Patient's question:
After taking medication for an abortion, my period stopped within a week. However, on the thirteenth day, I started bleeding again, but it wasn't much.Doctor's answer:
Hello, generally speaking, after an early pregnancy abortion, menstruation will follow the second menstrual cycle. In many cases, due to the hormonal changes caused by the abortion, ovulation may be delayed, and menstruation may also be postponed accordingly, resulting in the phenomenon of not having a menstrual period for one or several months after the abortion.Advice: After an abortion, hormone levels cannot immediately return to pre-pregnancy levels. Therefore, it usually takes about 40 days for most people to restore normal menstruation, while some individuals may need 60 to 90 days.
