What is the amount of menstrual flow after abortion with blood clots?

Patient's question:

At less than three months pregnant, I fell and lost the baby. At that time, I also had a D&C procedure. When my period came in the second month after the miscarriage, I noticed many blood clots. Is it normal to have a heavy period with blood clots after a miscarriage?

Doctor's answer:

I'm glad to help you with your question. After another natural miscarriage, you have undergone a D&C procedure, and your menstruation has returned completely one month later. The amount of blood clots has increased compared to before. First, don't be anxious. Because after the D&C procedure, the endometrium needs time to repair. Once the newly repaired endometrium resumes menstruation, there may be some differences compared to before. For example, during the period, if the area is too large or the bleeding volume is excessive, this is also normal. Pay close attention to observe the amount of bleeding and the duration. If the bleeding is particularly heavy, medication treatment may be needed. Otherwise, you can just monitor the situation closely.
