After surgery, how long does it usually take for menstruation to return?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, after artificial abortion, the ovaries generally recover ovulation function within 22 days, and menstruation usually returns after about 1 month. However, some women may experience menstrual disorders such as prolonged menstruation, irregular cycles, or amenorrhea after artificial abortion. This condition usually normalizes within 2-3 months, but for a few, the duration may be longer. However, if sexual activity occurs shortly after an artificial abortion, the possibility of pregnancy cannot be ruled out.
