Abortion is very common. Women must be cautious when choosing this surgery. Abortion has a great impact on women's bodies, so women should not choose it often.

The following is a detailed introduction so that you can have some understanding of this issue.

How long does it take to get menstruation after abortion?

Inserting an IUD after abortion is a reliable and safe contraceptive method. Generally, the menstrual cycle will resume about one month after insertion. It should be noted that it is normal for bleeding to occur within a week after the insertion of the IUD. You should rest adequately within 2 weeks, avoid heavy physical activity, pay attention to the cleanliness of the vulva, avoid taking a bath or having sex within 2 weeks to prevent infection. It is best not to eat raw, cold, spicy or irritating foods. Eat more nutritious foods, drink plenty of water and rest more.

Among women of childbearing age in my country who use contraceptive measures, about 85% use intrauterine devices, and about 10%-15% experience heavy menstruation, prolonged menstruation, shortened menstrual cycle, or irregular vaginal bleeding after intrauterine contraceptive device insertion.

The reason is that an inappropriately sized IUD may compress the endometrium and cause local tissue necrosis and inflammatory response. On the other hand, according to research, intrauterine devices can activate plasmin in the endometrial tissue, and this activated plasmin is not conducive to local coagulation function. Therefore, the enhanced activity of plasmin may be the reason for increased menstruation and irregular vaginal bleeding after the placement of the ring.

Clinically, the treatment of this disease is not complicated. First, after excluding various internal bleeding diseases and liver diseases, doctors can prescribe hemostatic and anti-inflammatory treatments, such as using vitamin C, vitamin K, Yunnan Baiyao and hemostatics to stop bleeding. At the same time, taking acetylspiramycin or metronidazole, cephalosporin and other anti-inflammatory drugs. If the treatment does not heal after about two months, you should consider removing the intrauterine device.

In addition, it should be noted that a diagnostic curettage should be performed at the same time as the IUD is removed, so that all necrotic and inflamed endometrial tissue can be eliminated, achieving the purpose of rapid and complete hemostasis. At the same time, the scraped endometrium should be sent for pathological examination.

After understanding how long it takes to get your period after an abortion, women should not do some strenuous exercise after having the IUD inserted, and they should not have sex immediately after having the IUD inserted, otherwise it will have a great impact on their bodies. At the same time, if the IUD is inserted, it will damage the female uterus, which women should also pay attention to.
