It's been six days since the abortion, and I'm going back to work. Is everything okay?

Patient's question:

It's been six days since I had an abortion and I went to work. Is that okay? Also, I want to ask how many days it usually takes for the bleeding to stop after an abortion?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, you cannot ignore this postpartum recovery period. Going back to work too early is not beneficial for your body's recovery. At least two weeks of rest are needed after an abortion, and it is also important to undergo follow-up examinations and anti-inflammatory treatments. Generally, bleeding for one to two weeks is common after an abortion.
