Patient's question:
A month ago, I successfully got pregnant while breastfeeding. Last week, I had an abortion. Now I feel extremely painful. When I had it done, I didn't feel any pain, but now I'm feeling very painful. Additionally, there is still blood inside my vagina after the abortion. Is this normal?Doctor's answer:
If there is a recurrence of significant abdominal pain after an induced abortion procedure, this is generally an effect of the induced abortion procedure. This is because the procedure itself involves surgically forcibly scraping the endometrium. During this process, there will inevitably be significant pain, but this pain should not last too long, generally subsiding noticeably within about a week.
