Patient's question:
I came on my period for a few days after my miscarriage, but after ten days, there was brown discharge again. It's been a few days now. What's going on?Doctor's answer:
After a miscarriage, menstruation usually comes back about a month later, but it can be earlier or later. After a woman has an abortion, hormonal changes in her body and damage to the endometrium during the surgery can cause menstrual changes in most women postoperatively. Some women may experience an increase or decrease in menstrual flow, while others may have delayed periods, and various other situations. After such changes occur, it usually takes about 2-3 cycles for menstruation to gradually return to normal.
