How long does it take to have normal menstruation after a miscarriage? What are the reasons for delayed menstruation after a miscarriage?

The question that people who have had miscarriages are generally concerned about is when menstruation will return to normal after miscarriage. Generally, menstruation may be delayed or postponed after miscarriage, so how long will it take for menstruation to return to normal after miscarriage?

It is normal to have menstruation 1-3 months after an abortion. Generally, menstruation comes about one month after an abortion, but due to the recovery of the endometrium and ovaries and the influence of endocrine, there may be temporary abnormalities, and menstruation can be postponed to three months after an abortion. However, if you have sex after an abortion, the possibility of pregnancy cannot be ruled out. Therefore, sexual intercourse is prohibited within one month after an abortion.

After artificial abortion, the ovaries can generally resume ovulation function within 22 days, and menstruation will come in about 1 month. However, a small number of women experience menstrual disorders such as prolonged menstruation, irregular cycles, and amenorrhea after artificial abortion. This situation generally returns to normal after 2-3 months, and a few people last longer. The menstrual period after the abortion will also vary according to the number of days of pregnancy and the individual's physical constitution. Generally speaking, the menstrual period after early pregnancy abortion will follow the second menstrual cycle, and in many cases, due to the changes in the body's hormones caused by painless abortion, ovulation may also be postponed, and the menstrual period will also be postponed. Therefore, there will be a phenomenon of no menstrual period one or several months after painless abortion. If the menstrual period is delayed for more than 7-10 days, be sure to go to the hospital for a detailed examination.

The reasons why menstruation is delayed after abortion are

1. After pregnancy, a series of changes will occur in the female body, such as the ovaries stop ovulating, the corpus luteum continues to exist, the endometrium no longer changes periodically, and the hormone levels in the body change significantly. However, it still takes some time for the relevant organs in the body to recover and the hormone levels to adjust. Therefore, temporary amenorrhea or delayed menstruation often occurs, which is an inevitable phenomenon. Therefore, women do not need to worry too much, just relax and wait for recovery.

2. Abortion is a harm to pregnant women both mentally and physically, especially to unmarried pregnant women or women who have never given birth. It always takes some time to recover. However, due to the advancement of abortion technology, women can have an abortion while they are sleeping, and the operation can be performed with visual micro-tubes, so the physical harm to women is almost zero. It also greatly reduces the psychological harm to women and helps their recovery.

3. Pregnancy again. Some women do not pay attention after the operation and cannot resist their husbands’ pestering. They have sex again before they fully recover, which leads to a second pregnancy. This is very dangerous. Sexual intercourse must be prohibited within one month after the abortion, and attention must be paid to contraception.
