Patient's question:
My girlfriend has not had her period more than forty days after taking medication for an abortion. She had a medical check-up at the hospital 30 days after the abortion and found no abnormalities. After that, she used a pregnancy test strip, which did not show pregnancy. What could be the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
Post-abortion endocrine disorders can lead to fixed ovulation. Without taking contraceptive measures in daily life, pregnancy is possible. Generally, menstruation resumes 40 to 50 days after medication abortion. If menstruation has not arrived by the 50th day, please take an early pregnancy test. Medication abortion is relatively simple and causes less harm to the body, but the bleeding period is longer, and there may be menstrual delay. Since the early pregnancy test is negative, relax and wait patiently.
