How long does it take to get your period after an abortion?

The ovaries of a miscarriage usually resume ovulating function in about 22 days, and menstruation usually comes within one month to forty-five days after the miscarriage. Some women may experience a delay of a few days, which is normal. Don't panic. During this period, you should have a balanced diet, maintain a good mood, and actively prevent infection after miscarriage. If you do not have your period for a long time, it is recommended that you go to the original hospital for treatment as soon as possible.

Menstruation usually comes about one month after abortion, but due to the recovery of the endometrium and ovaries and endocrine factors, temporary abnormalities may occur. The adjustment period can be 3 months. However, if you have sexual intercourse after an abortion, the possibility of getting pregnant again cannot be ruled out. Therefore, sexual intercourse is prohibited within one month after the abortion.

After an abortion, the ovaries will resume their normal ovulation function in a short period of time. It is normal to have irregular menstruation within 3 months after an abortion, and the menstrual cycle may sometimes be affected by external factors. After an artificial abortion, the ovaries can generally resume ovulation function within 22 days, and menstruation will occur in about 1 month. However, a small number of women experience menstrual disorders such as prolonged menstruation, irregular menstrual periods, and amenorrhea after artificial abortion. This condition usually returns to normal after 2-3 months, but in a few people it lasts longer.

The menstrual period after an abortion will also vary depending on the number of days of pregnancy and individual physical condition. Generally speaking, the second menstrual cycle will follow after early pregnancy abortion. In many cases, the time of menstruation may vary depending on the changes in the body's hormones caused by painless abortion, which may also lead to delayed ovulation and menstruation. Therefore, there may be a phenomenon of not having menstruation for one month or several months after painless abortion.

If your period is delayed for more than 7-10 days, you must go to the hospital for a detailed examination. If your menstruation does not come or other abnormal conditions occur 40-50 days after an abortion, it is recommended to go to the hospital for examination in time.

Reasons for delayed menstruation after abortion include:

1. After pregnancy, a series of changes will occur in a woman's body, such as the ovaries stop ovulating, the corpus luteum continues to exist, the endometrium no longer undergoes cyclical changes, and the hormone levels in the body change significantly. Artificial abortion suddenly terminates pregnancy. Although the embryo in the uterus is scraped out, 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.

2. Abortion is a harm to pregnant women both mentally and physically, especially to unmarried women or those who have never given birth. It is very likely to cause functional secondary amenorrhea, and the menstrual period can only return to normal after the higher nervous activity of the brain is restored.

3. During an abortion, not only the embryo is scraped out, but almost all of the endometrium in the uterine cavity is removed. It takes a process for the uterus to fully recover, during which time amenorrhea will occur. The above are questions about how long it takes to get your period after an abortion.
