Is it normal to have delayed menstruation after miscarriage?

Many women choose to have an abortion after becoming pregnant. This causes delayed menstruation, so many women are particularly worried. Therefore, they want to fully understand whether it is normal to have delayed menstruation after abortion. The following content provides a detailed introduction to these aspects. For many women who have had abortions, in order to have a more comprehensive understanding, you can read the introduction below.

Some women experience delayed menstruation after having an abortion - their menstruation does not come on the day they should have in the second month. So they worried that maybe their uterus was scratched. They went to the hospital for a check-up with great concern, but it turned out that there was nothing wrong. So they are even more confused: "If there is no problem, why not have menstruation?" In fact, to understand this problem, we have to start with "abortion".

The so-called "abortion" is to use artificial methods, that is, use surgical instruments to remove embryonic tissue or fetus within 12 weeks of pregnancy from the uterine cavity in order to achieve the purpose of terminating pregnancy. Although abortion is a minor operation, it is still an operation after all, and it is inevitable that it will cause damage or complications, such as low back pain, leg pain, heel pain, weakness, incomplete uterine suction causing bleeding or inflammation, etc. In addition, after an abortion, the uterus, ovaries and other reproductive organs as well as physical strength need a recovery process, so after an abortion, it is equivalent to having to sit for a "small confinement period".

So, what is the reason for amenorrhea after abortion? Generally speaking, there are several reasons:

1. "Abortion" is a surgical operation after all. Pregnant women are prone to nervousness and fear, especially unmarried girls who get pregnant, who have a heavier psychological burden. This negative mental factor can cause functional secondary amenorrhea in a short period of time. In fact, these women only need to let go of their mental burdens. Once the brain function returns to normal, menstruation will come naturally and return to the normal regular cycle.

2. After abortion, endocrine system changes occur, especially the level of human chorionic gonadotropin drops suddenly, which makes the ovaries unable to respond normally for a while, thus causing amenorrhea. After a period of time, when the body's endocrine hormones adjust, menstruation will occur.

3. During an abortion, the endometrium will inevitably be damaged to a certain extent, and it will take some time to return to normal. If too much endometrium is scraped away during abortion, the endometrium cannot be completely repaired in a short period of time, and amenorrhea is likely to occur during this period. Once the endometrium is repaired, menstruation will occur naturally.

Many women choose to have an abortion and then their menstruation is delayed, so they are particularly worried and want to know if this is normal. The above content gives a detailed introduction. I believe that many women have gained a comprehensive understanding through the above introduction. If the delay is not long, is this normal? If the delay is relatively long, you must adjust your menstruation as soon as possible to make your menstruation normal.
