How long does it take to be considered normal after a medication abortion?

Patient's question:

I have been living with my boyfriend for a long time, but we haven't prepared to get married yet. Accidentally, I got pregnant with our baby. Now I have had a medication abortion. Hello, how long does it take for a medication abortion to be considered normal?

Doctor's answer:

It takes about a month after medication abortion to return to normal. During this month, spicy food must be avoided, and sexual relations should not be resumed, otherwise it may lead to gynecological inflammation or even endometriosis, which could affect future fertility. About two weeks after the abortion, it is recommended to have an ultrasound check to assess how clean it is. If menstrual irregularities reappear, medication may be needed to regulate the period.
