How long does menstruation usually last after a miscarriage?
Menstruation occurs approximately one month after an abortion. After an abortion, normal menstruation may be affected due to the rapid withdrawal of hormones in the body. Generally speaking, the ovaries can resume ovulation function within 22 days after surgery, and menstruation begins around one month later. However, there are also a few women who experience menstrual disorders such as prolonged periods, varying cycle lengths, and amenorrhea after abortion.
The timing of menstruation after an abortion may vary depending on the time of pregnancy and individual physical condition. Symptoms such as reduced menstrual flow after an abortion generally improve after 2-3 months. If menstrual irregularities persist for a long time after an abortion, or if menstruation has not occurred for more than 50 days, it is necessary to go to the hospital for examination in a timely manner. In addition, if there is fever, pain, excessive vaginal discharge, and odor after abortion, one should be alert to whether there is postoperative infection, such as pelvic inflammatory disease and appendicitis.

Artificial abortion is an invasive procedure inside the uterine cavity, which can cause uterine contractions after curettage and may result in mild abdominal pain or lower back pain, as well as a small amount of vaginal bleeding. These conditions usually last for several days and there is no need to worry excessively. If vaginal bleeding lasts for more than 10 days, or if the amount of bleeding exceeds menstrual flow, accompanied by fever, lower abdominal pain, vaginal discharge odor, etc., it is necessary to go to the hospital to investigate the cause. I still need to go to the hospital for a follow-up examination in a month.
After abortion, attention should be paid to rest and physical labor should be avoided, especially standing for long periods of time to avoid pelvic congestion.
