Patient's question:
I am now a mother of two children. Last month, I accidentally got pregnant and had an abortion. It has been over a month since then. The other day, I had my period, but this time the amount of blood was very little, less than half of what it used to be. Hello doctor, after an abortion, the first period is very light, is it okay?Doctor's answer:
The first menstrual period after an abortion is usually light in volume, which is consistent with the clinical manifestations after an abortion. This is because the ovarian function may not have fully recovered after the procedure, making it easier to experience light menstrual flow or delayed menstruation. There is no need to worry. First, wait and see. If the menstrual volume remains light in the future, it is necessary to visit the hospital for a hysteroscopy to understand whether there are issues such as uterine or cervical adhesions.
