What symptoms should we pay attention to after a miscarriage?
If it is a complete miscarriage, the vaginal bleeding will stop within a short period of time and the uterus will quickly regenerate. If it is incomplete miscarriage , the bleeding time is longer, and if the vaginal bleeding lasts for more than a week or more than 10 days, you need to pay attention to the problem of uterine involution or residual pregnancy products.
