What's wrong with not having a period after an abortion?

Patient's question:

I have had lower abdominal pain for a few days every month since my abortion, and my period hasn't come for nearly five months. I had the procedure at the Dehui Maternal and Child Health Hospital on San Central Street.

Doctor's answer:

The situation of menstruation after a procedure varies depending on the individual's pregnancy duration and physical constitution. Generally, menstruation typically resumes in the second cycle after an early pregnancy abortion. In many cases, however, the hormonal changes induced by the procedure may delay ovulation, leading to a corresponding delay in the menstrual cycle. As a result, it is possible to experience a delay of one or more months in the return of menstruation. If menstruation is delayed by more than 7-10 days, it is advisable to visit the hospital for a detailed examination.
