Many women are interested in the question: after how many days or months after the abortion, menstruation will begin. Of course, it's difficult to say for sure when a woman starts working ovaries and comes first months after an abortion - a lot depends on whether there will be complications from an abortion.
But not always they come immediately after a month after the abortion - the delay of the monthly can be from 10 days to 2 months. A longer absence of a period after abortion can indicate damage to the mucosa and scraping it up to deep muscle layers, with possible development of adhesions in the uterine cavity. Another reason why there is no long period after abortion is pregnancy. A woman can become pregnant 1-2 weeks after the abortion while restoring the ovaries, therefore it is recommended to use hormonal contraceptives several months after it.
When will the monthly come after the abortion?
Abortion is instrumental, medicamental and vacuum, each of them is carried out at different periods of pregnancy, and monthly after each species can occur at different times. Vacuum interruption of pregnancy is possible only up to 5 weeks, later you will have to use a different method. This abortion is performed under anesthesia, rarely causes complications, and the date of the monthly can be predicted fairly accurately. Since the gestation period is not more than a month, the next monthly after the vacuum interruption can be counted from the day of abortion, adding in days the average duration of the cycle of this woman, taking the day of abortion for the first day of the normal menstrual cycle.
Medication abortion is also done only in the early stages, therefore, monthly after the tabulated abortion occur as well as after the vacuum - as after normal menstruation. Problems can arise only in cases complicated by bleeding, and medical abortion itself does not affect the calendar cycle.
Monthly after instrumental and surgical abortion begin depending on the period of pregnancy on which it was made. The longer the period of pregnancy, the longer the discharge can continue and the longer it will be to restore the ovaries.
With an abortion up to 12 weeks, the menstruation usually recovers to 45 days after it, and with an abortion according to the indications from 12 to 22 weeks, the discharges occur as in the puerperium period - up to 2 months, and only then the ovaries are restored. After the next cycle with usual duration, menstruation starts, but no more than 2.5 months after such abortion, and the first menstruation can be scant with spotting discharges.
