPOC): If some tissue remains in the uterus, it can lead to pain, cramping, and sometimes infection.

3. Uterine cramping: The uterus naturally contracts to return to its normal size after an abortion, which can cause discomfort.

4. Bowel or urinary irritation: These systems can also be temporarily affected by inflammation in the pelvic area.

Given that you have a fever and ongoing pain, it is important to seek medical attention immediately. A physical examination, pelvic ultrasound, and possibly blood tests may be necessary to rule out infection or retained tissue. Early treatment, often with antibiotics or a follow-up procedure if needed, can prevent further complications.

Please do not delay care, and feel free to reach out if you would like to discuss this further in a private consultation.

I hope this will help you.

Thank you.
