Is it normal to have a reduced menstrual flow after childbirth?

Patient's question:

Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:
Okay, now my period is quite light, what's going on? About past treatment history and effectiveness: I haven't been treated. What kind of help do I want: I want to ask what the cause is

Doctor's answer:

Irregular menstruation is one of the most common consequences of an abortion without anesthesia. After an abortion without anesthesia, ovulation or corpus luteum function may be affected, which can lead to irregular menstruation in women. Additionally, if a woman is not in a good mood after an abortion, it can also affect the normal menstrual cycle, resulting in irregular menstrual cycles, reduced menstrual flow, or prolonged menstruation. If menstruation is delayed for a long time, it is recommended to go to the hospital for relevant examinations.
After an artificial abortion, it is even more important to pay attention to hygiene of the external genitalia. Wash with warm water 1-2 times a day and change sanitary napkins frequently. Avoid soaking in a bath for 2 weeks or if vaginal bleeding does not stop. Abstain from sexual activity for one month to prevent infections of the reproductive organs.
