What are the possible causes for missed periods after abortion?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I got an abortion a few days back, but this month, I did not get my period. Is there any problem?

Thanks.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

I believe you have developed irregular menses due to the abortion. The abortion you did, followed by the bleeding, has caused a change in your menstrual cycle and also a change in your sexual and reproductive hormone levels. So please do a hormone profile test and reply with the result. Please take the following.

  1. Take tablet Medroxyprogesterone 10 mg.
  2. Take tablet Norethisterone 5 mg.

If your symptoms persist, schedule another follow-up appointment via chat, phone, or video consultation.

I hope this information will help you.

Thanks.
