How long after a painless abortion will menstruation return?

Patient's question:

Last month, I noticed that I hadn't had my period for a long time, so I went to the gynecology department for a check-up. The result was pregnancy. After thinking it over, I decided to have an abortion. However, I had to wait for another month, so I just finished it a few days ago. Now I'm still fully recovering. How long after a painless abortion will my period come back?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, after an abortion, menstruation will occur within 42 days. If it hasn't arrived within this timeframe, it's important to seek medical attention, as abortion can easily lead to uterine adhesions. If menstruation does not occur, this situation can be quite serious. In mild cases, anti-inflammatory medication may be sufficient, but in severe cases, further surgery may be necessary. This can affect menstruation and future fertility.
Maintain physical and mental health, keep personal hygiene, and avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
