Patient's question:
I got pregnant unintentionally and had to go to the hospital for an abortion. But after the procedure, my menstrual cycle has been abnormal ever since. I had the abortion at the end of September, and it's still irregular now. Is this a normal occurrence? Or is it due to the endocrine disorder caused by the abortion?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on the situation you described, the most common complications after an induced abortion are irregular menstruation after the procedure. If menstruation becomes irregular after an induced abortion, it may lead to menstrual disorders, or even cause endometrial adhesions, resulting in abnormal menstruation. Therefore, if menstrual irregularities occur again after an induced abortion, it is necessary to go to the hospital for an ultrasound and a six-hormone test to diagnose the specific cause of the menstrual irregularities. Identify the cause and treat accordingly.
