How long does it take to get menstruation after curing the uterus?

When many women undergo abortion, the operation is not very successful, resulting in the tissue inside the uterus not being completely cleaned out, so they will undergo a uterine curettage for further cleaning. However, uterine curettage surgery will affect women's physiology, often causing delayed menstruation. So, how long does it take for menstruation to come after uterine curettage? Let’s take a closer look below.

Before we understand how long it takes to get your period after a curettage, let’s first understand what a curettage is. Uterine curettage is a remedial measure implemented when medical abortion is not completely completed. Since the uterus is damaged after curettage, resulting in menstrual disorders, menstruation usually occurs about forty days after the operation. But the specific time varies from person to person. Although medical abortion is a new medical development in the past two decades and has brought great benefits to female friends, not every woman who has an unexpected pregnancy can use medical abortion. When using it, you must pay attention to whether the indications match.

A small number of women experience menstrual disorders such as prolonged menstruation, irregular cycles, and amenorrhea after uterine curettage. Because the uterus is severely traumatized after a curettage operation and it takes some time to recover, the menstrual cycle will also be prolonged, which is normal. However, if you haven't had your period for a long time, you may still get pregnant again. Generally, menstruation comes one month after curing the uterus, but there are certain individual differences. Some people may take two or three months to resume normal menstruation. If prolonged bleeding occurs after medical abortion, it is abnormal and you need to go to the hospital to clarify your physical condition in time.

In addition, women after uterine curettage should also pay attention to the following points:

First, do not eat raw, cold, spicy food, do not drink alcohol, increase nutrition, and focus on a light and nutritious diet;

Second, do not have sex for one month, and take contraceptive measures to avoid suffering again;

Third, pay attention to the hygiene of the lower body, avoid bathing in a tub, take a shower instead, and keep warm.

Fourthly, women should take a 2-week rest after uterine curettage and avoid heavy physical labor and contact with cold water during this period.

The above is an introduction to how long it takes for menstruation to come after uterine curettage. I hope it will be helpful for women to understand. Although uterine curettage can get rid of the incompleteness caused by abortion, it often causes complications. In addition to going to a regular hospital for surgery, you must pay attention to these postoperative precautions and strive to restore your body to normal as soon as possible.
