Ultrasonographic features of the endometrium following successful medical termination of early pregnancy.

Objective: Ultrasonographic features of the endometrium are often assessed when deciding the necessity of surgical intervention following early medical abortion. Knowledge is therefore needed on the ultrasonographic appearance of the endometrium following successful medical abortion in order to avoid unnecessary surgical interventions. We aimed to assess endometrial thickness and echogenicity at multiple time points following successful early medical abortion.
