Patient's question:
What should I do if I get pregnant unexpectedly? The harm is relatively small. How long does breast engorgement and pain last after an abortion?Doctor's answer:
Six months into the pregnancy, I underwent an abortion procedure and experienced symptoms of breast engorgement and pain. This is a normal physiological phenomenon, as it is caused by a sudden rise in hormone levels after the abortion. During this stage, you need to actively use milk-suppressing medication under the guidance of a doctor, while also avoiding excessive consumption of soups to prevent increased milk production. Generally, this pain symptom can last for at least a week, after which it can gradually decrease.
