Patient's question:
On October 5th, I had an abortion surgery, and I haven't had my period yet. How long is it considered normal for the period to come? Also, my vaginal discharge is especially heavy now!Doctor's answer:
I'm glad to help you clarify this. Generally, after a miscarriage, menstruation will return about a month later. However, some individuals may experience it delayed by up to 40 or even 60 days, which is also within the normal range. You can wait and see a bit longer. It is recommended to temporarily avoid extremely cold and stimulating foods, maintain a regular sleep schedule, and prevent overexertion. As for abnormal vaginal discharge, you can have it tested for a routine vaginal discharge examination at a local hospital.
