Doctor's answer:

Hello! Generally, the ovary can restore its ovulation function about 22 days after an induced abortion, and menstruation usually occurs around one month later. However, some people may delay it by a few days. Generally, menstruation occurring within 40 days after an induced abortion is considered within the normal range.
The timing of menstruation after an induced abortion varies depending on the duration of pregnancy. In early pregnancy, menstruation typically resumes with the second cycle. However, in many cases, due to differences in individual constitutions, the endometrium may be traumatized after an induced abortion and requires a longer recovery period. Some women may also experience menstrual irregularities as a result of the procedure. Additionally, hormonal changes induced by an induced abortion may delay ovulation, leading to a corresponding delay in menstruation, which can result in no menstruation for several months after the procedure. If this occurs, it is best to seek a detailed examination at a regular hospital.
