Can menstruation be irregular after tubal ligation?

Patient's question:

My sister had two children and then had an induced abortion. Since giving birth to her second child and having the abortion, her menstrual cycle has been irregular—sometimes she doesn't get her period at all, or it takes a long time for it to arrive. She really likes it, but it's said that irregular menstruation can have a significant impact on women. Hello, what should I do about irregular menstruation after an induced abortion? Thank you!

Doctor's answer:

This menstrual irregularity is a relatively common phenomenon among women's gynecological diseases. There is no need for excessive worry. Generally, it is related to the disruption of endocrine hormone levels in the body. It is recommended that your sister visit the hospital for examinations such as an ultrasound and a panel of six sex hormones to identify the cause. After the diagnosis, she should take medication under the guidance of a doctor to treat the symptoms. In most cases, it can be adjusted to a regular pattern. At the same time, it is important for your sister to maintain a positive mood and a regular lifestyle, avoid staying up late, and also minimize the consumption of extremely cold, spicy, or other stimulating foods.
