Patient's question:
Hello! I had an abortion half a month ago. In the morning, my stomach hurts badly. After the abortion, there was blood flow from the lower part for 5 days, and then for 2 more days, there was a small amount of blood, very little, and after one day, it stopped. Next, the color of the discharge was initially yellow and brown, and after 6 days, it became normal white discharge, which is quite a lot every day. Why does my stomach hurt badly? What's happening with the discharge? Is my period coming normally?Doctor's answer:
It's not normal; it needs anti-inflammatory treatment. Don't worry too much. Generally, menstruation will return about 40 days later. After a female undergoes an abortion, hormonal changes in the body and damage to the endometrium during the surgery can lead to changes in menstruation for most women postoperatively. Some may experience an increase or decrease in menstrual flow, while others may have delayed menstruation, and so on. After such changes occur, menstruation will gradually return to normal after about 2-3 cycles.Advice: It is recommended to wait for a while longer. If menstruation remains abnormal for an extended period, it is advisable to visit a hospital for examination.
