Patient's question:
I had an abortion on January 1st, and it hasn't been my period yet until today, March 4th.Past treatment history and effectiveness: I took Hulitong for 5 days, but it didn't work.
What kind of help I need: What is the cause? What should I do?
Doctor's answer:
1. A single abortion can cause women to feel mentally tense and fearful. These adverse psychological factors can lead to menstrual disorders, which may result in secondary amenorrhea.2. After an abortion, the endocrine system undergoes changes again, particularly with a sudden rise in the level of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). This makes the ovaries unable to respond normally to gonadotropins from the anterior pituitary, leading to amenorrhea.
3. During an abortion, the endometrium is excessively scraped away, making it unable to fully repair in the short term. As a result, amenorrhea may occur. It is recommended that you visit a hospital for a thorough examination. Additionally, it is best to avoid frequent sexual activity after an abortion to prevent menstrual disorders. At the same time, pay attention to rest and avoid physical labor. Enhance your nutrition to help your body recover quickly.
