Patient's question:
Last month on May 3rd, after having an abortion without anesthesia, my period arrived on June 5th with excessive bleeding. I was changing sanitary pads almost every hour, and I had some abdominal pain. What should I do? Today is the third day of my period, and the flow is still heavy with blood clots.Doctor's answer:
What you need to do now is to pay attention to rest and avoid overexertion, because this is a normal situation. Since you have undergone a painless abortion, it has been exactly one month. Painless abortion can cause damage to the endometrium, so the complete recovery of the endometrium takes about a month. During this time, it is normal to have a heavier menstrual flow with blood clots. Pay close attention to your body and have regular follow-up check-ups.
