Less menstrual leave after abortion

Many women will experience menstrual abnormalities after having an abortion. Not only will the menstrual cycle be disrupted, but the amount of menstruation may also increase or decrease. Therefore, abortion can cause great damage to the uterus. If a woman continues to bleed after having an abortion, she may need a curettage, which will make the inner wall of the uterus thinner. So is it normal to have less menstruation after an abortion?

What is the reason for less menstrual flow after abortion?

First, abortion surgery can easily cause tension and anxiety in patients, resulting in less menstrual flow in a short period of time. After the abortion surgery, the patient's mental burden is relieved and the menstrual flow will slowly adjust to normal.

Second, a small number of patients have scanty menstruation or amenorrhea due to some residual tissue after curettage or surgery, and need a second operation to remove the unhealthy tissue and restore normal menstruation.

Third, the abortion operation causes adhesion of the cervix or uterine cavity. The symptoms of cervical adhesions are scanty menstruation and periodic abdominal pain. Intrauterine adhesions occur because the endometrium is damaged and the amount of endometrium decreases during surgery, which results in a corresponding decrease in menstrual volume.

Fourth, multiple abortions cause extensive endometrial lesions, and some patients may even experience amenorrhea.

Fifth, due to the stimulation of abortion surgery, patients may suffer from stress-induced endocrine abnormalities, premature ovarian failure, and ovarian function problems, which will affect the amount of menstruation and require going to the hospital for treatment according to the situation.

After an abortion, the menstrual flow becomes scanty. On the one hand, this is because the hormone levels in the body change after the abortion; on the other hand, abortion has a certain damaging effect on the endometrium, which can lead to scanty menstrual flow. Generally, after an abortion, routine anti-inflammatory and blood circulation treatments are required. At the same time, medications are also needed to regulate menstruation, help repair the endometrium, and restore hormone levels in the body. Generally, you can take combined short-acting contraceptives, such as Marvelon or Yasmin, to regulate menstruation for 3 months. You should eat more high-quality protein foods, eggs, milk, lean meat, soy products, etc., and have a comprehensive and diversified diet. Avoid partial and picky eating, and avoid the intake of various irritating foods. You can also consider taking Progynova combined with progesterone for menstrual regulation treatment, which can also help improve scanty menstruation. In addition to Western medicine treatment, you can also use some Chinese patent medicines in combination for symptomatic treatment. For example, you can take deer placenta paste, donkey-hide gelatin, Dingkundan or Kuntai granules and other drugs for auxiliary treatment, and the effect is relatively better.
