Patient's question:
Medical history: One month after an abortionThis is my first period after the abortion, but it only came with a few drops. May I ask the doctors if I can take Shenghua Decoction to warm the meridians and nourish blood now?
Thank you
Follow-up question to the first question: Is it normal to have abdominal pain after drinking Shenghua Decoction?
Doctor's answer:
After a miscarriage, menstruation usually occurs 30-40 days later. Based on your description, you should visit a hospital for a gynecological ultrasound examination to identify the cause. Generally, menstruation typically returns about a month after an induced abortion, and irregular menstruation may occur in the first three months. If you experience abdominal pain before menstruation, it is considered a normal physiological response before the onset of menstruation. Close monitoring is necessary. If the pain intensifies or lasts for an extended period, it may indicate poor uterine recovery, and you should seek a formal hospital for a clear diagnosis to avoid delaying treatment and worsening the condition.
