Patient's question:
Doctor, it's been almost two months since I had an abortion, and my period still hasn't come. I'm very worried. During the abortion, I also had a cervical adhesiolysis procedure, and now it's been two months since my last period. Can I take traditional Chinese medicine for regulation? Or can I get a progesterone shot to induce menstruation?Doctor's answer:
You have not had your menstrual period for two months after the miscarriage surgery. This situation should be considered whether it is due to excessive damage to the endometrium caused by the miscarriage surgery or postoperative complications such as uterine adhesion and cervical adhesion. It is recommended to take medication to promote the onset of menstruation. Progesterone can be used to promote the shedding of the endometrium, leading to menstruation. After that, appropriate Chinese medicine treatment for regulating menstruation should be administered. If there is still no menstruation after using progesterone, and symptoms such as abdominal pain (which are typical of menstruation) appear, it should be considered whether there is uterine adhesion. It may be necessary to consider undergoing hysteroscopy for examination and treatment.
