Patient's question:
I thought many reasons temporarily didn't want children, got pregnant, and then had an abortion. Is it normal not to have any bleeding after the abortion for a few days? It's been 7 days for me, and besides blood, I also have lower abdominal pain when walking more. Will it be okay?Doctor's answer:
Generally, bleeding will stop within a few days after an abortion, not exceeding two weeks at most. With less emotional trauma, painless abortion may not result in bleeding, even on that night. Post-abortion bleeding should not be more frequent than normal menstruation. If bleeding persists for more than a week, it may be due to inadequate rest. Therefore, the uterus may not recover fully. This condition is known as uterine contraction, or it may also be caused by inflammation. It is very important to take care of the uterus after an abortion.
