How long does it take to get your period after an abortion? What are the reasons for not getting your period after an abortion?

Abortion is indeed very harmful to women's bodies, especially some women who don't know when they will have their menstrual period after having an abortion. Abortion refers to the termination of pregnancy by surgery. Many women who have painless abortions do not know how long it will take for menstruation to come after an abortion. And some women's menstruation is delayed after an abortion, which is very worrying. So how long is it normal for menstruation to come after an abortion?

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

After an abortion, the ovaries can generally resume ovulation within 22 days. Menstruation will occur in about one month, but a few women experience menstrual disorders such as prolonged menstruation, irregular cycles, and amenorrhea after an abortion. This situation generally returns to normal after 2-3 months, and a few people last longer. The menstrual period after an abortion also varies according to the number of days of pregnancy and individual constitution. Generally speaking, the menstrual period after an early pregnancy abortion will follow the second menstrual cycle. In many cases, ovulation may be delayed due to changes in hormones caused by painless abortion. At the same time, the menstrual period will be postponed, so there will be a phenomenon of not having a menstrual period for one month or several months after a painless abortion. If the menstrual period is delayed for more than 7-10 days, you must go to the hospital for a detailed examination.

The reasons why menstruation is delayed after abortion include:

1. After pregnancy, a series of changes will occur in women's bodies. For example, 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 trauma for pregnant women, both mentally and physically. Especially for unmarried pregnant women and women who have never given birth, it takes time to recover. Now, due to the advancement of abortion technology, women can have an abortion while sleeping, and the operation can be performed with a visual micro-tube, which causes almost no physical damage to women. At the same time, it also greatly reduces the psychological damage to women and helps them recover.

3. Pregnancy again. Some women are not careful after the operation and cannot stand the husband's pestering. Having sex again before full recovery can lead to a second pregnancy, which is very dangerous. Sexual intercourse must be prohibited within one month after the abortion, and contraception must be done well.
