Patient's question:
I had an abortion surgery on November 19th. The first day after the surgery, there was some bleeding, but not much. It stopped that night. On the 27th, I went shopping and had bleeding again until the next day. On December 1st, I went out for a short time and had bleeding for several days, less than my usual menstrual amount. Since then, my period hasn't come.What kind of help do I need: Could you please tell me what might be the reason for this and if it's serious?
Doctor's answer:
The timing of menstruation after an induced abortion varies depending on the number of days since conception and individual physical conditions. Generally, it takes about 40 days after the procedure for the first menstrual period to return completely. If sexual activity occurs during this period, there is still a possibility of early pregnancy again! It is recommended that you undergo an ultrasound and a six-sex hormone test at a professional gynecological hospital to check the complete recovery of the endometrium and rule out pregnancy. Identify the cause of menstrual irregularities and treat accordingly! Take medication under the guidance of a doctor and avoid using it blindly on your own! Wishing you health!
