Doctor's answer:
Hello! After an abortion, the bleeding varies from person to person. Some may experience almost no bleeding or very minimal bleeding, while others may have no bleeding for a few days before starting to have brownish discharge. Some may bleed continuously for about a week after the procedure. Your situation is completely normal, so don't worry!After an abortion, avoid using cold water and pay attention to personal hygiene. Change your underwear and pants frequently. If you are still bleeding, it is strictly forbidden to douch or take a bath to prevent infection. Abstain from sexual activity for at least one month after the procedure.
