What should I do if I haven't had my period since the miscarriage?

Patient's question:

I haven't had my period since my medication abortion on May 6th, and it's been two months already. I don't know if the miscarriage has caused significant damage to my uterus, which is making me very sad. However, I haven't had time to go to the hospital for a thorough check-up. I want to ask what I should do.

Doctor's answer:

General medication-induced abortion causes relatively minor damage to the endometrium. Most women experience prolonged bleeding after medication abortion. A medication-induced abortion is generally equivalent to one menstrual period, with an interval of over a month, and it should be normal for your period to come. Since you haven't had a period for two months, if you have had normal sexual activity after the abortion, the first possibility to consider is pregnancy. However, it could also be related to menstrual irregularities caused by medication abortion. In your case, it is necessary to visit a local hospital for a thorough examination to confirm whether there is a risk of pregnancy. If it is not due to pregnancy, you will need to take progesterone treatment under the guidance of a doctor to induce menstruation.
