How long does it take for the uterus to recover after a miscarriage?

Patient's question:

How long does it take for the uterus to fully recover after a miscarriage? I have been pregnant for more than half a month, has my uterus fully recovered?

Doctor's answer:

I'm very happy to help you with your question. After a miscarriage, uterine repair requires a certain amount of time. Typically, it takes about a month after a natural or induced abortion for menstruation to return completely. This means that by the halfway point, most women's ovaries will have fully recovered from menopause. However, the healing of the endometrium should also be roughly around this time. Therefore, it's important not to have sexual intercourse. If you do, make sure to take effective contraceptive measures, as accidental pregnancy is very likely. Every person's constitution is different, so the complete recovery of the uterus is not entirely consistent. It's best to wait until menstruation returns completely before resuming sexual activity.
