What is the reason for not having menstruation for a month after medical abortion?

Many young people suffer from unwanted pregnancies due to improper contraceptive measures. However, neither of them was ready to be a father or mother, so they had no choice but to choose abortion. Abortion includes surgical abortion and medical abortion. The former may be more expensive due to the use of high-tech methods, but it is relatively safe. Some female friends think that there is not much difference between surgical abortion and medical abortion, so they directly choose medical abortion. Sometimes this practice may bring hidden dangers to the body.

So what happens if you don’t have your period one month after a medical abortion? Medical abortion can lead to some sequelae, such as irregular menstruation, gynecological diseases, etc., which are things women don’t take into consideration. After medical abortion, the endometrium is traumatized and takes some time to recover. However, due to differences in each person's body, irregular menstruation may occur. In addition, some women disrupt the body's hormonal balance, affecting ovulation and causing changes in menstruation.

Uterine cleaning after medical abortion may be one of the causes of irregular menstruation. If the endometrium is scraped excessively during uterine cleaning, causing it to be damaged or too thin, the amount of menstruation will decrease. Because menstruation is the process of periodic shedding of the endometrium under the influence of endocrine hormone levels, thin or damaged endometrium can lead to irregular menstruation.

What are the hazards of medical abortion? The hazards of medical abortion are mainly manifested in the following aspects:

1. It may easily cause incomplete abortion. Some women suffer incomplete miscarriage after taking the medicine, which affects uterine contraction and the repair of endometrial wounds, causing a significant increase in vaginal bleeding, which is 2-3 times more than the normal menstrual volume. In severe cases, heavy bleeding may occur, leading to anemia and shock, requiring blood transfusion and emergency surgery to curettage and stop the bleeding.

2. Excessive damage to the uterus. The patients mainly present with ectopic pregnancy and use of medical abortion, and severe complications may occur such as uterine adhesion or incomplete rupture. Although this situation is relatively rare in clinical practice, it does occur from time to time and we need to be vigilant. The main reason for this consequence is that the patient's ectopic pregnancy (mainly fallopian tube pregnancy) was not discovered in advance, resulting in the rupture of the patient's fallopian tube after the use of the drug, leading to the occurrence of ectopic pregnancy. In severe cases, it can also cause uterine stroke and other complications.

3. It can easily cause gynecological inflammation. After a woman takes anti-pregnancy drugs, the embryonic sac tissue in the uterine cavity can be discharged on the same day. Sometimes the pregnancy tissue is not completely discharged, the uterine membrane is not restored well, and vaginal bleeding lasts for a long time, which can last for 2-3 weeks or even 1-2 months. Long-term chronic blood loss can cause anemia and reduce the body's resistance. At this time, bacteria often travel back through the vagina and cause inflammation of the endometrium.

4. Affect future fertility. If an unmarried woman has repeated pregnancies and miscarriages, the endometrium may be repeatedly damaged. Because the endometrium is damaged, once they need to have a normal pregnancy, they are prone to placenta previa, which can cause heavy prenatal bleeding. Some women also experience habitual miscarriage due to multiple artificial abortions.

No matter what the reason is for not wanting a child, he is a living being and we have no right to deprive him of the right to come into this world. Therefore, we must take effective contraceptive measures before we are ready to have children. At the same time, if your menstrual period is irregular after medical abortion, you must seek medical attention in time to avoid delaying the treatment and causing lifelong regrets.
