Patient's question:
I am 26 years old. I didn't use protection before having sex, which led to pregnancy and a miscarriage. Now I have stomach pain and my recovery isn't going well. Yesterday I had sex again and am afraid of getting pregnant again. What could be the reason for having a decreased menstrual flow after an abortion?Doctor's answer:
Generally, after a miscarriage, the ovaries can fully recover their menopausal function within 22 days, and menstruation usually returns approximately one month later. However, the timing of menstruation may vary from person to person, sometimes appearing earlier or later. If a follow-up examination shows everything is normal, menstruation typically returns to normal within 2-3 months. During the treatment period, patients should follow a balanced diet, maintain a regular routine, actively participate in physical exercise, and regulate their physical and mental health. It is also important to maintain personal hygiene to avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
