What is the reason for not having a menstrual period 40 days after medication abortion?

Patient's question:

Last month, I had a medication abortion. Now, my period still hasn't come. What's the reason for not having my period 40 days after the medication abortion?

Doctor's answer:

After completing medication-induced abortion, it is relatively normal if your period hasn't arrived in 40 days. Don't worry too much. It is recommended to have an ultrasound examination to check how well your uterus has fully recovered. After medication-induced abortion, it is also important to rest more and enhance your nutrition.
Friendly reminder: When engaging in sexual activity again without planning to have a baby, always take proper contraceptive measures to avoid harming your body.
