After an abortion, why isn't my period coming?

Patient's question:

After my abortion, I've had lower abdominal pain for a few days every month, but my period hasn't come for almost five months. I had the procedure at the Dehui Maternal and Child Health Hospital on San Central Street.

Doctor's answer:

The situation of menstruation after surgery varies depending on the individual's pregnancy duration and physical constitution. Generally, menstruation will follow the second cycle after early pregnancy abortion. In many cases, due to the hormonal changes caused by the abortion, ovulation may be delayed, and menstruation may also be postponed accordingly, resulting in the phenomenon of no menstruation for one or several months after the surgery. If menstruation is delayed for more than 7-10 days, it is best to go to the hospital for a detailed examination.
