Postoperative bleeding is minimal and the color is dark, what's the reason?

Patient's question:

Dear Doctor,
I had an abortion procedure on December 6th under anesthesia. Post-surgery, the bleeding was minimal with bright red blood and stopped after five days. Starting on the 19th of the same month, I experienced bleeding with dark-colored blood, and the amount was less than my usual menstrual flow. Could you please advise whether the bleeding on the 19th was due to post-surgery bleeding or a normal menstrual period? I am very concerned and hope you can provide a clear explanation as soon as possible. Thank you!

Doctor's answer:

Commonly caused by endocrine disorders, it is generally related to your miscarriage. When necessary, please go to the gynecology department of the hospital for a comprehensive examination. Under the guidance of a local doctor, take Xiaoyao Pill orally combined with Wuji Baifeng Pill orally, or undergo traditional Chinese medicine treatment based on the syndrome differentiation and treatment by a local TCM practitioner to regulate it.
