Patient's question:
I accidentally got pregnant after having sex with my boyfriend and had a miscarriage at the hospital. It has been 31 days since my miscarriage, but my period still hasn't arrived. What could be happening in my situation? Is it serious?Doctor's answer:
After a general miscarriage, the endometrium needs time to recover, and the next menstrual period may be delayed by an additional period. It is generally not delayed by less than two weeks. If the delay is less than two weeks and there has been sexual activity, it is necessary to first rule out the possibility of pregnancy. If pregnancy is ruled out, a thorough ultrasound examination should be conducted to understand the recovery of the endometrium, such as whether there is adhesions in the uterine cavity or gynecological inflammation, and symptomatic treatment can be administered after a clear diagnosis.
